The Automatic Wood hanger assembly machine is a crucial tool for wooden hangers manufacturer, especially for those involved in mass production. It is important to perform maintenance regularly in order to function properly, increase equipment lifespan and minimize system downtime. As a notable player in automation equipment and intelligent mechanical systems manufacturing, we, at WECAN, manufacture and develop machinery that is both efficient and robust. Even the most advanced machines can and should be used with care in order to achieve the highest productive rates.
1. Maintenance Activities that we perform on a Day-to-Day Basis
Day to day care of the Automatic Wooden Hanger Assembly Machine is purely directed towards ensuring that the assembly machine:
- Cleans the Machine: There will always be dust, woods and such other residues that will be deposited in the assembly machine. Any exposed parts must be cleaned at the end of each working day in order to avoid any excessive clogging and weak the moving parts.
- Check Lubrication: All rotating joints and sliding mechanisms must be lubricated in order to allow them work seamlessly with minimal friction forces. Ensure that lubrication levels are adequate and maintained on a daily basis.
- Check whether the Sensor is Working Correctly: The alignment and calibration of the sensors concerning the assembly are carried out from time to time.
2. Weekly Maintenance Tasks
The weekly maintenance can be regarded a bit more demanding as the inspection and calibration carries on a little more:
- Assess the Components and Parts: Screws, bolts, belts and other components disintegrate over long use. A visual and functional check of components that are loose and their retightening on a weekly basis is necessary in order to promote constancy in performance.
- Examination for Correctness: During the assembly operation of an assembly line, there may occur some structural elements of assembly that are not correctly oriented. Weekly monitoring of calibrations helps avoid such errors during hanger assembly.
- Check for any Electrical Connections: There is a risk of electrical fittings and appliances having a loose connection or fraying wires or any other potential threat to the integrity and functioning capabilities.
3. Monthly Maintenance Tasks
The monthly tasks can be regarded as rather holistic in nature as the same is aimed at carrying out preventive measures and diagnostics;
- Conduct an Examination of the Whole System: A system examination enables checking of the machine’s software and mechanical functions. Here at WECAN, our machines have intelligent diagnostics which elevates this practice.
- Inspect Hydraulic and Pneumatic Systems: Pneumatic and hydraulic properties of a machine should not only be checked but their function should also be maintained because leaks or blockages of pressure can hinder the efficiency of the machine.
- Change Worn-Out Parts: It becomes necessary that some parts depending on usage be replaced on a monthly basis and this is not a good practice. To minimize possible downtime, it would be wise to have a stock of high wear parts such as belts or filters.
4. Quarterly and Annual Maintenance.
The maintenance which is performed quarterly as well as annually has to be performed by a trained technician as it involves complex procedures.
- Inspection and cleaning: Every three months, general maintenance, component cleaning and other activities to correct minor defects should be performed.
- Software Update and Calibration: Updating the machine support system’s programs, and control system’s measuring devices.
- Major system renovation: The timing of major renovations of the existing machine is vital to its performance lifecycle. Repairs of all essential spare parts, replacement of defective components and numerous tests to check the feasibility of the machine as a whole is done.
