Daily maintenance skills of aluminum ingot casting machine

2023-01-06

Aluminum ingot continuous casting unit is the key equipment in electrolytic aluminum production. At present, most of the aluminum ingot casting machines used by major domestic aluminum factories: this unit uses a proximity switch, which is easy to maintain and repair. For the electrical faults that occur during the operation of the unit, corresponding measures must be taken to eliminate them quickly and effectively to ensure the normal operation of the unit.

 

Daily maintenance skills of aluminum ingot casting machine

 

Routine maintenance of aluminum ingot casting machine

 

1. Always check whether the components are in good condition. Once a potential failure is found, it should be repaired or replaced immediately.

 

2. Soot blowing and fastening should be done regularly for each terminal block. The terminals on the fixture trolley are particularly easy to loosen due to movement.

 

3. Regularly test the insulation resistance of the motor and related circuits.

 

4. Check and adjust the limits frequently. Because the proximity switch is in the process of operation, some are easily loosened by vibration.

 

5. Regularly monitor the voltage of the PLC power supply, and test the insulation resistance of the PLC dedicated grounding wire (normal value <4Ω).

 

The daily maintenance of the aluminum ingot casting machine is very important. Always check whether the components of the aluminum ingot casting machine are in good condition. Once a hidden trouble is found, it should be repaired or replaced immediately, so as to prolong the service life of the aluminum ingot casting machine.
