Material Feeding Procedures
Guidelines for safe and efficient material feeding operations in compression equipment
Manual Feeding Procedures
- Suitable for small to medium batches or irregular materials
- Operators must wear appropriate protective equipment
- Feed materials smoothly into the feeding port
- Avoid excessive feeding that could block the channel
- Maintain safe distance from moving parts during feeding
Important: Never push materials into the feeding channel with hands; use specialized tools to assist. Ensure safe feeding process and neat material placement for subsequent compression operations.
Automatic Feeding System Adaptation
- Suitable for large batches of regularly shaped materials
- Improves feeding efficiency significantly
- Pre-test feeding conveyor or pushing device
- Ensure operating speed matches compression rhythm
- Regularly check transmission components and sensor sensitivity
Maintenance: Promptly clean debris from conveyor belt surface to prevent material sticking or slippage. Ensure uniform and stable feeding volume to reduce equipment downtime for adjustments.
Material Preparation Before Feeding
- Pre-feeding material processing improves feeding smoothness
- Sort materials to remove hard foreign objects
- Prevent scratching of feeding channel or equipment damage
- Prepare materials in uniform shape
- Avoid feeding oversized or loose materials directly
Optimization: Material size can be optimized through cutting, bundling, etc., ensuring smooth passage through the feeding channel and improving overall operational continuity.
Feeding Rhythm Coordination
- Coordinate with main equipment operation to avoid uneven load
- Adjust feeding frequency according to compression cycle
- Avoid excessive feeding in pursuit of speed
- Closely monitor equipment feedback during operation
- Watch for feeding jams or abnormal noises
Safety Protocol: If issues occur, immediately stop feeding and troubleshoot. Resume operation only after equipment returns to normal to ensure efficient connection between feeding and compression.
