-
Optimize Material Preparation
Process materials to achieve uniform particle size through crushing and screening. Control moisture content to prevent excessive friction or material buildup. Remove abrasive contaminants that accelerate wear on molds, rollers, and feeding components.
-
Implement Proper Lubrication Practices
Use specialized lubricants formulated for briquetting machine conditions. Apply at appropriate intervals to bearings, rollers, and drive mechanisms. Keep lubrication pathways clear of debris to ensure all moving parts remain protected from friction.
-
Regular Inspection and Timely Replacement
Conduct routine inspections to detect early wear signs like surface scratches or deformation. Adjust misaligned parts and tighten loose fasteners. Replace worn components promptly to prevent secondary damage and costly breakdowns.
-
Standardize Operational Protocols
Train operators in proper startup/shutdown procedures and steady feeding practices. Prevent overloading and foreign object entry. Document operational data to identify patterns that may indicate emerging wear issues.
Proactive approach: Preventing wear requires addressing material properties, lubrication, inspection, and operational protocols to maintain production efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, and extend equipment service life.
