Several Important Points When Using A Pipe Bending Machine

1. Water quality cleaning and maintenance of water cooling boxes
It is important to ensure that all equipment inside the pipe bending machine is filled with circulating water, which is a precautionary measure. At the same time, it is necessary to actively clean the water tank and replace the water every weekend, especially for the water that has already been injected, such as draining it and injecting fresh purified water or distilled water. The selection of circulating water is very important, which directly affects the efficiency of machine use, various consumables and accessories, and the lifespan of the host. It is recommended to control the water temperature at a constant temperature when using designated water. Especially in summer, when the water temperature is high, you must find a way to lower it. When cleaning the water cooling box, turn off the power of the entire machine and keep the water pipe at the outlet unobstructed, so that the water from the laser tube can automatically flow into the water tank. Turn on the power and try running for 2-3 minutes.
2: Cleaning and maintenance of optical lenses (this must be done daily and after turning off the entire machine)
In fact, for a pipe bending machine, its optical lenses are not located in the control console or water cooling box, but in the cutting machine. However, not all of the machine tools in the entire pipe bending machine are limited to the laser tube, laser head, and oscillating gun. Among them, there are full reflection mirrors, semi reflection mirrors, focusing mirrors, etc., which have different functions in different positions, all of which directly affect the size of the light spot, the accuracy and thickness of the pipe bending machine. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the optical lenses. These need to be done very carefully, and when wiping, special laser lens wiping paper with cleaning solution should be used to slowly rotate and wipe around the middle part of the lens.
3. Maintenance and cleaning of screw guide rails or linear guide rails (for this type of guide rail, cleaning can be quite challenging, and it is recommended to do so every two weeks)
The guide rail is just as important for the laser positioning of the pipe bending machine as the train track is to the train. Therefore, there are dedicated personnel to maintain and repair the train track. Therefore, the guide rail on the metal pipe bending machine definitely needs to be cleaned and maintained in this regard. The guide rail is relatively complex, and basically all core parts are positioned on the guide rail. In order to maintain the smoothness of the positioning, lubricating oil is often applied on it. This lubricating oil is very easy to adsorb some solid debris on it, which affects the smoothness of the positioning. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out maintenance in this regard. Use a dry cloth or cotton to wipe it until it is bright and free of dust, and then evenly distribute lubricating oil on each guide rail.
4: Regular inspection of screws and bearings
After running the pipe bending machine for a period of time, screws will definitely become loose. Not only have you heard of the story of a horse nail destroying a country, but it is also important not to lose weight in small things. Similarly, we cannot let a loose screw affect the entire machine. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly reinforce each screw one by one, especially after the first month of use of a new machine. It is necessary to regularly reinforce and inspect the bearings with more screws
5. Maintenance and cleaning of heat dissipation hair dryers
The hot air fan is a very important component, including the cooling fan of the control panel and the cooling fan of the water-cooled machine, which are all important parts and difficult to clean. However, cleaning must be done because after long-term use, the cooling fan is piled up with a lot of dust and debris, which affects the rotational efficiency of the fan, generates significant noise pollution, and is not conducive to exhaust and cooling the kitchen and bathroom. If there is improper heat and smoke discharge, it is necessary to turn off the power in a timely manner, remove the fan, and carry out large-scale cleaning treatment to ensure the efficiency and service life of the machine.
