Forging equipment is an indispensable tool in the production of petrochemical forgings. The correct selection and maintenance of these equipment can not only ensure the quality and production efficiency of the forging, but also extend the service life of the equipment and reduce the production cost. This paper will discuss the selection and maintenance of petrochemical forging equipment, and provide useful reference for related enterprises.
Forging equipment selection
Equipment type selection: According to the forging material, shape and size requirements, choose the appropriate forging equipment type. For example, for large forgings, you can choose a die forging machine or a free forging machine; For small and medium-sized forgings, you can choose a hammer forging machine or a spiral press. When selecting the type of equipment, it is also necessary to consider the structure, performance, efficiency and ease of operation of the equipment.
Equipment specification determination: When selecting equipment specifications, it is necessary to comprehensively consider factors such as material, size and production batch of forgings. Too large equipment specifications may lead to waste of resources and increased costs, while too small equipment specifications may not be able to meet production needs. Therefore, when determining equipment specifications, adequate analysis and calculations are required.
Equipment quality control: When choosing forging equipment, the quality of the equipment is a very important consideration. It is necessary to choose a supplier with good reputation and reputation, and carry out strict quality testing and acceptance of the equipment. For critical components and wearing parts, material and process inspection and certification are also required.
Maintenance of forging equipment
Regular inspection: Regular inspection of forging equipment, including the appearance of equipment, structure, lubrication system, electrical system, etc. During the check, pay attention to the operating status, sound, and temperature of the device and rectify the faults in time.
Lubrication maintenance: The lubrication system of forging equipment is an important guarantee for the normal operation of the equipment. The lubricating oil needs to be changed regularly, and the lubrication system needs to be cleaned and maintained. Key components and wearing parts also need to be lubricated and protected.
Preventive maintenance: Preventive maintenance is an effective means to extend the service life of equipment and reduce the failure rate. Including regular tightening, adjustment, replacement of wearing parts and other operations of the equipment, as well as regular accuracy testing and calibration of the equipment.
Maintenance: When the device is faulty or abnormal, it needs to be repaired in time. In the maintenance process, it is necessary to pay attention to safety and conduct an in-depth analysis of the causes of the failure to avoid similar failures.
Records and training: Records the maintenance process of the equipment in detail, including the maintenance time, content, and parts to be replaced. This helps to track the maintenance history of the equipment and develop a more reasonable maintenance schedule. At the same time, operators should be trained to improve their operation skills and maintenance awareness.
The selection and maintenance of forging equipment for petrochemical forgings is the key link to ensure the quality and production efficiency of forgings. When selecting the equipment, it is necessary to consider the type, specification and quality of the equipment. When maintaining the equipment, regular inspection, lubrication maintenance, preventive maintenance and repair treatment are required. Through reasonable selection and maintenance measures, the failure rate of the equipment can be reduced, the service life can be extended and the production efficiency can be improved. In the future, with the continuous progress of science and technology and the innovation of equipment manufacturing technology, we look forward to more breakthroughs and development in the selection and maintenance of petrochemical forging equipment.
