Plate Rolling Machine: Standardized Operation Requirements And Precautions For Use

plate rolling machine

Plate rolling machine is a general equipment for bending metal sheets into cylindrical, arc-shaped or other shaped workpieces. According to the principle of three points forming a circle, the relative position change and rotational motion of the workpiece are used to make the plate produce continuous plastic deformation to obtain a predetermined shape of the workpiece. Almost all steel materials formed into cylindrical shapes are rolled by plate rolling machines.

Pay attention to safety standardization when operating plate rolling machines

During the use of plate rolling machines, attention should be paid to safety standardization to reduce and eliminate the occurrence of dangerous accidents.

  • When controlling the distance between rollers, be sure to pay attention to the rotation of the rollers. Be sure to stop before reaching the limit to avoid accidents.
  • During the use of the plate rolling machine, the transmission mechanisms and connection parts should be checked and maintained frequently to keep them free of looseness and damage. During the bending process, there should be no slippage between the steel plate and the roller surface to prevent the roller surface from being pulled and injured.
  • During the rotation of the plate rolling machine, if abnormal sounds, vibrations, oil leaks, or impacts are found, the vehicle should be stopped immediately for inspection. When checking and repairing the hydraulic system, high-pressure oil should be prevented from escaping and injuring others. It is strictly forbidden to make steel plates directly on the machine without flattening the weld seam or leveling.
  • When the plate rolling machine is rotating and two or more operators are working at the same time, there must be a dedicated person to direct, and the division of labor must be clear during the command.
  • When leveling or rolling, the steel plate should be placed in the middle of the working roller, and the thickness of the steel plate should be reduced accordingly when placed aside. No one is allowed to approach when the roller is rotating, and clothes and hands are prohibited from being wrapped in the roller.

Four major precautions for the use of plate rolling machine

  1. When the large plate rolling machine is in operation, no part of the human body can be extended into the closed area of ​​the shearing machine.
  2. Machine adjustment must be carried out when it is parked.
  3. Do not roll and cut too thick materials to prevent damage to the machine tool.
  4. After the work is completed, the power supply must be disconnected, the machine tool must be cleaned, and lubricating oil must be added to the guide rails and blade positions.

Conclusion

Plate rolling machine is a kind of forging machine that can bend non-metallic plates into cones, spheres, cylinders or other shapes. It is widely used in boilers, shipbuilding, petroleum, woodworking, metal structures and other machinery manufacturing industries.
