What is the use and maintenance method of the slitter machine

The usage and maintenance methods of the slitter are essential to ensure its efficient, safe, and long-lasting operation. Here's a closer look at both of these aspects:

First, the use of the slitting machine

1. Prepare before booting

• Inspect and fill the main parts of the slitter with lubricating oil.

• Ensure electrical components are in good condition with no exposed wires or damaged parts.

• Turn on the electrical isolation switch, press the end reset button and the prepare processing button, adjust the machine to the open mode, and check whether the voltage and current are correct and stable.

2. Set the parameters

• Adjust the distance between the tool holders according to the size of the product to be slit.

• Set parameters such as film type, thickness, length, width, etc.

• Extract the required files from the relevant documents and set the winding length and width of the corresponding specification film.

3. Feeding and film threading

• Place the parent roll on the slitter unwinder and clamp the steel core with the control buttons.

• When there is no film on the slitting machine, use the film piercing device and function key to tie one end of the original film to the film threading chain eye, and activate the film piercing button.

4. Film splicing and operation

• Vacuum film splicing table is used to ensure that the film is evenly adsorbed on the film splicing table.

• Adjust the specifications, put on the paper core, and the pressure roller is in a state of readiness for operation.

• Start the machine operation, monitor the operation effect, and adjust the contact pressure, arc roller, edge material traction roller, guide edge, slitting speed and unwinding tension as needed.

5. Rewinding and unwinding

• When the roll runs to a set length, the machine automatically stops.

• Use the film release button to place the film on the prepared film removal trolley, cut the film and paste the film roll with sealing glue.

• Release the card head, check that each roll core leaves the paper core, and then proceed to the next slitting.

Second, the maintenance method of the slitting machine

1. Daily cleaning and inspection

• Clean and inspect the slitter every day to ensure that the surface of the equipment is free of debris and dust.

• Perform a full cleaning and inspection of the machine every two weeks, including electrical components, transmission parts, and lubrication system.

2. Lubrication and rust prevention

• Regularly refill lubricating oil to critical components to ensure smooth operation of the equipment.

• If the slitting machine is out of use for a long time, wipe all the shiny surfaces, apply anti-rust oil, and cover the whole machine with a plastic sleeve.

3. Tool and component maintenance

• Use high-quality slitting and cross-cutting knives to ensure slitting results.

• Regularly check the wear and tear of the knives and replace the severely worn knives in time.

• Real-time monitoring of wearing parts, regular adjustment and replacement.

4. Personnel training and safe operation

• Improve the technical quality and degree of the personnel who operate the slitting machine, be responsible for controlling the local operation, and shall not operate it by themselves without commitment.

• Operators should be familiar with the operating procedures and safety precautions of the equipment to ensure that there are no violations during operation.

• During the operation of the equipment, it is strictly forbidden to touch the transmission parts to prevent accidents.

To sum up, the use and maintenance methods of the slitting machine involve many aspects, including preparation before start-up, setting parameters, feeding and film threading, film connection and operation, rewinding and unloading, as well as daily cleaning and inspection, lubrication and rust prevention, tool and component maintenance, personnel training and safe operation, etc. Only by fully mastering and strictly implementing these methods can we ensure the normal operation and long-lasting use of the slitter.
