View MorePractical points for preventive maintenance of key components
Spinneret maintenance
Cleaning process: Use an ultrasonic cleaner (frequency 40kHz, temperature 60℃) with a special cleaning agent to avoid metal brushes scratching the plate surface.
Test standard: aperture deviation ≤0.01mm, surface roughness Ra ≤0.4μm (detected by laser diameter gauge and white light interferometer).
Metering pump maintenance
Pressure calibration: Use a digital pressure gauge (accuracy ±0.1bar) to detect the outlet pressure every week, and replace the gear or seal ring when the deviation is >5%.
Lubrication management: Inject high-temperature grease (dropping point ≥300℃) every month, and control the oil injection volume to 1/3 of the pump body volume.
Hot roller maintenance
Temperature control: Check the thermocouple accuracy daily (error ≤±1℃), and re-grind the roller surface when the surface temperature difference is >2℃.
Alignment: Use a laser alignment instrument to adjust the parallelism of the hot roller and the wire guide every quarter, with a deviation of ≤0.05mm.
Three key measures to reduce downtime rate
Spare parts inventory management
Establish ABC classification method:
Class A (high value/long delivery period): metering pump gear, hot roller bearing (safety inventory ≥2 pieces)
Class B (wearing parts): seal ring, wire guide hook (safety inventory ≥5 pieces)
Class C (common parts): bolts, gaskets (purchased on demand)
Application of condition monitoring technology
Install vibration sensors (threshold ≤4.5mm/s) to monitor the motor bearing status and provide early warning of 70% of potential faults.
Use infrared thermal imagers to detect the temperature of the electrical cabinet and promptly troubleshoot abnormal temperature rise (>50℃).
Staff training and standardized operations
Develop the "Barmag Spinning Machine Maintenance SOP" to clarify 12 key operating steps and acceptance criteria.
Carry out fault simulation drills every month (such as emergency treatment of metering pump jam) to shorten the mean time to repair (MTTR).
Maintenance cost optimization suggestions
Original parts vs compatible parts:
Core components such as metering pump gears should be given priority to original parts (life extension of 50%), and consumable parts such as guide wire hooks can be certified compatible parts (cost reduction of 40%).
Outsourcing service selection:
It is recommended to entrust Barmag certified service providers for annual overhaul, whose spare parts channels are formal and maintenance records are traceable.
Quantitative evaluation of maintenance effect
The effectiveness of maintenance strategy is verified by the following indicators:
Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE): Target ≥ 85% (current industry average 72%)
Single spindle maintenance cost: controlled at ≤ 0.3 yuan/spindle·day (60% lower than before maintenance)
Unplanned downtime: ≤ 8 hours per month (70% reduction in sudden failures through preventive maintenance)
