1、 Machine tool control safety
1. Inexperienced operators
The operation of CNC machining centers requires professional training, but in practical use, some operators may not have sufficient experience and skills. This may lead to misoperation or entering the wrong program, resulting in safety hazards such as overload and collision.
Response method: Strengthen employee training, improve the skills and safety awareness of operators. At the same time, safety risks can be reduced by installing protective devices, writing operating procedures, and other measures.
2. Inadequate maintenance of machine tools
CNC machining centers also require regular maintenance and upkeep, but if the maintenance is not thorough or timely, it may lead to the failure of safety measures for the machine tool, posing significant safety hazards.
Response method: Establish a comprehensive equipment maintenance system, conduct regular inspections, and ensure the safe operation of the equipment. At the same time, attention should be paid to selecting high-quality machine tool components and accessories.
2、 Safe transportation of processed materials
1. Collisions and drops during transmission
The processed objects of CNC machining centers may be large or heavy components or workpieces, which are prone to collision or falling during transmission, resulting in equipment failure and personnel injury.
Response method: Strengthen the writing of operating procedures, design processing procedures and material handling plans reasonably, and prevent collision and falling accidents from occurring. At the same time, sensors, safety doors, and other devices are installed to monitor and control the transportation process of processed materials.
2. Burning or explosion of processed materials
Some of the processed materials may be flammable and explosive. If the precision of the machining center is not sufficient, it may cause sparks and heat to be generated by friction between the machine tool and the processed material, leading to combustion or explosion of the processed material.
Response method: Increase precision control during the processing, take explosion-proof safety measures to avoid friction and leakage during the process, and provide training and safety tips to operators.
3、 Other safety hazards
1. Electrical safety issues
Numerical control machining centers require a large amount of electricity, and if there are electrical hazards in the equipment, safety accidents such as electric shock or fire may occur.
Response method: Regularly inspect and maintain the electrical system of the equipment, following safety operating procedures and electrical safety standards.
2. Inadequate equipment maintenance and upkeep
Inadequate maintenance and upkeep of the equipment may result in machine tool malfunctions or failures, causing safety and property damage to the workers.
Response method: Equipment maintenance should develop the habit of regular and scheduled maintenance to ensure the normal operation of the equipment. At the same time, train maintenance personnel to improve their skills and assign them relevant management responsibilities.
【 Conclusion 】
CNC machining centers are important equipment in modern manufacturing, but there are also some safety hazards in use. If not identified and resolved in a timely manner, it may cause significant losses to the enterprise. Therefore, enterprises should fully understand the risk points of CNC machining centers, enhance safety awareness, strengthen training, and establish and improve corresponding safety management systems.
