Waste Plastic Crusher Before Start-Up Preparation

  • Comprehensively check whether the plastic waste crusher machine lines and electrical components are positive camps, to ensure that the machine is grounded, to avoid the casing being charged!
  • Toggle the pulley to see if the machine spindle jamming phenomenon, under the premise of keeping the spindle flexible and then press the start button, after start of the machine needs to run smoothly after the speed to meet the requirements before feeding, in the crushing process, if you find that there are abnormalities in the waste plastic crusher should be stopped immediately to check.
  • After a week of use to checking the industrial plastic shredder machine works empty all the bolts and the fastening blade is loose, the blade gap can reach the standard, and overhaul and adjustment.
  • Each time before starting the machine should be checked for debris in the working air of the plastic waste crusher machine debris.
  • Organize the plastic waste to be crushed to ensure that the material is free from stones, metal, and other hard materials.

Operation And Precautions

  • Start the waste plastic crusher motor, and the machine operation is normal after feeding.
  • The feeding should be even, avoiding the jamming or overloading of the motor when the feeding is large.
  • If you find the plastic waste crusher machine’s abnormal noise, you should immediately stop the machine to check.
  • Industrial plastic shredder machines should not have 24 hours of continuous operation, the machine temperature is too high, can be appropriate downtime cooling.
  • The machine should be cleaned up in time when it is shut down.
  • The waste plastic crusher should never be opened, cleaned, or repaired while it is in operation.
  • The plastic waste crusher machine should stop feeding before stopping, but the motor should continue to run for a period of time until the machine is completely discharged before stopping.

Maintenance And Overhaul

  • The waste plastic crusher spindle, bearings, reducer, etc. should be injected regularly into the lubricant according to the instructions.
  • Regularly check the gap between the blades in the plastic waste crusher machine chamber, and often check the blade tightening bolts to prevent the blade from loosening.
  • The worn parts of the industrial plastic shredder machine to be overhauled are the movable blade, fixed blade, bearings, blade fastening bolts, and screen mesh.
  • Maintenance of the blade of the waste plastic crusher can be replaced or ground according to the degree of wear and tear of the blade, blade installation should be adjusted to meet the gap, to ensure the smooth operation of the machine and the size of the crushed material.
  • Every six months to a year should be crusher moderate maintenance work, including the replacement of blades, replacement of bearings, and check of the rotating shaft, screen, and repair of the drive system.
  • Overhaul work every one to two years includes testing the overall stability of the plastic waste crusher machine, replacing the rotor, and checking the drive train and electrical control system.
