Precautions when using gantry machining center

Gantry machining center refers to a machining center in which the axis of the Z axis of the main shaft is perpendicular to the worktable. The overall structure is a large machining center machine with a double column and a top beam forming a portal structure frame, and there is a beam in the middle of the double column. Especially suitable for machining large workpieces and workpieces with complex shapes.

We also need to pay attention to the following points when using:

1. Proficient in operation and master the performance and characteristics of the machine. It must be ensured that the emergency stop switch can act quickly and effectively in an emergency to avoid injury accidents.

2. Wear labor protection equipment according to the regulations, such as wearing labor insurance shoes, etc., but it must be pointed out that it is strictly forbidden to operate with gloves. Once the gloves are caught by the machine, the consequences will be disastrous.

3. When the equipment is working, do not touch the electronic switch with wet hands, and do not touch any moving parts with your hands to avoid electric shock.

4. Do not place tools or non-machined workpieces on machines or moving objects.

5. The computer table or work table next to the machine must be sturdy and shall not be placed on a mobile or unfixed desktop.

6. When loading and unloading the workpiece, the machine must be stopped first, and attention should be paid to maintaining a certain distance between the workpiece and the tool. Do not open the front door and left and right protective covers at will when the machine is running to avoid personal injury.

7. After the tool is set, please do a test run to make sure the program is correct.

8. When the machine is turned off after power failure or emergency stop, the operator should restore the three-axis to its original mechanical position.

9. Do not dismantle the travel switch or any related parts of the protection switch without authorization.

10. Before leaving the machine after finishing the work, the operator cuts off the control power of the operation panel and turns off the main switch of the electrical box.
