Lifting and Installing Guillotine Scissors: A Step-by-Step Guide

After unpacking, the user must check whether the machine matches the packing list and pay attention to ensure that:

The. The machine tool was not damaged during handling. B. No machine parts are missing. w. The machine and parts are intact.

Guillotine lifting

When lifting the machine, suitable lifting equipment and wire ropes must be selected according to the weight of the machine, otherwise unexpected safety accidents may occur.

There is a lifting screw on the top of the cutting machine. When lifting, the lifting cable must be padded with soft objects to prevent damage to the paintwork (see figure below).

Guillotine lifting

Attention:

  • The machine's center of gravity is high, so be careful to avoid tipping over.
  • The machine should not be lifted by the oil tank, tool holder, oil cylinder, etc., but should be lifted by the lifting screw.
  • When transporting the machine to the intended location, suitable lifting equipment with a lifting load capacity must be used.
  • If there is no suitable lifting equipment, the lifting chain can be used. At the same time, pay attention to the proper specification and method of utilizing the current carrying capacity.
  • Do not use lifting ropes for lifting.

Installation of guillotine scissors

The installation accuracy of the guillotine will directly affect the service performance of the machine, so it must be installed by professionals (or personnel sent by the manufacturer).

The machine must be installed on a stable and hard foundation, and the ground in the working area must be covered with a thick layer of concrete, as shown in the foundation drawing, and level (maximum flatness 2mm/m).

Fifteen days before installation, the user can dig the foundation, pour the machine base, reserve four anchor bolt installation holes, and pay attention to placing the four sizing blocks in the specified position.

After the foundation has been set, install the anchor bolts and then perform secondary grouting.

After the cement solidifies, adjust the level of the machine through the support screws and support plates, and then adjust the level of the work table.

To adjust the level of the work table, remove the plate with the steel ball in the middle of the work table, place the level horizontally on the two convex machining surfaces of the work table, and adjust the transverse level of the machine with the left and right screws on the front of the machine.

Then place the level vertically and adjust the longitudinal level of the machine with the left and right support screws on the back of the machine.

Horizontal and longitudinal levels should be controlled within 1000:0.2mm.

Attention:

  • The machine must be accessible from all sides, leaving enough space for various maintenance operations and adjustments.
  • When the machine is suspended and ready to be installed, insert the anchor bolt. The horizontal adjustment screw must be lubricated and screwed into the bottom for easy installation and only needs to be adjusted downwards.
  • Due to the different degrees of looseness of the foundation, the machine level should be checked again after 30-50 hours of use.
  • After horizontal adjustment of the machine, before using it, recalibrate the blade gap uniformity according to the described method.

Technical requirements:

  • Four pieces of steel sheets with dimensions of 100×60×δ20, supplied by the buyer, must be embedded in the foundation. The plane of the steel plate must be a little higher than the ground, as shown in the figure above.
  • Once the foundation is completely solidified, the machine can be installed and then anchor bolts can be installed for secondary grouting.
  • After the secondary grout has completely solidified, adjust the machine level and perform various commissioning.
