Maximize Your Plastic Extruder's Lifespan: Essential Maintenance Tips for Overseas Clients

.Cleanliness Check: Wipe down the machine’s exterior, especially the control panel and sensor interfaces, to prevent dust accumulation from interfering with electrical components. Clear any residual plastic pellets or debris around the feed hopper to avoid contamination.​

.Safety Component Verification: Test emergency stop buttons, safety doors, and pressure relief valves to ensure they function correctly—safety is non-negotiable in daily operations.

2. Regular Maintenance: Prevent Long-Term Wear (Monthly/Quarterly)

In addition to daily checks, scheduled deep maintenance is critical for addressing hidden issues. We recommend the following based on equipment usage (adjust frequency for high-load operations):

.Screw & Barrel Inspection: Every month, disassemble the screw and barrel to check for wear, corrosion, or plastic residue buildup. Use a non-abrasive brush and professional cleaning agents to remove stuck material—avoid sharp tools that could scratch the barrel’s inner wall. If wear exceeds 0.2mm, consider replacing the screw to maintain extrusion precision.​

.Sudden Shutdown: First, cut off the power and check for tripped circuit breakers or overloaded motors. If the motor emits a burning smell, do not restart—contact a professional technician immediately.​

.Uneven Extrusion: This may be caused by a worn screw, blocked die head, or unstable temperature. Stop production, inspect the screw and die head for blockages, and recalibrate the temperature control system.​

.Oil Leaks: Identify the leak source (e.g., gearbox seals, oil pipes) and shut down the machine to replace damaged parts. Have spare seals, gaskets, and lubricants in stock to reduce downtime.
