In daily work and production, failure of an air compressor is a trouble, how can we avoid it?
In fact, if the air compressor is well maintained, it will not malfunction. We must reflect on the cause of the failure and take measures to prevent it. In the process of using the air compressor, achieving zero failure of the air compressor is the goal pursued by maintenance technicians.
The maintenance of air compressors is the same as treating diseases and saving people. It is necessary to focus on prevention and be good at curing "preventing diseases". The maintenance of air compressors should be done to avoid failures and achieve zero failures of air compressors. Zero failures are the pursuit of maintenance practitioners. The highest state.
The zero failure of the air compressor does not mean that the equipment does not fail, it means that the equipment does not fail during the production time, and the maintenance technicians use technical means to eliminate the air compressor faults during non-production hours to make the machine normal in production Operation,
For example, an aircraft cannot fail during flight; another example is a key production line, which will stop production for a long time due to a failure, which will cause huge losses. Therefore, for this type of air compressor, it needs to be overhauled during non-production hours to eliminate hidden troubles and ensure zero failures.
How to achieve zero failure of air compressor
To achieve zero failure of the air compressor, efforts can be made from the following 5 aspects:
1. Find out potential faults and solve them
To find out the potential failures of the air compressor, it is necessary to have technicians who are proficient in air compressors, and know when and where the air compressor will have problems. If there are 20 sets of air compressors in a factory, all have reached 10 years of service life, and the bearings of 3 sets of air compressors are damaged, then it can be judged that the bearings of the other 17 sets of air compressors have reached the service life. The number of years must be replaced in advance to eliminate the potential fault.
2. Correct use
Through training, improve the quality of operators and maintenance personnel, improve the reliability of personnel, and reduce failures caused by personnel operating errors.
3. Improve the design and control the occurrence of faults from the source
Some faults can be eradicated by improving the design, analyze and summarize such faults, propose solutions, take reasonable measures, and control from the source to achieve maintenance-free effects.
4. Strengthen preventive and predictive maintenance
Strengthen the spot inspection of the air compressor, and discover the potential failure of the air compressor in advance through the spot inspection. For example, the transmission system of the air compressor box is regularly inspected. When the screws and nuts are found to be loose, measures can be taken in advance. Eliminate hidden equipment hazards in the bud. Our goal is not to replace a component prematurely-while it is still in good condition, but to repair it when it is really needed.
5. Improve the maintenance level of air compressors by improving management
The core of air compressor management is to achieve the goal of production and operation, improve the overall efficiency of the air compressor, and pursue life cycle cost economy. According to the characteristics of the company's air compressors, formulate an air compressor management system that meets the actual situation of the company to improve the company's air compressor maintenance level. For example, for different air compressors, whether to adopt the post-maintenance mode or the preventive maintenance mode, or to formulate a spot inspection mode that meets the actual situation of the company.
6. Regularly maintain and care for the air compressor
Air compressors are roughly divided into two types: piston air compressors or screw air compressors. Most of the mechanical equipment relies on electric motors as power to drive the equipment to continuously operate. The same is true for air compressors, which require a large amount of air to be sucked in. , The high-pressure air is input into the air storage cylinder through the reciprocating movement of the piston or the high-speed rotary extrusion of the screw. During the continuous process of work, the air compressor must inhale a large amount of air, so the fine dust in the air will continue to accumulate and must be discharged regularly Dust on the air filter or replace the air filter; the air compressor must keep the moving parts lubricated for continuous operation, and the oil must be replaced regularly; the air compressor cylinder will cause water to accumulate due to entering a large amount of air condensed water molecules Therefore, it is necessary to regularly discharge the water in the air storage cylinder. The screw air compressor uses oil circulation to dissipate heat. The radiator must remove dust every day to improve the efficiency of the radiator, and also regularly replace the special oil for the air compressor.
