Water trough machine

Water Trough Machine


The water trough machine is a machine for pressing the water trough used in color steel structure. Here is a detailed introduction to it:

 

  1. Working Principle
    • Forming Principle: Through a series of molds and mechanical devices, the color steel plate is gradually bent, pressed and formed to turn it into a specific shape and size of water trough. For example, first place the color steel plate at the feeding position, then transport it to the first mold through the conveying device for initial bending, and then go through subsequent molds for further forming, finally forming the shape of the water trough.
    • Power System: Usually powered by a motor. The motor drives a reducer, and the reducer then transmits power to various transmission components such as transmission shafts and gears. These transmission components drive the movement of the mold to realize the processing of the color steel plate.
  2. Structural Composition
    • Frame: It is the basic structure of the water trough machine and plays the role of supporting and fixing other components. The frame needs to have sufficient strength and stability to ensure that there is no shaking or deformation during the operation of the machine. Generally, it is welded with high-quality steel and undergoes strict processing and heat treatment processes to improve its strength and durability.
    • Mold System: This is the core component of the water trough machine, consisting of multiple molds of different shapes and sizes. The quality and precision of the mold directly affect the forming quality and dimensional accuracy of the water trough. The mold is usually made of high-strength alloy steel material and undergoes precision processing and heat treatment processes to ensure its hardness, wear resistance and dimensional accuracy.
    • Transmission System: Responsible for transmitting the power of the motor to the mold system so that the mold can move according to a predetermined program. The transmission system includes transmission shafts, couplings, gears, chains and other components. These components need to have good transmission efficiency and precision to ensure the accurate movement of the mold.
    • Control System: Used to control the operation process of the water trough machine, including operations such as starting, stopping, speed regulation and mold adjustment. The control system can use a PLC (programmable logic controller) or other automation control equipment to achieve precise control of the machine through programming. Operators can operate and monitor the machine through the control panel or touch screen, which is convenient and quick to adjust the operating parameters of the machine.
  3. Performance Characteristics
    • High Degree of Automation: It can realize automated production, greatly improving production efficiency and product quality. Operators only need to place the color steel plate at the feeding position, and the machine can automatically complete the subsequent forming and processing processes, reducing the error and labor intensity of manual operation.
    • High Production Efficiency: Multiple water troughs can be produced per minute, greatly shortening the production cycle. Compared with traditional manual production or semi-automated production methods, the production efficiency of the water trough machine can be increased several times or even dozens of times.
    • Good Product Quality: Due to the use of high-precision molds and advanced forming processes, the produced water troughs have high dimensional accuracy, regular shape and smooth surface, and the quality is stable and reliable. At the same time, the machine can monitor and adjust the production process in real time, find and solve problems in time to ensure product quality.
    • Strong Adaptability: It can produce water troughs of various shapes, sizes and specifications according to different customer needs and design requirements. Only by replacing the corresponding molds and adjusting the operating parameters of the machine can different products be produced, with strong adaptability and flexibility.
  4. Maintenance
    • Daily Maintenance: Clean the machine regularly to remove dust, oil stains and debris on the surface and keep the machine clean and tidy. Check whether the connections of various components are loose. If so, tighten them in time. Check the lubrication condition of the transmission components and add lubricating oil in time to ensure the normal operation of the transmission components.
    • Regular Maintenance: Conduct a comprehensive inspection and maintenance of the machine at regular intervals. Check the wear condition of the mold. If there is wear, replace or repair it in time. Check the working condition of the electrical system. If there is a fault, eliminate it in time. Upgrade and maintain the control system of the machine to ensure the stability of its performance and functions.
    • Troubleshooting: When the machine malfunctions, stop it in time for inspection, find out the cause of the failure and eliminate it. Common faults include mechanical faults, electrical faults, control system faults, etc. For some simple faults, operators can troubleshoot by themselves; for some complex faults, professional technicians are needed for maintenance.
