In the grain processing and storage industry, cylindrical initial cleaning screens are key devices. Mastering the correct usage precautions ensures their efficient and stable operation.
When installing cylindrical initial cleaning screens, choose a solid, level surface to ensure stability during operation. This prevents increased vibration due to uneven ground, which can affect screening results and potentially damage the equipment.
Before first use, conduct a comprehensive commissioning. Run the equipment without load to check if all components operate normally, listening for any unusual noises or vibrations. Confirm the correct rotation direction of the cylinder and the tightness of the screen mesh.
During operation, ensure grain is fed uniformly into the equipment. Avoid grain accumulation or interruption to maintain continuous screening and stable results. Adjust the feed device's flow control valve based on the equipment's capacity and grain characteristics to achieve uniform feeding.
Closely monitor the equipment's operating parameters, such as motor current, voltage, and cylinder speed. Subtle changes in these parameters can reflect the equipment's condition.
After each use, thoroughly clean the cylindrical initial cleaning screen. Remove residual grain and impurities from the screen mesh, wipe down the equipment surface, and clear any spilled grain around the device. Keeping the equipment dry after cleaning reduces wear on components and extends its lifespan.
Regularly inspect the equipment's components, such as screen mesh wear, bearing lubrication, and drive belt tension. Replace severely worn parts promptly to ensure the equipment remains in good working order. Check the belt tension; too loose can cause slipping and reduce efficiency, while too tight can accelerate belt wear.
