Preventive Maintenance Of Plaster Molds


Once you invest in a layer of mold to improve the performance of the tool and a preventive maintenance program is always a good idea for you to get maximum benefit. No coating lasts forever, and do not want to waste time and money by producing lower quality parts of a mold with a layer to use. The key is to educate your staff on how to control the mold during production. Learn to say when the coating shows deterioration, particularly in the area of ​​objects such as doors and corridors.

One of the most important aspects of a prevention program is taking to keep the mold before the coating wears away. Missing signs of significant wear will result in more costly repairs and the cost of additional polishing. A coating of hard chrome, for example, is about 20 points RC harder than steel base, steel exposed to wear much faster than the coated surfaces around them, causing deeper holes that require more in-depth repairs.

Thickness gauge is the best way to tell if the cover is wearing through. When the mold reaches the first time in our own factory, it takes time to measure the thickness of the surface, especially in high-wear areas, this special tool. When you run a production mold, sometimes it breaks again to measure these areas. Once you have decided that the finish is wearing a critical level, remove the mold and send it for maintenance.

Establish a part of counting is another effective way to determine maintenance needs with projects such as high-volume molding. From the first time you run the mold to maintain an exact number of pieces until you are ready for maintenance work first. Using what counts as an indicator that the maintenance is next.
