In the packaging industry, servo piston filling machines are favored for their high precision and efficiency. CX PACKING MACHINE's servo piston filling machines are designed specifically for liquid products, including cream, lotion, and oil. These machines are driven by servo motors to operate the piston cylinder, coordinating with the valve opening/closing and filling nozzles, all controlled by a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) system to ensure precise and stable operation. Regular maintenance and care are crucial to ensure long-term stable operation and extended lifespan of the equipment. Today, we will provide a detailed maintenance and care guide for servo piston filling machines to help you better use and manage your equipment.

Daily Maintenance

1. Clean the Equipment:

   • After each use, clean the equipment promptly, especially the parts that come into contact with liquids. Prevent residues from drying and affecting the next use. This is particularly important for high-viscosity products like creams and lotions.
   • Regularly check and clean the piston and cylinder to ensure no residue buildup, preventing product contamination and cross-contamination.

2. Check Lubrication:

   • Regularly check the lubrication system to ensure all moving parts are adequately lubricated. Insufficient lubrication can lead to increased wear, affecting precision and lifespan.
   • Use appropriate lubricating oil and avoid using inferior products to ensure effective lubrication and long-term stability of the equipment.

3. Check Seals:

   • Regularly inspect the seals for wear and replace any aged or worn seals in time. The quality of the seals directly affects the accuracy and leakage prevention of the filling process.
   • Ensure the seals are clean and intact to prevent liquid leakage. Pay special attention to the material and oil resistance of the seals for oil-based products.

Periodic Maintenance

1. Electrical System Check:

   • Regularly check the electrical control system, including the servo motor, sensors, and cable connections. Ensure all electrical components are securely connected and signal transmission is accurate.
   • Ensure the electrical system is working correctly to avoid downtime due to electrical failures. Regularly clean the electrical control cabinet to prevent dust accumulation affecting electrical performance.

2. Mechanical Components Check:

   • Check all fasteners for looseness and tighten them in time. Loose fasteners can lead to increased equipment vibration, affecting filling precision.
   • Regularly inspect the wear condition of all moving parts and replace severely worn parts promptly. Pay particular attention to key components like the filling nozzles and pistons to maintain their optimal working condition.

3. Control System Check:

   • Regularly check the PLC control system to ensure the program is running correctly. The PLC control system is the core of the entire filling process, and ensuring its stability is crucial.
   • Ensure sensors and other control components are fault-free and data transmission is accurate. Regularly calibrate the sensors to ensure their detection accuracy.

Seasonal Maintenance

1. Comprehensive Equipment Check:

   • Conduct a comprehensive check of the equipment quarterly, including all aspects of the mechanical and electrical systems. Based on the inspection results, develop a detailed maintenance and care plan.
   • Adjust the maintenance plan according to seasonal changes affecting the equipment, such as temperature and humidity changes, to ensure stable operation in different environments.

2. Software Updates:

   • Regularly check the software version of the PLC control system to ensure the use of the latest version. Software updates can optimize equipment performance and add new functions.
   • Perform software upgrades according to manufacturer recommendations for better performance and functionality. Backup the existing program before upgrading to prevent data loss.

Maintenance Records

1. Establish Maintenance Records:

   • Record maintenance contents, time, and responsible personnel after each maintenance and care session. Detailed maintenance records help trace issues and optimize maintenance plans.
   • Maintenance records should include the equipment's operating status, discovered issues, and solutions. Regularly summarize and analyze maintenance records to identify patterns and issues in equipment operation.

2. Regularly Review Maintenance Records:

   • Regularly review maintenance records to analyze the equipment's operating conditions. Through data analysis, identify potential issues and take preventive measures in advance.
   • Adjust the maintenance plan based on the records to prevent potential problems. Continuously optimize the maintenance plan to improve equipment reliability and production efficiency.

Advantages of Servo Piston Filling Machines

1. High Precision:

   • The servo motor drive system precisely controls the piston's movement, achieving high precision in filling volume control and ensuring consistency in each filling. High-precision filling is particularly important for high-value liquid products like creams and lotions.

2. High Efficiency:

   • The servo motor's quick response capability significantly increases the filling speed, meeting the demands of large-scale production. An efficient filling process reduces production cycles and increases production efficiency.

3. Programmable Control:

   • The equipped PLC control system allows programmable settings based on different filling requirements, flexibly adjusting filling parameters to enhance production flexibility. Different liquid products have different filling requirements, and the PLC control system can easily handle them.

4. Easy Operation:

   • User-friendly interface and simple maintenance steps make equipment operation and maintenance more convenient, reducing operator training time and maintenance costs. Through the human-machine interface, operators can easily set and adjust filling parameters, improving production management efficiency.
