Tasks of Safety Technology Work for Precision Punch Manufacturers

1. The fundamental measure to ensure the safety of the punching machine is to change the operation mode of hand entering the mold and achieve out of mold operations.

Enterprises can adopt various measures such as automatic lines, multi-station punches, multi-station molds, mechanized feeding, and merging processes (continuous molds, composite molds) according to different production types to ensure the safety of stamping operations and improve quality and efficiency. This is the direction of stamping technology development and an important part of enterprise technological transformation.

However, the above measures are only applicable to the type of large-scale flow production. The transformation requires a long time, a large investment, and high technical requirements, making it difficult to implement.

Currently, the stamping production of small and medium-sized enterprises should start from reality and add simple feeding mechanisms to the existing molds to achieve out of mold operations. We will also improve the existing mechanisms for mold material allocation, production, and waste removal, shorten the working time inside the mold, reduce the scope of the mold closure area, and achieve the goal of easy operation and ensuring safety.

2. Transform stamping equipment to ensure machine tool safety.

There are mostly some problems in the existing clutch, brake, control system, electrical control system, and other aspects of the punch press, which are prone to motion loss (such as coupling or sliding block falling). In order to prevent this situation from occurring, it is recommended to analyze common accidents and take measures. It is recommended that the equipment manufacturing department improve the product structure and carry out safety technology transformation on the punching machine of this enterprise.

3. Provide personal safety protection devices for operators to prevent injury accidents caused by misoperation.

There are many types of safety devices for punching machines, which can be classified into two categories: isolation protection (such as two hand start switches, fence type, baffle type, pull type, and pull type safety devices) and braking protection (such as photoelectric, inductive, and contact type safety devices).

The main function of these protective devices is to ensure the safety of the feeding operation, and to equip other auxiliary facilities during the discharge and waste cleaning operations to ensure the comprehensive safety of the punching machine operation.
