What are the preparations for using a hydraulic cylinder machine before operation?

1. Inspection

Sealing test: Check whether there is any oil leakage at the piston rod of the cylinder, the oil pipe joints, and the connection points of the valve group. The sealing performance can be verified through pressure testing.

Component integrity: Confirm that the cylinder body has no cracks or deformations, and the bolts are firmly fixed; the power devices such as the hydraulic pump and motor are operating normally.

Lubrication maintenance: Add lubricating oil to the mechanical friction parts such as the guide rails and pin shafts to reduce wear during operation.

2. Safety Measures

Environmental cleaning: Remove debris around the equipment to ensure sufficient operation space and a dry and slip-resistant floor.

Protective equipment: Wear anti-shock shoes and gloves. Long hair should be tied up to avoid being caught in moving parts.

Emergency preparedness: Be familiar with the location of the emergency stop button and regularly practice the depressurization operation procedure.

3. Parameter Calibration

Pressure setting: Adjust the system working pressure according to process requirements, and control it within the rated value through the relief valve.

Stroke adjustment: Set the stroke limit of the cylinder to prevent mechanical damage caused by overstroke.

After completing the above preparations, it is recommended to conduct a no-load test run to verify the state of the hydraulic cylinder and provide a dual guarantee for the official operation.
