How to deal with abnormal noise in pillow packaging machine?

HOME > News
Abnormal noise during the operation of pillow packaging machines is often a signal of equipment problems. If not dealt with in a timely manner, it may lead to larger malfunctions or even safety accidents. The following are the general steps for handling abnormal noise from pillow packaging machines:
 
1. Stop the machine immediately
First, for safety reasons, the machine should be turned off immediately and the power should be cut off to ensure that no one is in danger.
 
2. Locate noise sources
Try to locate the exact location of the noise. Abnormal noises can come from multiple places, such as motors, transmissions, bearings, chains, or conveyor belts. Listen and observe carefully to narrow down the source of the problem.
 
3. Conduct preliminary inspection
  • Motor/drive unit: Check whether the motor is overheated, whether there is vibration or unbalanced rotation.
  • Transmission mechanism: Check for obvious wear, looseness, or misalignment of chains, belts, or gears.
  • Bearing: Check whether the bearings of each rotating shaft are smooth, whether there is any jamming feeling, and whether lubricating oil needs to be added.
  • Fixed screws: Check whether all screws and bolts of the equipment are tightened, and sometimes loose connectors can also produce noise.
  • External object interference: Confirm whether there are any foreign objects involved or stuck inside the machine.
 
4. Cleaning and lubrication
For moving parts such as bearings, chains, gears, etc., cleaning up possible dust and dirt, adding lubricating oil or grease appropriately, sometimes simple cleaning and lubrication can solve the noise problem.
 
5. Replace damaged components
If a component is found to be significantly worn or damaged, it should be replaced immediately. Don't wait until it's completely irreparable to take action, as this can avoid chain reactions and reduce additional repair costs.
 
6. Professional inspection
For situations that are difficult to diagnose on their own, or when you suspect that the problem is complex, it is best to seek professional inspection and repair. Professional technicians have rich experience and tools, which can quickly and accurately identify the problem and provide appropriate solutions.
 
7. Record and analyze
Each malfunction and repair should be recorded in detail, including the symptoms of the malfunction, the handling process, and information on the replaced components. These records are very useful for future fault prediction and preventive maintenance.
 
8. Preventive maintenance
Based on previous fault experiences, developing a preventive maintenance plan and regularly performing cleaning, inspection, and lubrication tasks can help reduce potential similar problems in the future and extend machine lifespan.
 
During the process of handling abnormal noise, it is important to pay attention to safety regulations and ensure that operations are carried out under safe conditions to avoid personal injury. Meanwhile, continuous monitoring of equipment status and timely handling of minor issues can effectively prevent major failures and ensure smooth production.
