What to do if the Hyd-Mech Cutter blade path fault?
If you are experiencing a blade path fault with your Hyd-Mech Cutter, check the following: ensure the front flywheel position is correct by adjusting the flywheel's shaft. If the flywheels are worn, replace them. Clean any swarf from inside the machine using blown air. Finally, check and adjust the blade guide head alignment.
What to do if blade scored or scratched in Hyd-Mech S20DSP?
If the blade of your Hyd-Mech Cutter is scored or scratched, it could be due to several reasons: the Widia inserts might be chipped or worn (replace them), loose or tight (adjust them), or dirty (clean and re-adjust them correctly).
What to do if cutting surfaces scored on Hyd-Mech S20DSP?
If the cutting surfaces of your Hyd-Mech Cutter are scored, consider these potential causes: the blade teeth may be worn (replace the blade), the head downstroke speed could be too fast (reduce it), or the cutting speed might be too slow (increase it). Also, the blade teeth might be too wide (change for wider teeth). Ensure the free blade guide head is close enough, leaving only the necessary part of the blade free for the cut. Check the blade tension and reset it to the rated tension if it's low. Finally, inspect the blade for broken teeth and replace the blade if needed.
What to do if emergency blade guard open on Hyd-Mech S20DSP Cutter?
To address an open emergency blade guard on your Hyd-Mech Cutter: ensure the blade guard is closed, check the safety limit switch, and verify the connections.
What to do if emergency inverter failure on Hyd-Mech S20DSP Cutter?
To troubleshoot an emergency inverter failure on your Hyd-Mech Cutter: press RESET to test the manual commands, check the inverter contactor, check the power supply voltage, check the power phases and supply voltage of the blade motor, and check the connections.
Why is my Hyd-Mech Cutter experiencing rapid tooth wear?
Rapid tooth wear in your Hyd-Mech Cutter can occur for several reasons. The teeth may be pointing in the wrong direction, so ensure they are set correctly. A new blade might not have been properly worn in; new blades should be used at half-speed for the cutting and downstroke, and after about 300 cm2 of work for hard materials or 1000 cm2 for soft materials, speeds can be increased. The material may be too hard, requiring adjustments to cutting speed, downstroke speed, blade pressure, and the type of band saw used. Defective material with oxides, sand, surface hardening, or hardened inclusions can also cause this; reduce speeds or clean the surface. Other causes include cutting speed being too high (reduce it), downstroke speed too slow (increase it), insufficient coolant (check level, cle...
What to do if my Hyd-Mech S20DSP has broken teeth?
If your Hyd-Mech Cutter's blade teeth are breaking, several factors could be responsible. Reduce the cutting speed and downstroke speed if they are too high. Ensure the cutting pressure is correct. If the tooth pitch is unsuitable (teeth too close together), switch to a blade with a coarser pitch. Check the blade-cleaning coolant jets and brush, as swarf welded to the teeth can cause breakage; ensure swarf is removed. Material defects like oxides or hardened inclusions can also break teeth, so scrap or clean the materials. Ensure the workpiece is clamped to prevent movement during cutting. If the blade stops mid-cut, check and restore rated pressure, reduce downstroke speed, or increase cutting speed. Also, ensure the blade isn't slipping on the flywheels due to wear or incorrect tension; ...
Why are the cuts from my Hyd-Mech S20DSP Cutter not orthogonal or inclined?
If the cuts from your Hyd-Mech Cutter are not orthogonal or are inclined, it could be due to several reasons. The head downstroke speed might be too fast, so try reducing it. Worn or loose Widia inserts can also cause this issue; replace or adjust them as needed. Ensure the blade guide head is correctly positioned and that the blade is orthogonal to the workpiece rest shoulder and perpendicular to the work surface; realign and adjust as necessary. Incorrect blade tension can also lead to this problem; bring the pressure up to 60 Bar. Other potential causes include a worn blade (replace it), an unsuitable tooth pitch (change to a coarser blade), cutting speed being too slow (increase it), or the wrong coolant being used (check the emulsion, clear any blockages, and direct the jets correctly...
