Maintenance of sock machines is a key link to ensure their efficient operation and extend their service life, and daily cleaning, lubrication, and component inspection and replacement constitute the basic elements of maintenance. First of all, daily cleaning is the basis of sock machine maintenance. During the production process of sock machines, pollutants such as dust, fiber and oil stains will inevitably accumulate on the surface and inside of the machine. These pollutants will not only reduce the appearance of the machine, but also significantly affect its operating efficiency and may even cause equipment failure. Therefore, the operator should thoroughly clean the sock machine every day, using a clean rag or brush to remove dust and fiber on the surface of the machine, especially key parts such as the needle bed, needle bar and yarn feeder. At the same time, it is crucial to regularly clean the dust inside the machine to ensure that the internal environment is clean and dry. During the cleaning process, be sure to avoid using water or corrosive detergents to prevent damage to the precision parts of the machine.
Many parts of the sock machine will generate friction during operation. If they are not lubricated in time, the wear of the parts will increase, thereby reducing the overall life of the machine. Therefore, the operator needs to regularly refuel and lubricate the various lubrication parts of the sock machine. Before refueling, it is recommended to let the machine run for a while to discharge the dirt and old oil between the parts, and then apply new oil appropriately. The selection of lubricating oil should be based on the specific requirements of the machine and the working environment. Avoid using unsuitable lubricating oil to avoid damage to the equipment.
Many parts of the sock machine, such as needles, springs and transmission belts, will inevitably wear out gradually as the use time increases, which will directly affect the running accuracy and stability of the machine. Therefore, the operator needs to check the wear of these parts regularly. If the parts are found to be severely worn or malfunctioning, they should be replaced immediately. In addition, for wearing parts such as needles and bobbins, it is recommended to regularly reserve a certain number of spare parts so that they can be quickly replaced when needed to ensure the continuity and efficiency of production.
