1. Conduct a safety check before use

One is to check the circuit to prevent electric shock. Metallographic cutting machines are usually equipped with 380V industrial voltage and 16A large sockets, ensuring that the circuit is normal, the wires are not exposed, and the importance of casing grounding is self-evident.

The second is to inspect the appearance. If there is a significant change in the shape of the cutting machine, do not continue to use it. Because the cutting machine is designed with many protective devices, once the appearance changes, the user may not receive corresponding protection, the equipment may not function properly, and there may be a risk of electric shock.

2. Close the protective cover properly

The protective cover not only prevents splashing (debris, cooling water), but also prevents cutting pieces from flying out and injuring people, preventing accidental contact by personnel.

Sometimes there may be situations where the sample size is too large and the protective cover cannot be closed. Although the cutting motor cannot be started unless the protective cover is closed, the user must be aware of the solution. Give up cutting yourself and send samples for external production. Don't be afraid of trouble, don't act recklessly, and avoid risks.

3. The cutting blade can only be operated after stopping rotation

Many metallographic cutting machines still rotate at high speeds after cutting. Although some cutting machines are equipped with brake devices, they still need to wait for the cutting blades to stop before operating.

4. Check the protective cover

Firstly, check if the protective cover is damaged.

The second is to confirm that the protective cover is not closed and the cutting motor cannot be started.

5. Check the emergency stop button

Check if the emergency stop button can cut off the power supply and brake in a timely manner.

6. Do not touch the equipment with wet hands

This article may have elasticity, but the focus is on understanding and establishing safety awareness.

7. If you have any questions, you can refer to the user manual or consult the metallographic cutting machine manufacturer

Of course, you can also learn from trained professional technical personnel.
