About the horizontal correction of the fuselage
If you want to correct the horizontal position of the press brake, you need to use a spirit level or a spirit level. The specific calibration process is as follows:
- Use a level ruler and place it in the middle and both sides of the press brakeworkbench in turn for horizontal correction;
- The level ruler is placed in the middle of the workbench of the press brake and placed horizontally to correct the horizontal position of the left and right sides of the press brake;
- The level ruler is placed longitudinally at both ends of the press brake workbench, and is used to correct the horizontal position of the front and rear sides of the press brake.
The level ruler is placed in the left, middle and right positions of the press brake workbench
By adjusting the screws, the machine body can be leveled.
*Please note that this is just a basic procedural guide, and the specific installation process may vary depending on the model of the press brake. To ensure proper installation and operation, always refer to the installation guide and user manual of the equipment, and consult technical service personnel if needed.
Adding Hydraulic Oil
Adding hydraulic oil to a hydraulic press brake is an important step to ensure its normal operation and use. Here are simple steps on how to properly add hydraulic oil to a hydraulic press brake:
Prepare the required materials
Before adding hydraulic oil, make sure you have the following materials ready:
- Hydraulic oil suitable for your hydraulic press brake (refer to the equipment manual or consult the service personnel for recommendations)
- Hydraulic oil filter (if applicable)
- Funnel or hand pump (for adding hydraulic oil)
Find the hydraulic oil filling port
Locate the hydraulic oil filling port on the hydraulic press brake. Typically, the filling port is located above the hydraulic oil tank of the equipment. Refer to the press brake user manual or the service personnel's guidance to ensure that the correct filling port is found.
Clean the work area
Before you start adding hydraulic oil, you must clean the area around the hydraulic oil filling port. Use a clean cloth or paper towel to wipe the filling port to prevent any impurities or dust from entering the hydraulic system.
Install the hydraulic oil filter (if applicable)
If the hydraulic press brake is equipped with a hydraulic oil filter, install it correctly on the filling port. The hydraulic oil filter helps remove impurities and contaminants from the oil, keeping the hydraulic system clean and operating properly.
Add hydraulic fluid
Use a funnel or hand pump to slowly pour hydraulic fluid into the fill port to avoid spills. Determine the required hydraulic fluid volume based on the equipment user manual or manufacturer's recommendations. Add hydraulic fluid gradually and monitor the level using the equipment's hydraulic system.
Monitor fluid level and pressure
Always monitor the hydraulic fluid level and pressure during the fluid addition process. Make sure the hydraulic fluid is within the proper range and close the fill port when finished.
