Like other mining equipment, wire saw machines are safe to use as long as the operating equipment is used in accordance with equipment operating procedures and safety procedures. The following summarizes the safety precautions during the use of wire saw machine:
1. Safe area for wire saw machine sawing work. Because the wire saw machine uses a flexible wire rope as a sawing tool, in order to prevent the wire rope from breaking and flying out due to unexpected reasons, the safety area of the wire saw machine is stipulated in the front, back, left and right when it is used. If it is necessary for the work when personnel must enter or cross the dangerous area, the operator must stop the operation of the wire saw machine and wire rope, and then start the saw machine after the problem is solved or the personnel pass.
2. Placement of safety guards. When the wire saw machine is horizontally cut, the operator should place a special safety baffle on the outside of the exposed wire rope. In the event of a short rope, it can prevent the flying wire rope from producing horizontal slamming and causing injury to personnel. The height of the safety baffle should exceed the movement height of the wire rope by 0.5m.
3. Personnel cannot approach wire ropes in motion. When the wire saw machine is cutting vertically, it is forbidden for the operator or others to stand and watch in the same direction as the wire rope cutting line, and cannot look down on the wire rope in work.
4. Frequently check the integrity of the wire rope crimping tool. The wire rope joint must be connected reliably. It is not allowed to connect the wire rope joint when the manual hydraulic clamp is insufficient in oil, the die is seriously deformed or there are other faults.
5. Check the wire rope connection frequently. Develop the habit of checking the connection quality of the wire rope joints every time the machine is shut down, find out the hidden dangers of reducing the cross-section or endangering the connection strength in time, and replace them in time.
6. Power lines and control lines should be erected off the ground. Connect the power line and control cable of the wire saw machine, it is best to place it on a special bracket, so that it is always in a position away from the ground, and the sharp gravel on the ground will cut and damage these wires, causing leakage or control failure. Accidents and failures.
7. Grounding Requirements for wire saw machine. Regardless of whether the stone mining site is muddy or dry, the wire saw machine must be grounded reliably in accordance with the requirements of electrical equipment usage specifications to prevent accidents caused by electrical leakage in the electrical system.
8. Safe Operating Locations for Wire Saw Machine Control Boxes. The control box of the wire saw machine should be placed perpendicular to the direction of movement of the wire saw machine, at least 13m away from the wire saw machine. For safety reasons, a safety baffle with a height of 1m and a width of 1.5m can be placed in front of the control box without affecting the operator's observation of the working state of the wire saw machine. The operator can stand behind the safety baffle to operate the wire saw machine.
