There are some common problems that can arise during the stainless steel strip cutting process, here are some of the possibilities:
Uneven cutting or burrs: When cutting stainless steel strips, if the tool is not sharp or the cutting speed is too fast, it may cause uneven cutting or burrs. This can be caused by tool wear, incorrect cutting parameters, or vibration during cutting.
Cutting overheating: Stainless steel strips have high hardness and thermal conductivity. If the cutting speed is too fast or there is a lack of cooling and lubrication during the cutting process, the tool and workpiece may overheat, and even cause damage or deformation of the tool.
Cutting deformation: During the cutting process, the stainless steel strip may be deformed due to excessive heat-affected zone or uneven cutting tension, resulting in inaccurate cutting size or bad shape.
Tool wear is too fast: The hardness of the stainless steel belt is relatively high, which easily causes rapid wear of the tool. If the tool is improperly selected or the cutting parameters are set incorrectly, the tool life may be greatly shortened and the production cost may be increased.
Poor surface quality: Surface scratches, oxidation or cracks may occur during the cutting process, affecting the surface quality and appearance of the stainless steel strip.
To address these problems, the following measures can be taken to improve and prevent them:
Ensure the sharpness and wear resistance of knives and replace severely worn knives regularly.
Control cutting speed and cutting pressure to avoid overheating and excessive cutting tension.
Use appropriate cooling lubricant to reduce cutting temperature and cutting friction.
Optimize cutting parameters to ensure stable and uniform cutting process.
Use high quality stainless steel straps to reduce surface defects and oxidation issues.
Perform regular maintenance and upkeep on cutting equipment to ensure stable operation of the equipment and good cutting quality.
