During the use of  metal stamping molds, natural wear of mold parts, unreasonable mold manufacturing processes, improper installation or use of molds on machine tools, and equipment failures can all cause the main components of the mold to lose their original performance and accuracy, leading to a deterioration of the mold's technical status and affecting the normal production and efficiency as well as the quality of the products. So it is necessary to do a good job of maintenance in order to make metal stamping molds work better and increase their service life. What daily maintenance do you usually need to pay attention to? There are three stages of daily maintenance that need attention.

1. Preparation work before using metal stamping molds

Before installing the mold, it is necessary to clean and maintain the surface of the mold so that the installation surface of the mold and the worktable of the press are not damaged by pressure. It is also necessary to check whether there are any abnormalities in the fastening parts.

2. Maintenance during the use of metal stamping molds

Regularly lubricate the sliding parts of the mold to prevent rough operation from causing wear on the surface of each sliding part. Pay attention to the operation status of the mold at all times and immediately stop the machine for maintenance if any abnormalities are found.

3. Dismantling of metal stamping molds after use

After using the mold, it should be removed from the press machine according to the correct operating procedures, and it must not be disassembled randomly. After disassembly, it needs to be wiped clean and coated with oil for rust prevention.
