How to maintain safety during the operation of a surface grinder

Nowadays, surface grinders are widely used, so many times when we operate surface grinders, due to the wide range of grinding techniques, correct operation of the surface grinder is the only prerequisite for ensuring the safety of the operator. When starting work, use manual adjustment to slow down the grinding wheel and bring it closer to the workpiece. The initial feed rate should be small, and excessive force should be avoided to prevent collision with the grinding wheel. When using a stopper to control the reciprocating motion of the worktable, it is necessary to accurately adjust it according to the grinding length of the workpiece and tighten the stopper firmly.

Therefore, the safety technology work of grinding processing is particularly important. Reliable safety protection devices must be adopted during processing, and the operation must be fully focused and concentrated to ensure that nothing goes wrong. At the same time, the fine sand and metal shavings splashed from the grinding wheel workpiece during grinding can harm the eyes of the operator. If the operator inhales a large amount of this dust, it will be harmful to their body, and appropriate protective measures should be taken. Pay attention to the following safety technical issues during grinding processing.

Grinding processing is one of the main methods for precision machining of machine parts. However, due to the extremely high rotational speed of the grinding wheel and its hardness, brittleness, and inability to withstand heavy impacts, if operated incorrectly, crushing the grinding wheel can lead to very serious consequences. Before starting up, a thorough inspection of the grinder should be carried out, including checking the control mechanism, electrical equipment, and magnetic suction cups and other fixtures. After inspection and lubrication, conduct a test run to confirm that everything is in good condition before use.
