Harsh working conditions are a significant environmental factor causing shutdowns of small floating fish feed extruders. Firstly, temperature is a major factor. The extruder should operate within a temperature range of 0-40℃. In summer, high temperatures (above 40℃) without cooling measures can lead to poor motor heat dissipation, degraded electrical component performance, and trigger overheat protection shutdowns. In winter, low temperatures (below 0℃) without preheating can increase the viscosity of the lubricating oil, increasing component resistance and potentially causing overload shutdowns. Secondly, humidity is a significant factor. A damp production site can cause electrical short circuits due to moisture, and accelerate corrosion of metal components such as screws and bearings. Severe corrosion can lead to component jamming and shutdowns. Furthermore, floating fish food extruders generate a small amount of dust during operation. Excessive dust accumulation on the motor, control cabinet, and vents can impair heat dissipation and electrical component contact, indirectly causing shutdowns.
Prolonged high-load operation leading to equipment fatigue is another important cause of small floating fish feed pellet machine shutdowns. The screw, bearings, belts, and other components of a small fish feed pellet extruder have a limited lifespan. Prolonged high-load operation accelerates wear and aging, accumulating potential malfunctions. For example, if a small mini extruder runs continuously for more than 8 hours a day, far exceeding its design load, the screw will wear faster, the bearing life will be shortened, and sudden shutdowns may occur. Similarly, long-term high-load operation of the drive belt will cause aging, cracking, and eventually breakage, leading to shutdowns. Furthermore, without regular comprehensive maintenance after long-term use, residual raw materials and oil will gradually accumulate inside the equipment, affecting component operation and increasing the probability of downtime.
To prevent downtime of the Small Home Use Dog Food Making Machine caused by environmental factors and equipment fatigue, the following preventative measures are recommended: Optimize the production environment; install cooling equipment (fans, air conditioners) during high summer temperatures and preheat and insulate the equipment during low winter temperatures; keep the production area dry and well-ventilated, and implement moisture-proof protection measures for the electrical system; regularly clean equipment and site dust, and install dust removal devices to reduce dust generation; rationally arrange production loads to avoid long-term continuous high-load operation of equipment; small equipment should not operate for more than 6 hours per day, and large equipment can adopt a shift system; establish a comprehensive equipment maintenance mechanism, performing routine maintenance (cleaning, lubrication, and tightening) monthly, and comprehensive maintenance every six months (checking the wear of core components and replacing aging parts) to fundamentally reduce fatigue failures.
