During the operation of the Waffle Maker, due to the input of energy, wear, vibration and fatigue occur, causing the physical components in relative motion to be severely worn. This kind of tangible wear is called operational wear. Wear during use is usually manifested as: changes in the size and geometric shape of equipment parts, changes in the tolerance fit characteristics between equipment parts, leading to a decline in working accuracy and performance, and even damage to parts, causing damage to other related parts and resulting in accidents.

The main factors influencing the development degree of wear and tear during use include equipment quality, load level, technical proficiency of operators, working environment, maintenance quality and cycle, etc. This kind of wear and tear occurs when mechanical equipment is in use or not. When equipment is idle, it is prone to being neglected and maintained. Therefore, the natural wear and tear caused by idle equipment is more obvious and easier to be overlooked than when it is in use.

Follow the editor of Saimai to learn about the three wear stages of baking equipment

The first stage is the initial wear stage (also known as the running-in wear stage), which is the wear state of new mechanical equipment or mechanical equipment after major overhauls during the early failure period. The wear rate is very fast. The main reasons are the rapid wear of the rough machined surfaces of the parts during the load operation, the rapid failure of low-reliability parts under the load, poor installation and the unfamiliarity of the operators with the newly used equipment. As the rough surface was ground smooth, the faulty parts were replaced, and the installation was adjusted through running-in, the operator gradually became familiar with the equipment, and the wear rate of the equipment gradually decreased.

The second stage is the normal wear stage, during which the wear rate is slow and the mechanical equipment is in the best technical condition. Attention should be paid to maintenance, the correct operation techniques and usage rules should be applied, on-site inspections should be strengthened to prevent the deterioration of accidents and extend the current service life.

The third stage is the severe wear stage. When the wear degree of the main parts reaches the normal service limit and they continue to be used, the wear rises sharply. The precision, technical performance and production efficiency of the mechanical equipment decline significantly, and the failure rate rises sharply. During the operation of mechanical equipment, the normal service limit should be detected in a timely manner, and preventive maintenance should be carried out promptly to replace worn parts and prevent malfunctions.

Baking food production enterprises should pay attention to the maintenance and upkeep of Waffle makers, extend the service life of food machinery and equipment, ensure the normal operation of food production, achieve safe production, and enable enterprises to obtain profits.
