S
For example, Fig. 13-16, right and middle images, shows plating that has been worn down on the outer
edges of the auger, but recoating is still possible because the plating on the face side is still retained up
to 20%, meaning that the actual auger blade has not yet been damaged. Excluding the plating, the au-
ger blades have a thickness in this area of 10 mm, meaning that the remaining plating can be deter-
mined very precisely with a depth caliper.
The left image in Fig. 13-16 shows a auger on which the axial plating has been worn down completely
on the outer edges of the auger blade. In addition, the auger blade thickness itself has been reduced
almost to half. A cost-effective recoating is not possible in this case since the base stiffness of the auger
blade would no longer suffice for sufficient bonding of the plating. A new auger is therefore required.
13.6 SUMMARY OF MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION INTERVALS
Check the operational safety of the machine before every start !
Daily:
Visual inspection of the solid cake and the effluent
Visual inspection of the machine and gearbox seals (see section
13.1.1 Fig. 13-3 flange inflow housing inspection opening)
Every 125 operating hours (or weekly):
Supply with sealing medium (see section 13.1.1)
Every 1-3 months
Inspection and cleaning of the housing, screen, guide rails,
plastic profile rails, auger, housing protection ring (see section
13.2 - 13.5)
Readjust scraping bolts (see section 13.4 Fig. 13-14)
Every 6 months:
Check gearbox oil level
After 10.000 operating hours (no later than every 2 years)
Geared motor oil change (see the gearbox and motor docu-
mentation for oil quantity and type)
Inspect the bearing (see the gearbox and motor documenta-
tion for details)
