A: After receiving the mold:
1. Check the mold's appearance for damage during transportation.
2. Unpack the mold, lubricate the mold's internal cavity and pressure plate, and then move the mold to a dry, flat area away from direct sunlight.
What maintenance is required for molds used for the first time:
a) For molds with pins, apply lubricating oil.
b) For molds with cylinders, perform a few pre-operations.
c) For side-opening molds, lubricate the side sliding plates first, then connect the oil pipe and run the machine idle for 40-50 times to purge air from the oil lines.
d) After the mold is installed, close it idle several times to check if the installation clearance is appropriate. If there is any jamming, adjust the fit and re-secure it.
