A cooling pad line earns money only when it is running. Most breakdowns come from skipped basic maintenance, not part failure. Use this checklist to keep uptime high.
Daily checks (5–10 minutes)
- Clean glue rollers and remove dried adhesive
- Check belt tension and alignment
- Confirm oven / heater temperature is holding setpoint
- Clear paper dust from cutting and corrugating areas
Weekly checks
- Lubricate chains, bearings and moving joints
- Inspect resin coating rollers for build-up
- Check electrical connections for heat or looseness
- Verify guards and emergency stops work
Monthly checks
- Calibrate temperature on the oven machine
- Tighten all fasteners and check for vibration
- Inspect tubular heaters for even heating
- Review glue consumption — a jump often signals roller wear
Yearly service
- Full electrical inspection of panel, contactors and wiring
- Replace worn bearings and rollers before they fail
- Deep-clean the full line
- Schedule it in your off-season so production is never interrupted
The simple rule
Spending ten minutes a day prevents the ten-day breakdown. Keep a logbook so any operator can follow the same routine. If you need spare rollers, heaters or a service visit, contact our support team.
