SAFETY CUTTING AND GRINDING Safety Safety during a grinding process is ensured by the machine manufacturer, the grinding wheel producer and the user. Grinding wheels are subject to a high load during the grinding process. This is why grinding machines, grinding bodies, handling and application must be optimally harmonised to ensure safe grinding. For the grinding machines, it is especially important to observe the machine conditions and the stipulation of the protection cover. Whereas manufacturers implement the safety measures in line with regulations during the production of the grinding machine and grinding wheels, the user is responsible for safety when grinding by using the grinding machine for the intended purpose, as well as by correct handling and application of the grinding wheels. The following must be considered: – Examine the grinding tools on delivery – Correct handling and storage of grinding tools – Labelling, matching with machine data – Examination of the grinding wheels prior to clamping – Choose correct methods for grinding wheels – Test run of grinding tools prior to start-up – Eye protection and protective clothing (see also FEPA safety code) 177 Storage of the grinding wheels Checking of grinding wheels on delivery Grinding wheels are to be stored in suitable racks or containers, to avoid damage and so that it is easily possible to remove wheels without disturbing the storage setup. Older stock should be used first. Check packaging on delivery. If damage is visible on the packaging, the grinding wheel should be checked particularly thoroughly for any possible transport damage. During storage, the following must be noted Identification of the grinding wheels Store the grinding wheels in a dry, and protected environment to avoid rusting and do not expose grinding wheels to large temperature fluctuations. The purpose of the identification is to give people, in particular those who carry out the clamping of the grinding wheels, information for safe use and proper application. Storage for different types of grind ing tools Grinding wheels may only be used if they are identified with the fol lowing minimum information – Store cut-off wheels on a level underlay without intermediate layers and weigh them down with a steel or cast iron plate – Store large straight grinding wheels in an upright position and make sure they cannot roll away – Stack cylinder wheels, cylindrical grinding discs and grinding plates by using soft intermediate layers – Stack cone-shaped grinding discs, shape 11, together by either their front or bottom side – Store small grinding wheels in suitable containers – Manufacturer – Dimensions of grinding wheel – Material (at least the type of bond) – Maximum permissible RPM of new grinding wheel and maximum operating speed in m / s The user is obliged to match the machine speed to the maximum permissible speed given in the identification.
