About the episode

Maintenance / Machine / Mold

Hey everyone, good afternoon, good evening, good morning to those who will watch later. We're here for another episode of RotaCast, episode nine. Yes, good afternoon to all, welcome everyone.

Maintenance / Chain / Mechanic

When is it time for you to intervene on the machine, you know? Because sometimes you have a scheduled stop during a Sunday, for example, ah, let's take Sunday off to do maintenance.

Grease / Burner / Know

So, um, the chain is something you always have to keep an eye on, because it snaps right when it's inside the oven. That's where it happens most—the most critical part, right?

Maintenance / Start / Rotor

This also, yeah, falls into the maintenance part, because there's a damper, there's dirt that accumulates, because it has to pull in air to burn. So this is important, having a partner—I don't mean within the company, because it's hard to find someone who really has knowledge about, about burners, right, very specific.

Mold / People / Vent

The crew usually doesn't do this cleaning, right? Um, yeah.

Release Agent / Start / Care

So there's usually a spare for each mold or for each, for each half-measure of, of pipe diameter there. For example, he removes a part, he grabs that thing there, sometimes it starts clogging up a lot, so it becomes hard for him to remove, because sometimes the vent is too big.

Mold / Aluminum / Polishing

It's precisely because both the release agent and the anti-release agent are solvent-based, some are solvent-based. You have to be careful.

Do / Mold / Who

So having all the material there, it will be at the company, he manufactures molds, so he'll give up a space, all the tooling, and he'll be there teaching the techniques. It's a totally hands-on training, right?

Bearing / Do / Time

Only this has no basis for you to build that history. So you have to track the period, at least six months.

Belt / Bearing / Mechanic

Let's, just to wrap up this, this conversation, what would be the step-by-step to start getting our maintenance in order? Well, the first thing is to have a person with at least some knowledge, as I already said, which is fundamental, no point— So hire a mechanic, at least, right?

Grease / That / People

Yeah, so there are precautions you have to take. Yeah, I work with, there's a partner crew of ours that supplies grease, which goes up to six hundred degrees without a dropping point.

When / Problem / Equipment

My boss used to say: "go to that sector there." Who was the best person to talk to?

They / Company / Important

When I went there to work, the first thing I saw, I said: "Wow, look how dangerous that is. Oh, but no, do it." He said: this here is hopeless." And since I worked as a general helper, cleaning, I had to clean the, the section twice a day to remove excess oil, precisely to, to check this.

People / Week / All

Next week we're preparing another topic. Yeah, we're going to repeat, uh, some people who were here with us doing a Rotocast, because it's also a very controversial subject.
