Enterprises should pay attention to small equipment such as imported machine tools

 

When the staff of Yantai Inspection and Quarantine Bureau inspected the new equipment imported by a certain enterprise in the jurisdiction, it found that there were many hidden dangers that were not conducive to the operator's personal safety, and proposed rectification opinions and required the enterprise to submit a technical treatment plan and rectify within a time limit. The batch of equipment is a special machine for the manufacture of 8 valves, with a value of 110,000 US dollars, all produced by a Taiwan company.



After on-site investigation, the inspectors of the bureau found that the four equipment safety did not meet the mandatory requirements of the national technical specifications:



1. The equipment is grounded or not grounded or grounded;



2, the electrical door of the equipment is not qualified for electric shock protection design;



3, is the device all emergency stop button can not be self-locking;



4. There is no safety warning mark for the electrical cabinet and dangerous parts of the equipment.



If you do not seriously correct the above problems, you may cause huge personal injury to the operator during use.



According to the inspection personnel, the imported enterprises only check the equipment according to the recommendation of Taiwan customers, and only consider the price advantage and do not know in detail before importing. The equipment manufacturer is a small-scale production enterprise in Taiwan. The above problem may be caused by the equipment manufacturer's lack of technical strength and the safety performance of the equipment is not considered. Another possibility is that the manufacturer has cut corners on the equipment exported to the mainland. Manufacturing according to technical specifications.



Here, the inspection and quarantine department should remind the relevant enterprises to pay attention to the following problems when importing small mechanical equipment:



First, pay attention to the assessment of manufacturers before importing equipment. The manufacturer's production qualifications and equipment quotations should be comprehensively measured, and manufacturers with technical strength should be selected as much as possible.



The third is to pay attention to the arrival of equipment inspection. Before the imported equipment is used, it must be checked by the professional for safety items. After confirming that there are no safety hazards, the installation and commissioning will be carried out to ensure the personal safety of the operator.



Second, the import of small equipment should also pay attention to pre-import inspection. Due to the small number of imported equipment and the low value of the goods, there is a cost infeasibility in the pre-shipment inspection. At this time, it is recommended that the manufacturer require the manufacturer to provide the digital appearance of the equipment, the control panel and the internal electrical system to the equipment. A preliminary understanding of safety performance.
