To further strengthen fire safety education targeting production equipment and enhance the emergency response capabilities of staff operating or working around the sand making machine, Ninon organized all employees—especially those responsible for the daily operation, maintenance, and nearby material management—to conduct the 2020 routine fire emergency drill on May 9. The drill was held in the workshop where the sand making machine is located, as this area faces unique fire risks: the sand making machine’s high-speed rotating parts may overheat if not maintained properly, and accumulated sand dust or residual lubricating oil around the machine could easily ignite, making targeted fire safety training critical.
The fire drill followed the scientific mode of "first training, then demonstration, and finally practical operation". During the training session, the company’s safety officer did not just cover general fire knowledge—they focused heavily on scenarios related to the sand making machine. They explained how to integrate the sand making machine’s shutdown procedures into the fire emergency plan (e.g., cutting off power to the sand making plant first in case of a fire to prevent equipment damage from spreading), shared basic fire-fighting knowledge tailored to the sand making machine’s environment (such as how to distinguish and handle fires caused by the machine’s bearing overheating versus dust combustion), and demonstrated key skills like putting out initial fires near the sand making plant (avoiding direct water spray on the machine’s electrical components) and correctly using fire extinguishers and fire hydrants installed within 5 meters of the sand making plant.

Subsequently, the safety officer moved the practical drill to the area right next to the equipment (with the machine in a powered-off, safe state). They set up a simulated fire scenario—using a small pile of sand mixed with oil to mimic a fire triggered by oil leakage from the sand making machine—and explained in detail the applicable scope of portable dry powder fire extinguishers for sand making machine-related fires (ideal for extinguishing flammable liquid and electrical fires, which are common near the machine). The officer demonstrated step-by-step: pulling the pin, holding the nozzle towards the fire source, and pressing the handle—all while reminding employees to keep a safe distance from the machinery to avoid tripping over its auxiliary components. Every participant, including sand making machine operators and workshop attendants, took turns practicing, with the safety officer correcting improper operations on the spot.

The alarm for safe production around the sand making machine rings long, and safety awareness must remain firmly in mind. Ninon Technology conducts annual fire drills and safe production training that prioritize sand making machine-related risks, as this equipment is a core part of the production line. These activities help all staff "prevent accidents before they occur": sand making machine operators learn to spot early fire hazards (like abnormal heat from the machine’s motor), and other employees master how to assist in emergency responses without disrupting the sand making machine’s safety. Ultimately, this not only effectively enhances employees’ fire prevention awareness and practical handling skills but also lays a solid foundation for efficient, orderly emergency work in the workshop—safeguarding both the sand making machine’s normal operation and every employee’s life safety.
