You must not know the laser equipment maintenance tips in winter

11, 2018

Winter is coming, and the temperature is plummeting. In order to better extend the service life of the laser equipment, we must remind the new and old customers of doing the antifreeze measures for the equipment in winter. Because the price of laser equipment is expensive, as many as hundreds of thousands of millions. Therefore, we should extend the life of the laser equipment to better save production costs and win greater benefits as long as possible.


This shows that the daily maintenance of the laser cutting machine is very important. Below, Oreelaser will simply summarize some of the considerations:


1 Water replacement and water tank cleaning


It is recommended to clean the water tank once a week and replace the circulating water once. Especially the laser tube must be filled with circulating water before working.

The water quality and temperature of the circulating water directly affect the service life of the laser tube. It is recommended to use pure water and control the water temperature below 35 °C. If it exceeds 35 °C, it is necessary to replace the circulating water, or add ice cubes to the water to lower the water temperature. (It is recommended that the user choose a cooling machine or use two water tanks).


Another thing is cleaning tank. Firstly turn off the power, unplug the water inlet pipe, and let the water in the laser tube automatically flow into the water tank, open the water tank, take out the water pump, and remove the dirt on the water pump. Then clean the water tank, replace the circulating water, return the water pump to the water tank, insert the water pipe connected to the water pump into the water inlet, and arrange the joints. Power on the pump separately and run for 2-3 minutes (fill the laser tube with circulating water).


2 Fan cleaning

The long-term use of the fan will cause a lot of solid dust to accumulate inside the fan, which will cause a lot of noise and is not conducive to exhaust and deodorization. When there is insufficient suction of the fan, turn off the power supply firstly, and remove the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe on the fan and the dust inside, then invert the fan and pull up the fan blades until it is clean. Finally install the fan.


3 lens cleaning

It is recommended to clean before work every day, the equipment must be turned off.

There are some mirrors and focusing mirrors on the laser machine. The laser is reflected by these lenses, focused and emitted from the laser head. Lenses are easily stained with dust or other contaminants, causing laser loss or lens damage. So clean the lens every day. Pay attention when cleaning:

  • The lens should be wiped gently, and the surface coating should not be damaged;

  • the wiping process should be handled gently to prevent falling;

  • Be sure to keep the concave surface facing down when installing the focusing mirror.


4 Rail cleaning

It is recommended to clean the rail once every half month, and which must be in the shutdown state for this operation. As we all know that the guide rail and linear shaft are one of the core components of the equipment, and its function is to guide and support. In order to ensure the machine with a high machining accuracy, the guide rail and the straight line are required to have high guiding precision and good motion stability. During the operation of the laser equipment, a large amount of corrosive dust and smoke will be generated during the processing of the workpiece. Based on the long-term deposition of the smoke and dust on the surface of the guide rail and the linear shaft, the machining accuracy of the equipment will be greatly affected. And the etch point is formed on the surface of the linear axis of the guide rail to shorten the service life of the laser device. In order to make the machine work stably and ensure the quality of the products, it is necessary to carefully carry out the daily maintenance of the guide rails and linear axes.

Note: Please prepare the cleaning rails - dry cotton cloth, lubricating oil.


5 Screws, coupling fastening

After the motion system is working for a period of time, the screws and couplings at the joint of the movement will be loose, which will affect the smoothness of the mechanical movement. Therefore, it is necessary to observe whether the transmission parts have abnormal noise or abnormality during the operation of the machine. Once found, such problems must be sturdy and maintained in a timely manner. At the same time, the machine should use a tool to tighten the screws one by one. What needs to be emphasized is that the first time it should be sturdy after the device is used about a month.


6 Light path inspection

The optical path system of the laser engraving machine is completed by the reflection of the mirror and the focusing of the focusing mirror. In the optical path, there is no offset problem in the focusing mirror. But the three mirrors are fixed by the mechanical part, and the possibility of offset is higher Large. Although the offset does not normally occur, it is recommended that the user check that the light path is normal before each work.


In addition, there are other things we should do. For example, clean the debris at the exhaust port regularly to ensure the effect of the exhaust; check the filter in the gas path regularly, and remove the water and debris in the filter in time; regularly check if the travel switch bracket and the bumper bracket screw are loose; clean the dust on the filter screen of the electric control cabinet ventilation fan in time to ensure good ventilation to facilitate internal heat dissipation of electrical components. That is to say that as long as we pay attention to the maintenance of the machine, we can better extend the life of the machine.
