How to maintain the laser cutting machine?

The main components of laser cutting machine are the circuit system, transmission system, cooling system, light source system, dust removal system. Daylong focus on the need to maintain the part of the cooling system (to ensure constant temperature effect), dust removal system (to ensure the dust removal effect), the light system (to ensure the quality of the beam), the transmission system (focus on the need to ensure normal operation). Laser cutting machine maintenance is mainly to maintain the above systems. Next is the introduction of maintenance methods.

Cooling system maintenance

The water inside the water cooler needs to be replaced regularly, the general replacement frequency is one month. Water cooler as circulating water is responsible for cooling the laser and other parts of the equipment, long time use of water quality is prone to the formation of scale, thus blocking the water circuit caused by the decline in water flow, reducing the cooling effect, so regular replacement of water as the primary issue to be treated. Water tries to choose distilled water, if there is no condition can choose deionized water. Each manufacturer has the requirements of water quality, remember to meet the requirements, otherwise, the long use of substandard water quality will cause fiber laser cutting machine internal scale accumulation.

Dust removal system maintenance

Long-term use of the fan will make the fan inside the accumulation of a lot of solid dust, so that the fan produces a lot of noise, but also not conducive to exhaust and deodorization. When the fan suction power is not enough to exhaust smoke, first turn off the power, the fan on the inlet pipe and outlet pipe removed to remove the dust inside, then the fan upside down, and pull the air leaves inside until clean, and then the fan installed.

Optical path system maintenance

The only purpose of cleaning the lens is to remove the contaminants from the lens and not to cause further contamination and damage to the CNC laser cutting machine.  To achieve this, one should often use relatively low-risk methods. The first step is necessary to apply an airball to blow off the floating matter from the surface of the element, especially for lenses with tiny particles and flocculation on the surface. However, one should never use compressed air from the production line, because this air can contain oil and water droplets, both of which can deepen the contamination of the lenses. The second step is the light cleaning of the lenses with acetone. This level of acetone is almost waterless, which reduces the possibility of contamination of the lenses. A cotton ball dipped in acetone must clean the lenses under light and make circular movements. Once the swab is dirty, it must be replaced. The cleaning should be done in one pass to avoid the creation of ribs. (If the lens has two coated surfaces, such as a lens, each side needs to be cleaned in this way. (The first side needs to be placed on a layer of clean lens paper for protection.

Transmission system maintenance

In the co2 laser cutting machine, the transmission system is equivalent to the human hands and feet. Transmission system directly affects the normal operation of the equipment and service life, co2 laser cutting machine long-term cutting process will generate soot, fine soot will enter the equipment through the dust cover, thus adhering to the guide rack above, long-term accumulation will increase the wear and tear of the guide rack, rack guide is originally a more precise accessory, over time will also cause slider and gear damage.  Therefore, the rack and pinion rail to do regular dust cleaning, clean up the dust attached to the rack and pinion rail after the top of the rack and pinion will be greased, the top of the guide with lubricant lubrication.

When it comes to laser cutting machine manufacturers it is important to mention Liaochoeng Ray Fine Technology Co. Our company recommends that you properly maintain the laser cutting machine, which can extend the life of the product.
