How can laser engraving machine work efficiently?
If you want the laser engraving machine to work efficiently, then you have to do the following 8 points:
1) The cooling water should be unblocked. Whether it is tap water or circulating water pump, the water flow must be kept clear. Cooling water is the heat generated by the laser tube. The higher the water temperature, the lower the light output power (15-20 °C water temperature is better). When the water is broken, the tube end will burst due to heat accumulated in the laser cavity, and even the laser will be damaged. power supply. Therefore, it is necessary to check whether the cooling water is unblocked at any time. When the water pipe has a hard fold (dead bend) or fall off, and the pump fails, it must be repaired in time to avoid power loss or even equipment damage.
2) Clean and maintain, good exhaust, clean the laser engraving machine at any time, is a necessary condition for the normal operation of the machine. The machine tool guide rail is a high-precision core component. After each work is completed, it must be wiped clean, keep it smooth and lubricated, and each bearing should be oiled regularly, so that the drive can be flexible, the machining is accurate, and the service life of the machine tool is prolonged.
3) Maintenance of the fan: After the fan is working for a period of time, a large amount of dust will accumulate in the fan and the exhaust pipe, and the dust will affect the exhaust efficiency of the fan, causing a large amount of smoke to be discharged. Maintenance method: Loosen the connection hose of the exhaust pipe and the fan, remove the exhaust pipe, and clean the dust from the exhaust pipe and the fan. Cycle: around January.
4) Maintenance controls the stability of the PC. The control PC is mainly used for the control of the engraving device. In addition to the necessary graphic design software, please use the special machine. Because the computer is equipped with a network card and an anti-virus firewall, it will seriously affect the speed of the controller. Please do not install an anti-virus firewall on the control machine. If you need a network card for data communication, please disable the network card before starting the laser engraving machine.
5) The ambient temperature should be in the range of 5-35 °C. Special attention is: if it is used in the environment below freezing point, it must be done: (1) to prevent the circulating water in the laser tube from freezing, the water must be completely discharged after the shutdown (2) The laser current must be preheated for more than 5 minutes to start working. In the rainy days and humid environments, the laser power supply needs to be warmed up for a longer period of time. It is necessary to add high voltage after the moisture is drained to prevent breakdown of the high voltage circuit.
6) Maintenance of the guide rail: During the movement of the guide rail, a large amount of dust is generated due to the material to be processed. Maintenance method: First wipe the original lubricating oil and dust on the guide rail with cotton cloth, wipe it clean, and then apply a layer of lubricating oil on the surface and side of the guide rail. Cycle: A week or so.
7) Laser lens maintenance: After the machine is working for a period of time, the lens will stick a layer of ash on the surface due to the working environment, which will reduce the reflectivity of the reflective lens and the transmittance of the lens, and ultimately affect the working power of the laser. Maintenance method: Gently wipe the lens surface in a clockwise direction with absorbent cotton and ethanol to remove dust.
8) Tightening of the screw: After the movement system is working for a certain period of time, the screw at the joint of the movement will be loose. When the screw is loose, it will affect the smoothness of the mechanical movement. Maintenance method: Use the supplied tool to tighten the screws one by one. Maintenance period: about one month.
