For users who have purchased laser cutting machines, the maintenance of laser cutting machines is a matter of concern. Since the price of a laser cutting machine ranges from hundreds of thousands to millions, it is really expensive, so using a good laser cutting machine can get twice the result with half the effort, and maintaining a laser cutting machine can be more effective. Save the user's cost of use. When using a metal laser cutting machine for processing, in order to achieve the ideal cutting speed and cutting effect, we need to learn the use and maintenance skills of the metal laser cutting machine equipment, so as to better exert the effect of the equipment and improve the working efficiency of the equipment. So how to maintain the laser cutting machine cover?

1.Be sure to check the optical path before work to see if it is normal
It is recommended that the user must check whether the optical path is normal before each work. Check the X-axis guide and lead screw, Y-axis guide and lead screw, Z-axis guide and lead screw lubricating oil every other week, keep all moving parts lubricated, and extend the X, Y, Z-axis guide and lead screw. service life.
    
2.Regularly clean all components
The metal laser cutting machine often generates a lot of dust inside and outside during cutting. In order to ensure that the laser is always in normal working condition, after two weeks of continuous operation or when it is stopped for a period of time, the components in the optical path such as the laser lens should be checked before starting the machine. , Make sure that the optical components are free from dust pollution, mildew and other abnormal phenomena. If there are any of the above abnormal phenomena, they should be cleaned and cleaned in time to ensure that the optical components will not be damaged under strong laser irradiation.
    
3.Heat protection and heat removal
The increase in temperature will cause the insulation performance of the equipment to decrease and the component parameters to deteriorate. Usually, it is stipulated that the working environment of the cutting machine does not exceed 40 °C, and 20~25 °C is suitable.

4.Precautions during daily maintenance
  • The laser tube installation fulcrum of the laser cutting machine should be reasonable
  • The suction device should be checked and cleaned regularly
  • The power of the power grid should match the equipment itself;
  • The working current of the laser tube should be reasonable, and it should not work at full power for a long time.
  • The dirt and dust on the machine body, cutting head, sensor and other components should be removed in time to keep the appearance of the machine tool clean;
  • The flammable substances (such as glove rags, etc.) in the machine tool should be cleaned up in time to prevent fires during cutting;
  • The iron slag on the hopper waste car should be cleaned up in time to ensure that the cutting waste can fall down smoothly;
  • Before starting the machine every day, carefully check whether the pressure of the working gas and the reducing valve work normally, so as to avoid insufficient air pressure, which will affect the quality of the cutting section;
  • Before use, check the connection of each gas pipe of the cutting head, and judge whether there is leakage of cooling water, so as to ensure the normal supply of gas and cooling water;
 
Only by correctly mastering these skills in maintaining the laser cutting machine can the life of the laser cutting machine be longer, so as to achieve real cost savings.
