How To Extend The Life of Laser Cutting Machine

The main components of the laser cutting machine are circuit system, transmission system, cooling system, light source system and dust removal system. The main parts of the daily maintenance that need to be maintained are the cooling system, the dust removal system, the optical path system, and the transmission system. Next, XT Laser will take you to learn about how to extend the life of laser cutting machine .

There are some tips accordingly

1．Cooling system maintenance

The water inside the water cooler needs to be replaced regularly. And the frequency of replacement is usually one week. The water quality and water temperature of the circulating water directly affect the service life of the laser tube. We recommend to use pure water or distilled water and control the water temperature below 35 °C. It is easy to form scale without changing the water for a long time. Thus blocking the waterway, so be sure to change water regularly.

2．Dust removal system maintenance

After a long time of use, the fan will accumulate a lot of dust. It will affect the exhaust and deodorization effects. And will also generate noise. When the fan has insufficient suction and poor smoke exhaust, first turn off the power, remove the dust from the inlet and outlet air ducts on the fan, then turn the fan upside down, stir the blades inside until they are clean, and then install the fan. Fan maintenance cycle: about one month.

3．The optical system maintenance

After the machine works for a period of time, the surface of the lens will glue with a layer of ash due to the working environment,which will reduce the reflectivity of the reflecting lens and the transmittance of the lens, and ultimately affect the working power of the machine.At this time, use a cotton wool and ethanol to carefully wipe along the center of the lens to the edge. We should wipe the lens to prevent damage to the surface coating; the wiping process should be handled gently to prevent it from falling; be sure to keep the concave surface facing down when installing the focusing mirror.
