How to extend the life of the Laser cutting machine

How to extend the life of the laser cutting machine？

The main components of the laser cutting machine are circuit system, transmission system, cooling system, optical path system and dust removal system.

Genarally, the last three parts are what we need to maintain on  daily basis.

1. Cooling system.

The water inside the water cooler needs to replaced regularly. The water quality and water temperature affect the service life of the laser tube directly. We usually suggest use pure or distilled water and keeping the water temperature below 35 °C.

Besides,keep water flowing at any time. The cooling water is responsible for taking away the heat generated by the laser tube.

2. Dust removal system.

The fan is for a long time, and it will contaminate with a lot of dust. When finding that the suction of the fan is insufficient and the exhaust is not smooth, you need turn off the power and remove the air inlet and outlet pipes on the fan. Then removing the dust inside the fan.

3. Optical path system.

After the machine has been working for a while, the surface of the lens will be covered with dust. Under these circumstances, the reflectivity of the reflective lens and the transmittance of the lens will reduce.

The operator should use absorbent cotton to rub the ethanol and carefully wipe it along the center of the lens to the edge. The lens should be gently wiped during this process, in case the surface coating will be damaged.
