What is daily maintenance method for metal laser engraving machine?

As a mechanical device, laser engraving machines are life-like, and there are problems of aging and exhaustion. For users, how to carry out daily maintenance of laser engraving machines to extend the life of which is an important thing. Different seasons have different points of attention for laser engraving machines maintenance. Let's take a closer look.

What are maintenance methods for laser engraving machines in summer?

Recently, the degrees have gradually increased, and the hot summer is approaching. The maintenance of our laser etching machines should also keep up. In order to prevent the laser from appearing in high degrees environment, high degrees alarm, light cut, missed hit, weak light, as long-term high-degrees work will shorten the internal pump source life, to avoid the laser power of small laser cutting machines depreciation in advance, to ensure that the laser can work normally, customers should carefully do the following ventilation and cooling measures in advance.

1.        When you are adjusting the laser of laser engraving machines, do not adjust its inlet and outlet to the position close to the casing. In order to make the air circulation smoother, you should reserve some space.

2.        A cooling fan should be installed inside the chassis to make the laser etching machines internal air of the chassis exchange. If the indoor ambient degrees exceed 30 °C, it is recommended to install an air conditioner to avoid the laser working at high degrees.

3.        In addition to daily maintenance of the laser etching machines, you should spend some time each month using the air gun to clear the air outlet. In addition, it is necessary to clean the blast orifice on the cabinet regularly, in order to prevent the laser engraving machines blast orifice from being blocked by dust and affecting heat dissipation.

What are maintenance methods for laser engraving machines in winter?

In cold weather conditions, antifreeze measures are required during the use of machine like the co2 laser cutting machine, when the use environment is often blacked out and there is no daily cooling liquid venting condition. The base liquid of antifreeze for laser engraving device is generally composed of alcohol and water. It requires high boiling point and flash point, large specific heat and conductivity, low viscosity at low degrees, not easy to foam, and does not corrode metal parts and rubber hoses.

When selecting or blending antifreeze for laser engraving machines, the freezing point should be 5 °C lower than the low degrees of the environment. In addition, you should use a special brand of special antifreeze.

What are maintenance methods for laser engraving machines in daily life?

1.        Before the laser engraving machine is working, the equipment must be brimmed with liquid for circulation. The water quality and water degrees of the liquid directly affect the service life of the laser engraving device. Therefore, it is necessary to periodically replace the circulating water and clean the water tank, preferably once a week.

2.         If your laser metal engraving device has been purchased and used for quite some time, no matter what material your metal is, you will have a lot of dust accumulating inside the fan, which is one of the reasons for the discordant noise. This condition does not help with venting and deodorization. When the suction of the fan is insufficient and the smoke is not smooth, the fan must undergo a thoroughly washing.

3.        There are some focusing mirrors on the machine. The laser is mirrored by these lenses, focused from the laser engraving device head. Lenses are easily stained with dust or other contaminants, contributing to laser loss or lens problem. So, you are ought to clean the lens every day.

4.         The guide rail and linear shaft are one of the center ones of the laser metal engraving device, and its role is to provide the necessary guidance and assistance. In order to make certain that the device has nice machining ability, your instruction should have requirements for nice guiding efficiency and good motion stability of the guide rail and the straight line.

5.        Once your laser metal engraving machine is put into progress, due to the quantities of dust and ash collected passively during working, it will deposit on the surface of the guide rail and the linear axis for periods, which has a great influence on the precision of the working device and is on the surface of the linear axis of the guide rail. Corrosion points of laser engraving device has been formed, thus shortening the life of the device. Therefore, you need to clean the machine every half month and shut down the machine before cleaning.
   After working the machine for a period of time, the screw coupling at the laser engraving machine joint may become loose, affecting the smoothness of the mechanical movement. Therefore, observe the transmission components during the operation of the machine, pay attention to the presence or absence of abnormal noise, and strengthen and maintain it in time if an abnormality occurs. At the same time, use the tool to tighten the screws one by one for the loose parts. When the metal laser engraving machine is used for the first time, it should be used after the device is used for one month.

6.         The oriental path system of the wood laser engraving machines is completed by focusing and reflecting together. In the optical path, there is no deviation problem of the focusing mirror, but the three mirrors are fixed by mechanical parts, and the phenomenon of laser engraving device deviation may occur after a long time. Although there is usually no offset, it is recommended that the user check to see if there is light before each work path is normal.

Even if it is excellent, such as the laser engraving machines produced by EKS Laser, the maintenance work is very meaningful. Just like a person who has the best skin needs maintenance, only after doing daily care and maintenance can delay aging for a period of work, the power drop of laser etching machines is inevitable, however, the usual maintenance of laser engraving devices can delay its aging time, achieve its maximum value for you.
