Laser cutting machines are a big deal in industrial laser manufacturing. Alongside their pivotal role, it's crucial to prioritize operational safety and machine maintenance. You need to choose the right materials, ensure adequate ventilation, clean and add lubricants regularly, maintain the laser chiller regularly, and prepare safety equipment before cutting.
Laser cutting machines are a big deal in industrial laser manufacturing. Alongside their pivotal role, it's crucial to prioritize operational safety and machine maintenance. And now, we delve into the finer details that demand attention when using laser cutters.
1.Material Selection: Make sure to choose the right materials for your laser cutting project. Different materials react differently to laser cutting, so using the wrong material can damage the laser machine or result in low-quality cuts. Adjusting the settings appropriately to avoid material or machine damage is also crucial. If you're unsure about a particular material, it's not recommended to use a laser cutter on it.
2.Ensure Adequate Ventilation: Laser cutting machines produce dust, smoke, and odors during operation, so it's essential to have proper ventilation to remove harmful gases from the work area, ensuring the safety of personnel. Maintaining good air quality in the operating environment also helps with the heat dissipation of the laser chiller, preventing overheating that could damage optical components.
3.Lubrication for Smooth Operation: Regularly clean and dust off all moving parts to keep the laser cutting equipment clean, allowing for smoother operation. Lubricate the guides and gears to improve the machine's precision and cut quality. The intervals for adding lubricant should be adjusted seasonally, with approximately half the duration in summer compared to spring and autumn, and regularly monitor the quality of the oil.
4.Regular Maintenance of the Laser Chiller: The configuration of the laser chiller is crucial for maintaining stable operating temperatures, laser output power, ensuring high-quality cutting results, and extending the laser cutting machine's lifespan. Dust removal, changing the laser chiller's circulating water, and cleaning any scale buildup in the laser and pipeline are necessary to prevent dust accumulation (affecting heat dissipation) and scale buildup (causing blockage), both of which can compromise the cooling effect.
5.Prepare Safety Equipment: When operating a laser cutting machine, always wear appropriate safety gear, including safety goggles, gloves, and protective clothing. These items effectively protect your eyes, skin, and hands from laser radiation and material splatter.
