What are the daily maintenance of laser cutting machines?

As a high-precision processing equipment, laser cutting machines require meticulous maintenance and care in daily use to ensure their long-term stable operation. The following are some key points for daily maintenance of laser cutting machines:

1. Cleaning and dust removal:

Regularly clean the dust and dirt on the cutting head, lens and guide rails to prevent wear of mechanical parts and reduced transmittance of optical components.

Use special cleaning tools and cleaning fluids to gently clean optical components to avoid scratching or damaging the surface.

2. Lubrication and maintenance:

Regularly lubricate mechanical parts (such as guide rails, lead screws, bearings, etc.) according to the manufacturer's recommendations to reduce wear and improve precision.

Ensure that the air pump, valves and motion system are working properly, and replace or replenish lubricants regularly.

3. Inspection and maintenance:

Regularly check the stability of the power supply voltage, the efficiency of the cooling system, and whether all electrical connections are firm.

For any abnormal sound, temperature change or performance degradation, timely inspection and necessary repairs should be carried out.

4. Replace consumables:

Replace the laser, optical elements, cutting nozzle and other consumable parts in time to maintain the best cutting effect.

Replace the water and filter of the cooling system regularly according to the frequency of use and the manufacturer's recommendation.

5. Software and control system:

Update the software and firmware regularly to obtain the latest functions and performance optimization.

Check the security of the control system to ensure that all operating instructions and safety protocols are executed correctly.

6. Training and records:

Properly train operators to enable them to identify potential problems and take correct maintenance measures.

Keep detailed maintenance records, including information such as the time of each maintenance, the tasks performed and the parts replaced.

7. Environmental requirements:

Keep the working environment clean and dry to avoid dust, vibration and excessive temperature affecting the performance of the laser cutting machine.

Ensure that there is enough space around the machine for operation and maintenance.

8. Safety measures:

Comply with all relevant safety regulations, especially be extra careful when operating high voltage electricity and laser systems.

Before performing any maintenance work, be sure to cut off the power supply and wait for the laser system to cool down completely.

By following the above daily maintenance points, you can maximize the service life of the laser cutting machine, reduce the failure rate, and maintain its efficient cutting performance.
