Control and maintenance of laser cutting machine

All laser cutting processes have their inherent advantages and disadvantages, but the advantages of fiber laser cutting machine seem to be far more than any other process. This is one of the latest forms of laser cutting, because it has only received attention in the past few decades or so. In addition, the development of optical fiber technology has brought a number of technological advances, the most striking of which is the ability to transmit information faster and more rapidly than before. Optical fiber technology allows users to use light beams to send data through diodes instead of relying on telephone or copper wires.

What is a laser cutting machine?

Laser cutting machine is a prototype and manufacturing tool, mainly used by engineers, designers and artists to cut and etch plane materials. The laser cutting machine uses a fine focused laser beam to penetrate the cutting material and cut out the patterns and geometric shapes specified by the designer.

Wonderful software-controlled laser cutting machine

Laser cutting is a tough job. Although it sounds simple to use a concentrated beam to cut materials, guiding the laser in a controlled way requires strict software guidance. The correct laser cutting software has a huge difference between getting ideas from the machine and using it to create harmonious things.

First: DraftSight
DraftSight is a CAD software that is best at helping you improve the image to be uploaded to the laser cutting machine. An outstanding feature is the image tracking function, which converts JPEG, BMP or PNG images into vector lines, curves and angles, making it easier for you to cut existing patterns without returning to the drawing board.

Number of trailers: TurboCAD
TurboCAD’s Overkill tool eliminates overlapping arcs and lines in the design, thus cleaning up the vector graphics of laser cutting. It also eliminates redundancy and tracks changes in its Event Viewer. You can also use TurboCAD’s PDF underlay tool. If you have a design you want to copy, save it as a vector PDF file and track it in a new TurboCAD project.

Maintenance of laser cutting machine in cold environment

With the arrival of winter, the working environment of laser cutting machine becomes very bad. Once improperly used, it will slightly affect the normal operation of the equipment, and then affect the customer’s production progress. In serious cases, it will cause serious damage to the relevant core components of the laser cutting machine (such as water cooler and laser). Therefore, we need to pay attention to the following methods in daily use.

Method 1
Ensure that the indoor temperature is above 0 ℃ and improve the workshop heating equipment. Because the working temperature of the laser can only be started at about 17 ℃.
Method 2
In a slightly cold environment, do not turn off the cooler to keep the refrigerant circulation after the laser cutting machine or laser engraving cutting machine does not work. You can adjust the normal temperature to about 10 degrees.
Method 3
Under the condition of ensuring indoor constant temperature, it is necessary to keep the water cooler of the laser cutting machine normally open, and adjust the water temperature to about 5~10 ℃. This can not only ensure cooling water circulation but also save electricity.
