The focusing lens is made of ZnSe (zinc arsenide), which is brittle and is afraid of falling; Attention shall be paid during disassembly: do not use too much force or collide with hard objects. There is an antireflection film on the surface, which is afraid of pollution, moisture, oil and scratch; Therefore, it is required to provide dry and degreased air during work. Never handle the lens of the laser cutting machine focusing lens directly by hand, because skin grease will cause lasting damage to the lens surface. On the contrary, you can wear gloves and special sets for operation. For smaller lenses, it will be more convenient to use optical tweezers or vacuum tweezers. No matter what method is used to clamp the focusing mirror of the laser cutting machine, it can only be clamped along the non optical surface, such as the frosted edge of the mirror plaque.

In general, the focusing lens of the laser cutting machine needs to be checked before use and before and after cleaning. Because the size of most contaminants and surface defects is relatively small, we often need to use magnification equipment when checking lenses. In addition to amplification equipment, sometimes we also need to use a relatively bright light to illuminate the optical surface to enhance the specular reflection intensity of surface contaminants and defects, so that pollutants and defects can be found more easily.

When cleaning the focusing lens of a laser cutting machine, always use clean wiping paper and optical grade solvent to prevent damage by other pollutants. Wiping paper must be moistened with appropriate solvent, and must not be used dry. In consideration of softness, the available wiping paper is pure cotton Webril wiping paper or cotton ball, lens paper, cotton swab and other applicators.

Although it is troublesome to clean and maintain the focusing lens of the laser cutting machine, good cleaning and maintenance operations can extend the service life of the lens, improve the efficiency and save costs for enterprises, which can be said to be twice the result with half the effort. When the high cleanliness is still not reached after cleaning for many times, it needs to be replaced to ensure the processing efficiency of the laser cutting machine, so as not to delay production.
