When using the laser cutting machine, many small details and some precautions are very necessary to pay attention to. Mastering the use skills of the laser cutting machine can make the equipment more efficient and worry free.
In order to achieve better efficiency and cutting quality when cutting with laser cutting machine, the following skills of laser cutting machine are very worth learning:
1、 Corner melting; When cutting corners of thin steel plates at a reduced speed, the laser will melt the corners due to overheating. Generate a small radius at the corner to maintain the high-speed laser cutting and avoid overheating and melting of steel plates when cutting corners, so as to achieve good cutting quality, reduce cutting time and improve manufacturing power.
2、 Part spacing; Usually, when cutting thick plates and hot plates, the spacing between parts should be large. Because the heat of thick plates and hot plates has a great influence, it is easy to burn edges when cutting corners, sharp corners and small graphics, which affects the cutting quality.
3、 Lead setting; In the process of cutting thick plates, in order to make the cutting seam connect well and prevent the beginning and end burns, a transition line is often introduced at the beginning and end of the cutting, which are called lead line and tail line respectively The lead wire and tail wire are useless to the workpiece itself, so they should be placed outside the scope of the workpiece. At the same time, pay attention not to set the lead wire at sharp corners and other places that are not easy to dissipate heat. The connection between the lead and the slit shall adopt arc transition as far as possible to make the mechanical movement stable and avoid burns caused by corner pause.
4、 Common edge cutting; Two or more kinds of parts are combined into a combination, and a large number of regular graphics should share the same edge as much as possible. Common edge cutting can greatly shorten the cutting time and save raw materials.
5、 Parts collision; In order to improve the manufacturing efficiency, many laser cutting machines operate continuously for 24 hours, and the automatic loading / unloading device operated by no one is used, which collides with the overturned parts after cutting, causing damage to the cutting head and manufacturing interruption, resulting in great losses. When sorting, pay attention to:
A. Select the appropriate cutting path, bypass the cut parts, and reduce the collision.
B. Choose a good cutting route to reduce cutting time.
C. Automatically or manually combine several small parts with micro connections. After cutting, the removed parts can easily disconnect the micro connections.
In order to achieve a better operation state of the laser cutting machine, routine maintenance is also essential. The maintenance of the laser cutting machine should pay attention to the following points:
1) Check the straightness of the track and the verticality of the machine every six months, and timely maintain and debug if abnormal. Otherwise, the cutting effect may be affected, the error will increase, and the cutting quality will decrease.
2) Always check the steel belt and make sure it is tight. Otherwise, if something goes wrong during operation, people may be injured. The steel belt seems inconspicuous, but if something goes wrong, it should not be underestimated.
3) Once a week, use a vacuum cleaner to absorb the dust and dirt in the machine, and all electrical cabinets should be closed to prevent dust.
4) All guide rails should be cleaned frequently to remove dust and other debris to ensure the normal operation of the equipment. The rack should be wiped frequently and lubricated to ensure lubrication without sundries. The guide rail and motor should be cleaned and lubricated frequently, so that the machine can move better and cut more accurately, and the quality of the cut products will be improved.
5) The double focal length laser cutting head is a vulnerable item on the laser cutting machine, and it is easy to damage the laser cutting head after long-term use.
