Precautions for laser marking machine

Posted on by

First, two main precautions for optical fiber laser marking machine
Prevent fiber breakage
The laser head of the pump system and the laser system is connected by optical fiber.
Users shall ensure that the bending diameter of optical fiber is greater than 300mm during use or transportation.
Severe bending can lead to fiber breakage and laser system failure.
Prevent dust pollution
When the power supply and the optical fiber access port of the laser head are not connected to the optical fiber,
The protective cover provided with the system must be installed to prevent external dust from contaminating the internal optical components.
When the optical fiber cannot be connected to the power supply and laser head,
When the protective cover attached to the system must be installed, prevent the end face of the optical fiber from being polluted.
In serious cases, please use a dust-free paper dipped in alcohol and ether to wipe. Failure to install the protective cover will contaminate the internal optical components and optical fiber end faces,
This will cause the entire laser system to malfunction and void the warranty.
Precautions for laser marking machine?
secondly. About avoiding condensation
Prevent condensation on the surface of laser crystal and LD cavity
The laser system must not be operated in high humidity environments.
The customer shall ensure that the ambient humidity is less than 60%.
When the temperature difference between the laser crystal temperature and the ambient temperature is too large (greater than 10 degrees), condensation may occur on the laser crystal.
The power supply of the controller system is reduced or damaged.
Therefore, when the ambient temperature is much higher than the set temperature of the water tank (more than 10 ℃),
It is strictly forbidden to use the laser system when the water cooler is turned on and the laser head is not working.
Follow these steps to operate the marking machine:
When turning on the machine, first turn on the cooler, wait until the refrigerator temperature is lower than 30 ° C, start the power supply, and then slowly adjust the current to about 10A;
When the temperature of the refrigerator is displayed at the operating temperature (about 18 ° C), slowly turn the current

How to maintain the lens of optical fiber laser cutting machine?

Posted on by

As we all know, one of the most important components of fiber laser cutting machine is the laser cutting head with high precision and high price.
The life of the laser cutting head not only affects the working efficiency of the cutting machine, but also affects the production cost and the benefit of the factory.
In addition, the most common problem affecting the life of the cutting head is the pollution damage of the optical lens inside the structure.
Today, we will teach how to maintain the optical lens of the laser cutting head.
How to maintain the lens of optical fiber laser cutting machine?
Possible causes of lens contamination of laser cutting head
1. The optical fiber head in the cutting head is installed incorrectly.
Therefore, the main solution is to choose the correct installation method of optical fiber laser head.
Most installers tend to assemble the cutting head freely, so as to tilt the installation direction of the optical fiber head, resulting in careless installation.
We should try to install the fiber head horizontally inside the cutting head and lock it during installation.
In addition, we can try to operate in a clean environment to avoid raising dust during installation.
Or we can choose to operate in the morning to prevent dust from entering the cutting head.
2. Poor sealing effect of cutting head
Then, it is feasible to install a ventilation system to maintain the internal pressure of the cutting head.
3. Incorrect replacement of protective window box
Due to the large volume of the protective mirror box, particles will inevitably be mixed in the replacement process.
Therefore, the speed must be changed when replacing the protective mirror box. We should seal the windows with tape or other film.
4. Use of unreasonable cutting head consumables
Selecting qualified protective glasses and “O” type sealing rubber ring can ensure the sealing of cutting head and prevent dust from entering.
5. Improper operation of laser cutting machine
When operating the laser cutting machine, we must strictly follow the equipment instructions and requirements and operate correctly. Reduce the impact of incorrect handling on the cutting head.
6. Poor maintenance of cutting head
The cutting head shall be clean and dry as much as possible and cleaned regularly.

How to improve the cutting quality of fiber laser cutting machine?

Posted on by

As we all know, the biggest advantage of metal laser cutting machine is that it can greatly improve the cutting accuracy. However, many customers will encounter such problems in the actual use process. That is to say, only pay attention to the cutting speed, which will lead to the inability to effectively control the product quality. How to ensure the quality of laser cutting? Let Chuyu Optoelectronics tell you.
1. Preparation before cutting
In order to improve the cutting quality, it is necessary to carry out scientific and reasonable cutting design, and check and repair the drawings before cutting.
2. Cutting
In the cutting process, in addition to adjusting the relevant parameters of the machine according to the material thickness, the operator should also pay attention to the cutting quality of the sample. Batch cutting can only be carried out after the sample cutting quality is qualified.

3. Correctly adjust the focus position
Adjust the focus position according to the material and thickness of the incision. It is usually thin carbon steel below 5mm, with zero focus, focused on the workpiece surface, aluminum, stainless steel and other workpieces focused on the workpiece surface, and when cutting thick carbon steel plate, focused on the workpiece surface.
4. Adjust the auxiliary air pressure data
When cutting at a faster speed, the stability of air pressure has a great impact on the cutting burr. According to the data parameters, the best air pressure can be adjusted to ensure the quality after cutting.
In fact, no matter how high-tech the machine is, it can’t work without an operator. Therefore, it is necessary to remind the customer’s operator or engineer to learn how to use the machine from Chuyu Optoelectronics. If customers have any questions about the machine, please feel free to contact us.

Advantages of ultraviolet laser marking machine

Posted on by

Manufacturers increasingly require the use of identification marks on their products to facilitate traceability. The traditional marking method is usually ink printing. It is out of date, especially in the medical industry, because ink is often easy to remove, change or contaminate. This is why many manufacturers have started to use ultraviolet lasers to label their products.
The laser marking machine can easily identify the authenticity of parts without using physical tools to etch the surface of parts or transfer any substance to the surface. Instead, the laser is focused on the material to produce a nondestructive, easy to read mark. Here are four advantages of using laser marking machines in your manufacturing plant:
1. Flexible processing
Laser marking machines are also used for many products in a variety of industries, including aerospace, automotive, defense, medical and electronic components.
In many industries, product authenticity and traceability are required by law. For example, auto companies use part traceability to quickly determine when and where to produce parts in the event of part failure, which helps product recalls. Because of the importance of product identification, it is essential to use flexible and reliable marking techniques.

2. Overall speed
In traditional ink marking, printing equipment is usually mechanically complex, requiring longer downtime for maintenance and frequent cleaning. With UV laser marking machine, the downtime will not be prolonged due to cleaning or fixing the printer, and the whole engraving process is very fast and simple.
Almost all materials absorb UV laser better than other wavelengths and marking technologies, requiring less power, which can produce clear markings. Because the laser marking machine can ensure to provide high-quality and high contrast marks in one application, the process becomes simpler.
3. Maximize authenticity
The easy to read marks produced by UV lasers are far superior to printed marks or labels. Apple Rubber uses high-quality laser, which can focus on small light spots and generate peak power, thus producing clear and clear marks on O-rings and seals. This ensures that the part is clearly identifiable and that its markings are not altered or tampered with.
In the pharmaceutical industry, counterfeiting has become a huge problem with many social and economic significance. Since pharmaceutical manufacturers have restrictions on which types of labels can be used, they must choose a product that is tamper resistant, easy to read, and compatible with their specific environment. Because of these requirements, laser marking is the best choice for this industry and many other industries that require the authenticity of their products.
4. Reduce pollution
Although the ink in the traditional marking method is non-toxic, the printing equipment usually uses lubricants and solvents, which will become airborne and pollute the printing products. Medical manufacturing usually requires completely sterile products produced in classified cleanrooms. In this case, traditional tags will not be acceptable.
In the process of laser marking, the marking equipment will not directly contact with the product, which can achieve cleaning operations and reduce pollution. This creates a product identification option for industries that require sterile products. And ensure that external materials will not cause future pollution of the product.
