When customers use laser equipment, they may not be familiar with the equipment and will often incur a lot of costs without reducing the cost of using the laser cutting machine. How customers want to control costs. Next, let’s look at how to control the cost of the laser cutting machine in the operation process.
How to reduce the cost of laser cutting machine?
Methods to reduce the cost of metal laser cutting machine:
1. Metal laser cutting machine is usually used to reduce the number of laser switches as much as possible. Normally, the laser can be switched off without using a metal laser cutter. In addition, under the condition of meeting the cutting requirements, the use power should be reduced as much as possible to save power consumption.
2. Use the metal laser cutting machine in strict accordance with the operating procedures. The metal laser cutting machine is a high-tech equipment. Improper use will affect the entire mechanical system. The quality of the cutting workpiece is unstable, which seriously affects the quality of the equipment, which is irreparable.
3. The focus lens of the metal laser cutting machine is clean. The focusing lens is the only lens in contact with the treated surface. During the operation of the laser cutting machine, metal chips and dust will be generated. These residues will adhere to the focusing lens. If not cleaned in time, the light transmittance will be reduced, the heat absorption rate will be increased, and the cutting accuracy will be affected. Cleaning the focusing lens in time can reduce unnecessary material waste and the cost of replacing the lens.
4. After the metal laser cutting machine works for a long time, the parts will be worn, and the instability of the equipment will affect the cutting accuracy. Therefore, maintenance of equipment is also a way to extend the service life of equipment and improve the cutting accuracy.
5. About 80% of the use cost of the laser cutting machine comes from the gas consumption. As the main energy supply for laser cutting machine and CNC laser cutting machine, familiarity and understanding of the gas application principle of laser cutting machine will help to reduce the use cost of gas.
Generally, maintenance of equipment operation can reduce the use cost of metal laser cutting machine, extend the service life of equipment, and ensure the cutting quality of equipment.
