1.  How to keep laser cutting machine in good condition? How to maintain a laser cutter? The following eight points might be of some help for you.

To maintain a  laser cutting machine, the cooling system must be grounded. Clean the water tank and water circuit on a regular basis. The temperature control point of the cooling temperature control water tank must be appropriate, otherwise we may damage the laser tube. Dew formation might also come up.What is worse, the laser power will be reduced. The cold water might head fall off. Therefore we will shorten the life greatly.  Meanwhile, sometimes it can not work, resulting in continuous pipe replacement.

2. To maintain a  laser cutting machine, rightly install the laser tube fulcrum of the laser cutting machine. The fulcrum should be at 1/4 of the total length of the laser tube. Otherwise, the spot mode of the laser tube will be deteriorated. Sometimes the spot will become several points within a period of time, causing the laser power reduction. Therefore, cannot meet the requirements.

3. To keep laser cutting machine in good condition, water protection should always be inspected and cleaned. https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennyliu-yostpipe/

4. The suction device should be checked and cleaned regularly, and the fan duct should be cleaned. Otherwise, a lot of smoke and dust cannot be discharged. This contaminates the lens and the laser tube. Sothat the mechanical and electronic parts are easily oxidized and cause poor contact.

5. Focus lens and reflector inspection, the lens frame will become hot after a time of working. The lens surface will become discolored and rusty. When peeling and cracking comes in to being, we must replace objects. Especially many customers use air pumps and air compressors, so focus lenses this can easily causes accumulation of water on the surface. So it is necessary to regularly ensure the cleanliness and quality of the lenses in the optical path system. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCK6Ae6MDir90sigNtg-q8xQ/playlists?

6. Ensure a good working environment for the machine.The working environment of the laser cutting machine should not be too harsh. For example, the ambient temperature is higher than 30 degrees and lower than 18 degrees. There is too much dust and serious air pollution. This will cause damage of o the machin And the failure rate will continue to rise. The electrical accessories in a humid environment can easily to go wrong.

7. We need to matchthe power grid rightly for the laser cutting machine.

8. The working current of the laser tube must be reasonable. It cannot work at full power for a long time. We must reasonably applythe laser and save the laser. The optical path system should be cleaned regularly, otherwise the laser tube will age and rupture prematurely. During operation the power of the laser equipment should be adjusted 50-60% of the total power. And then adjust the working speed according to the material, this way is the best working state of the laser tube.
