Fiber laser cutting machine usage steps!

With the continuous advancement of laser technology, laser equipment is being used more and more widely in industrial production. It can process various metal materials, such as common stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum alloy and other materials. The use of fiber laser cutting machines brings convenience to people, while also improving efficiency and production process quality, and also brings greater economic benefits to enterprises. The correct use of fiber laser cutting machines is also critical to extending equipment life and improving machine efficiency. SAN LASER introduces the steps for using metal laser cutting machines.

On the surface, using a metal laser cutting machine only requires a light press of a button to produce the desired product. However, in order to greatly improve the working efficiency of the machine, we must also optimize the operation to the extreme. The specific operation process is as follows:

1. Loading

Determine the material to be processed, fix the sheet metal material flat on the processing machine, and then ensure the stability of the material placement to avoid shaking during the cutting process, resulting in the cutting accuracy not meeting the requirements.

2. Check the operation of the equipment

Adjust the auxiliary gas for cutting: Select the auxiliary gas for cutting according to the material of the processed plate, and adjust the pressure of the cutting gas according to the material and thickness of the processed material. To ensure that cutting cannot be performed when the pressure is lower than a certain value, thereby avoiding the scrapping of processed parts and damage to the focusing lens.

3. Import drawings

Operate the console, input the product cutting pattern, cutting material thickness and other parameters, then adjust the cutting head to the appropriate focus position, and then reflect and adjust the nozzle center.

4. Check the cooling system

Start the voltage stabilizer and chiller, set and check whether the water temperature and water pressure are normal, and whether they match the water pressure and water temperature required by the laser.

5. Start cutting with the metal laser cutting machine

Start the laser, and then turn on the machine tool for processing. During the processing, observe the cutting situation at any time. If there is a possible collision of the cutting head, stop cutting in time, and continue cutting after the danger is eliminated.

Although the above five points are very brief, it takes a lot of time to practice and familiarize yourself with each operation detail in the actual operation process.

After using the metal laser cutting machine, you need to shut down the machine to reduce the failure of the fiber laser and increase the service life of the machine. The specific operations are as follows:

1. Turn off the laser.

2. Turn off the chiller.

3. Turn off the gas and exhaust the gas in the pipeline.

4. Lift the Z axis to a safe height, turn off the CNC system, and seal the nozzle with transparent tape to prevent dust from contaminating the lens.

5. Clean the site and record the operation of the cutting machine on that day. If there is a malfunction, record it in time so that the maintenance personnel can diagnose and repair it.
