How to improve the working efficiency of sheet metal laser cutting machine

The laser cutting machine is to focus the laser emitted from the laser into a high power density laser beam through the optical path system. The laser beam is irradiated on the surface of the work piece, making the work piece reach the melting point or boiling point, while the high-pressure gas coaxial with the beam blows the molten or vaporized metal away.

At present, sheet metal laser cutting machine is a relatively common equipment in sheet metal processing, and its high-efficiency and flexible processing characteristics solve the shortcomings of traditional CNC punching machines. The principle is to irradiate the high-energy laser beam on the surface of the steel plate to release energy, so that the steel plate on the irradiated surface melts and evaporates, so as to achieve the cutting effect.

When using the sheet metal laser cutting machine, some customers will also mention the problem that the sheet metal laser cutting machine is not efficient compared with the punching machine, so how should we solve it?

1. The machine tool should be maintained frequently; the machine tool is a major component that tests the stability of the laser cutting machine. The running speed of the machine tool mainly depends on the motor, reducer, rail rack, etc. Therefore, if you want to improve the efficiency, the maintenance of these parts is also indispensable.

2. Replace the optical lens; the laser is mainly emitted by the laser, and then focused by the cutting head to achieve the cutting effect. There are many optical lenses inside the cutting head, through which the light is expanded and focused. Because the working environment of the laser cutting machine is very poor, after a long time of working on the optical lens, the dust will pollute the lens, and the laser light transmittance will be greatly reduced at this time, and the cutting efficiency will be reduced. Therefore, the optical lens also needs regular maintenance and replacement.

3. Upgrade the laser; when some customers cut thick plates, the cutting efficiency is very low because the laser power is too small. Therefore, if you want to increase the cutting speed and increase the laser cutting power, it is the most effective way to upgrade the laser.
