The following are some methods to extend the service life of the cutting head
I. Correct operation of equipment 1. Follow operating procedures: Operate strictly in accordance with the equipment operation manual to avoid damage to the cutting head due to incorrect operations. For example, when starting and shutting down the equipment, operate in the prescribed order to prevent instantaneous current from impacting the cutting head. 2. Control cutting parameters: Set cutting speed, laser power, auxiliary gas pressure and other parameters reasonably. Too high cutting speed or power may cause the cutting head to overheat and accelerate its wear; inappropriate auxiliary gas pressure may affect the cutting effect and even damage the cutting head. 3. Avoid overuse: Do not continuously use the cutting head for high-intensity cutting operations for a long time. Appropriate rest time should be arranged to give the cutting head a chance to cool and recover to reduce thermal fatigue and mechanical wear.
II. Maintenance 1. Cleaning and maintenance: Clean the cutting head regularly to remove impurities such as dust, oil stains and metal debris on the surface. Special cleaning tools and cleaners can be used to carefully wipe the lens and other parts of the cutting head to ensure its surface is clean and free of pollution. 2. Inspection and adjustment: Regularly check various parts of the cutting head, such as lenses, focusing lenses, nozzles, etc., to see if there is any damage, wear or looseness. Adjust or replace problematic parts in time to ensure the normal operation of the cutting head. 3. Lubrication and protection: Appropriate lubrication is carried out on the moving parts of the cutting head to reduce friction and wear. At the same time, protective devices such as protective covers and dust covers can be used to protect the cutting head from the influence of the external environment.
III. Environmental control 1. Maintain a clean working environment: Try to reduce pollutants such as dust, oil stains and corrosive gases in the working environment. Air purification equipment can be installed and the working area can be cleaned regularly to reduce the degree of pollution to the cutting head. 2. Control temperature and humidity: Ensure that the temperature and humidity of the working environment are within an appropriate range. Too high temperature may affect the performance and service life of the cutting head, and too low humidity may cause static electricity to be generated and damage the cutting head. 3. Prevent vibration and shock: Install the cutting equipment on a stable workbench to avoid vibration and shock. Vibration and shock may cause the parts of the cutting head to loosen or be damaged, affecting its service life.
