How to prevent fiber laser cutting machine cutting performance decline

Time: Mar 15,2024 Author: Sintec Optronics View: 9

With the development of laser cutting technology, fiber laser cutting machines have been widely used. However, in the usage process, we may also find some issues, such as slower cutting speed, lower cutting precision, etc. This could be because the fiber laser cutting machine suffers wear and tear during long-term use, thereby affecting its cutting performance. Let's analyze the reasons for the decline in cutting performance of fiber laser cutting machines together:

  1. Power: After a long time of use, the laser power of the machine may decrease to a greater or lesser  extent, which will directly affect the cutting performance of the laser cutting machine.

  2. Distance: The distance between the workpiece and nozzle also affects the cutting effect of the laser cutting machine. So the proper distance needs to be adjusted without  affecting the cutting performance.

  3. Position: The focal  position directly affects the cutting progress. The diameter of the focal spot should be as small as possible to produce a narrow kerf. Adjusting the focal position is a good method if the cutting performance drops.

  4. Prolonged overloading production,lack of maintenance and improper operation by operators are all reasons that lead to the decline in cutting device performance.

In summary, we have found the reasons for the decline in laser cutting machine performance. Then we can take targeted measures to effectively prevent or slow down the decline in cutting performance in a timely manner.

1.     Pay attention to routine maintenance of the machine. Long-term machining will cause wear of parts, inevitably affecting the machine's cutting performance. Therefore, routine maintenance according to the manufacturer's daily maintenance schedule is very important.

2.     Standardize machine operation. Nowadays, major fiber laser cutting machine manufacturers will require customers to arrange dedicated personnel to receive training, training the machine operation process, and only assign them to work after qualification. Dedicated operation can not only facilitate the normal work of fiber laser cutting machines but also effectively avoid safety accidents.
