The importance of air compressor to laser cutting machine

The importance of air compressor to laser cutting machine

The laser cutting machine is already a relatively common machining equipment in the metal processing industry. When many people buy a laser cutting machine, they don’t know that the operation of the laser cutting machine actually requires a lot of auxiliary equipment to complete the processing. The air compressor is One of its auxiliary equipment, because many companies do not have a deep understanding of the role of air compressors, and do not pay attention to it, it will often have a great impact on the quality of the products cut by the laser cutting machine. So how important is the air compressor to the laser cutting machine? How is it maintained?

　　 1. The important role of air compressor in laser cutting machine processing

When the laser cutting machine is processing, it must use protective gas. Air is of course a simple and economical protective gas. The function of the air compressor is to compress a part of the air with high-purity oxygen and high-purity nitrogen to form the cutting gas to the cutting head. One part is used as the power source to supply the cylinder of the clamping workbench, and the other part is used to purge and remove dust from the optical system. The processing system becomes clean and dry gas, which is finally divided into three paths, which are respectively used as cutting gas, cylinder power source and light path positive pressure dust removal gas to maintain the normal operation of the laser cutting machine, so air compressor is a must for every laser cutting equipment Indispensable, it is also very important for laser cutting machines.

　　 2. Maintenance of the air compressor in the laser cutting machine

　　 Air compressor is an integral part of laser cutting machine system. The following is the maintenance and maintenance of its main components.

　　1, air filter element. Under normal circumstances, the dust and impurities on the surface of the air filter element should be removed every 500 hours, and every 2000 hours to check whether it needs to be replaced. The inspection or replacement cycle can be extended or shortened according to the dust content.

　　2, intake valve seals. It is necessary to check the condition of the sealing ring every 4000 hours of the air compressor of the laser cutting machine, and replace it if necessary.

　　 3. Compressor lubricant. It is necessary to check whether the lubricating oil is sufficient every 1000 hours, and replace the new oil every 4000 hours.

　　 4. Oil filter. New parts should be replaced every 2000 hours.

　　 5. Oil-steam separator. New parts need to be replaced every 4000 hours.

　　 6. Minimum pressure valve. Clean it every 4000 hours and check whether the opening pressure is normal.

　　7, safety valve. Check whether its movements are sensitive every 4000 hours.

　　 8. Oil drain valve. Water and dirt are discharged every 2000 hours.

　　 9. Transmission belt. Adjust the tightness every 2000 hours, check the wear condition every 4000 hours, and decide whether it needs to be replaced according to the wear condition.

　　 10. Motor maintenance. Perform maintenance according to the motor operating instructions.

In order to ensure the normal and reliable operation of the air compressor of the laser cutting machine and to ensure the service life of the unit, a detailed maintenance plan must be formulated to perform scheduled operations, regular maintenance, and regular inspection and maintenance to keep the air compressor unit clean and oil-free , No dirt.

　　 3. Maintenance and maintenance of auxiliary equipment refrigeration dryer

　　 1. Drain water 3-8 times a day (depending on the air humidity), and drain the air and water in the machine after get off work;

　　2, clean the air filter element once a month;

　　 3. Dust and clean the condenser fins once a month; 4) Replace the air filter element every six months.

　　 Four, maintenance and maintenance of stabilized power supply

　　 1. After the new stabilized power supply has been running for one month, cut off the main power supply and re-tighten all the connecting terminals in the stabilizer, especially the main circuit;

　　2. Check the elasticity of the sliding carbon brush once every three months, and use dry compressed air to blow away the toner and dust adhering to the components in the regulator.
