Laser engraving using for lasers to engrave or mark an object. The technique can be very complex and technical, and often a computer system is used for to drive the movements of the engraving machine.
The first step in the maintain it is the image that will be engraved. Most of engraving-machines now come with the high-technical instruments that use the best laser technology. An image may be captured by using the standard 2-D or the 3-D digital camera or the image that is redesigned after that the image is scanned into the computer before it is being transferred to the laser engraver.
When the image is transferred to the laser-engraving, the laser will start to trace the different pattern of the image. Computerized programming through controls the movement of the laser. There are many types of engraving machines that's all are available for you. For example, the CNC engraving machine. This machine is designed for simple and inexpensive parts which give you more advantages.
There are few steps for maintaining Laser-Engraving-Machine:1. Fill the lubricating oil to linear guide
As you know, the dust and smoke which is generated by the engraving machine will harm the guide rail after a period of usage, so we need to do the daily maintenance of the guide rail. Turn off the laser engraving machine and off the power, clean the guide rail with clean mull, then please drop the lubricating oil on the guide rail, also try to move the slide rod and make sure that the oil comes into the machine. Now we need to install the guide rail, install the screws in the right. Then fix the belt and slide rod, install the lens and then adjust the destination of X light.
2. Clean focusing mirror and the reflector
After some time of usage of the its dust and the smoke will adhere to the surface of the reflector and the mirror, which will affect the engraving and also will affect the engraving precision. We need to clean the three reflectors and one focusing mirror with pure alcohol weekly.
3. Oil-fill for the bearing
Laser engraving machine is equipped with lots of bearings, to keep the good engraving and result, need to be refilled with oil regularly. Then move the bearing at the same time and fill the bearing.
4. Adjustment of synchronous belt
On one laser engravingmachines there are some synchronous belts, images of the engraved words when the synchronous belt is too loose, result in the abrasion of synchronous belt when the synchronous belt is too tight. After a usage, adjust the synchronous belt until its degree of tightness is suitable, please adjust the taut screws of synchronous belt, it is adequate when there is no double images of the engraved words and the noise of the laser engraving machine is very low, or you can consult our technician.
5. Maintenance of the laser tube
The laser tube of the laser engraving machine is using the cycle water as the cooling system, there will be some furring's inside the laser tube. We can put a little vinegar into the water cycle. So, the laser tube life will become longer and will be in the best working condition.
