Advantages and development prospects of automatic loading and unloading equipment–Oriole

Advantages and development prospects of automatic loading and unloading equipment

automatic loading and unloading equipment

Firstly, the suction cup is automatically loaded.

In traditional manual feeding, for example, a 3m×1.5m sheet requires at least three workers to lift the sheet. And need an electric hoist to assist the feeding of heavy sheets. The time required for a sheet is at least three minutes, and the safety risk is very high and big. After using the suction cup to automatically load the material. It only needs manual button operation, which takes 10 seconds to complete the material. Because the equipment’s ergonomics and safety protection measures are in place, personal injury and safety accidents are zero. Andavoid the open type. Production is easy to cause harm to people, while improving work efficiency and reducing labor costs.

Secondly, it can meet the diverse needs of users.

When the production site is narrow and long, can load the equipment from the back of the fuselage workbench. When the site is relatively spacious, can load it from the side of the fuselage, according to the different needs of users, it can meet diversified production conditions and achieve flexibility. It can also ensure compact structure and small floor space.

Thirdly, the overall system has a high degree of automation.

The automatic loading and unloading equipment of the laser cutting machine can realize the cyclic operation of the whole process of plate loading-cutting-unloading through one-key operation. It can also cut manually and step by step. It can match with a three-dimensional material library to intelligently divide materials of different thicknesses. Layer management and easy control.

Fourthly, the function can be expanded at any time to realize the production of multiple machines on the same line.

One automatic loading and unloading equipment can load and unload multiple laser cutting machines. In the later stage, if you expand your production, you can connect multiply units at the same time. Without changing the inherent structure, more and more manufacturers will choose laser cutter and will improve the function of laser equipment.

Fifthly, strong your own brand.

The high degree of equipment automation can enhance the company’s brand image and help strengthen the company’s market competitive advantage.

Maintenance of fiber laser cutter–Oriole

Maintenance of fiber laser cutter

More and more company choose laser cutter,  we will show you maintenance of fiber laser cutter in this article.

1. Lens cleaning for fiber laser cutting machine maintenance

Fiber laser cutter

Fiber laser cutter

The cutting head of the fiber laser cutting machine has protective lenses, focusing lenses, etc., whose function is to reflect and focus the laser light from the laser head through the lens. The lens is prone to dust and other contaminants, resulting in laser loss or lens damage.
Maintenance method + cycle: check the lens every two months, check the protective lens or focusing lens before going to get off work every day, if there is dust and other contaminants, use a professional cleaning cloth and absolute ethanol to wipe gently in the same direction, if there is If damaged, replace it immediately.

2. Water tank cleaning for fiber laser cutting machine maintenance

Before the fiber laser cutting machine works, the water quality of the water cooler tank must be checked. The water quality and temperature of the circulating water directly affect the service life of the laser.
Maintenance method + cycle: regularly replace the circulating water and clean the water tank. Replace it every six months or before long-term use.

3. Fan cleaning for fiber laser cutting machine maintenance

The use of the fan on the fiber laser cutting machine for a long time will cause the fan and air duct to accumulate a large amount of solid dust, which will cause the fan to generate a lot of noise, and it is also not conducive to dust removal and deodorization.
Maintenance method + cycle: loosen the connection hose clamp between the exhaust pipe and the fan, remove the exhaust pipe, and clean the dust in the exhaust pipe and the fan. Clean the fan once a month.

4. Guide rail cleaning for fiber laser cutting machine maintenance

Rails and racks are one of the core components of the equipment, and their function is to guide or support the equipment. During the operation of the equipment, due to the large amount of dust and smoke generated during the processing of the workpiece, the smoke and dust will be deposited on the surface of the guide rail and the frame for a long time, which will affect the processing accuracy of the equipment.
Maintenance method + cycle: first wipe the original lubricating oil and dust on the guide rail and the frame with a non-woven cloth, and then replace the new guide rail lubricating oil. Clean the guide rails and racks once a month.

5. Maintenance of screws and couplings

After the fiber laser cutting machine has been working for a period of time, the screws and couplings at the motion connection are easy to loosen, which affects the stability of the mechanical motion.

How to choose a suitable laser cutting machine.–Oriole

How to choose a suitable laser cutting machine.

  • Firstlly, choose according to the material to be processed and the cutting thickness

Choosing a suitable power according to the actual material and the thickness of the cutting, so that purchase a suitable type laser cutting machine and the processing format can be determined. And it can be a simple pavement for the later procurement work. The application field of laser cutting machine involves many industries such as sheet metal processing, metal processing, advertising, technology, medical equipment and so on.

  • light

    how to choose a suitable laser cutting machine

    Secondly, choose according to the smooth cutting surface:

Whether the cutting surface of laser cutting has burrs or not is mainly determined by the cutting thickness and the gas used. There is no burr for cutting below 3mm. Nitrogen is the best gas, followed by oxygen, and air is the worst. The metal laser cutting machine has the least or no burrs, the cutting surface is very smooth, the speed is relatively high. And the material deformation is relatively small.

  • Thirdly, selection of core parts of laser cutting:

Imported lasers generally use more IPGs, and domestic ones generally use Raycus. At the same time, also need to pay attention to other parts of laser cutting , such as whether the motor is imported servo Motor, guide rail, bed, etc. Because they affect the cutting accuracy of the machine to a certain extent. One thing that needs special attention is the cooling system of the laser cutting machine-the cooling cabinet. Many companies directly use household air conditioners for cooling. In fact, everyone knows that the effect is very bad. The best way is to use industrial air conditioners. In order to achieve the best results.

  • Last but not least, power selection:

For example, most factories cut metal sheets below 6mm. There is no need to buy a high-power laser cutting machine. A 1000W laser cutting machine can meet the production needs. If the production volume is large, I worry that the 1000W efficiency is not as good as the high-power laser cutting machine. The best choice is to buy two or more small and medium-power laser cutting machines. This choice will help manufacturers in controlling costs and improving efficiency.

Any need welcome to contact us when you are free.

What is the market prospect of high-power laser cutting machine?–Oriole

What is the market prospect of high-power laser cutting machine?

What is the hottest topic in the laser cutting industry? It must be a 10,000-watt laser cutting machine. In recent years, the domestic laser cutting industry has a rising trend, and the development of laser cutting machine equipment has become more and more high-quality. The power of laser cutting machines has grown from the kilowatt level at the beginning to more than 10,000 watts,. What is the market prospect of high-power laser cutting machine?

  • Firstly, higher thickness.

In modern industrial manufacturing, laser cutting machines are widely used in the processing of materials such as stainless steel, manganese steel, aluminum, and aluminum alloys, and are widely used in various heavy and light industries. The market size of laser cutting machine alone accounts for more than 40% of the entire laser industry, and it is one of the most important application equipment in various industries in Canada. Among them, high-power laser cutting machines are widely loved by users.

Application of laser cutting machine

  • Secondly, higher speed.

Stainless steel is a popular processing material. Before the birth of the high-power laser cutting machine. The thickness of the stainless steel that the laser cutting machine can cut was just 12 mm or less.  When cutting stainless steel with a thickness of 10 mm, the cutting speed of a 10,000 watt laser cutting machine may be twice that of a kilowatt laser cutting machine.

  • Thirdly, higher efficiency.

Although the efficiency of high-power laser equipment is very high, high-power fiber laser cutting machines also have the problem of high prices. However,  I believe that high-jump power laser cutting opportunities become more and more friendly.
