Find & Buy CO2 Laser Marking Systems for Starters & Experts

Last Updated on Jan 06, 2024 at 12:03:38

A CO2 laser marking machine is an automatic printing tool using a gas laser generator with a wavelength of 10.64μm, which uses the high-energy beam released by CO2 gas molecules to engrave photo, pattern, text, or line on wood, paper, ABS, PVC, resin, acrylic, leather, glass, ceramic, and rubber. It is equipped with a high-speed scanning galvanometer and a high-precision beam expander focusing system for fine marking. CO2 laser marking is realized by using the thermal effect of the laser on the material. Or by heating and vaporizing the surface material to expose the deep layer of different colors. Or by heating the surface of the material with laser energy, it will undergo microscopic physical changes, so that its reflective properties will change significantly. Or some chemical reactions that occur when heated by laser energy, displaying etched graphics and text information. With a conveyor belt, it can mark on the fly, with a rotary attachment, it can engrave a cylinder, and with an XY moving table, it can achieve automatic segmentation and etching of large areas.

Definition

CO2 laser marking machine is an automatic fine laser engraving system that uses a gas laser with a wavelength of 10.64 μm to permanently mark graphics and texts on the 2D/3D surface of non-metallic materials, as well as uses a higher power CO2 RF laser tube to precisely cut out personalized greeting cards, invitation cards and Christmas cards with paper, cardstock and cardboard.

Applications

A carbon dioxide laser can mark wood, plywood, MDF, bamboo, leather, fabric, paper, rubber, PMMA, ABS, PVC epoxy resin, plastic, acrylic, glass, architectural ceramics, and organic materials. It can also cut some paper products.

It is used in some products and industries that require more precise and accurate such as medicine, watches, glasses, instrumentation, clothing, bags, shoes, buttons, glass products, beverages, cosmetics, food and beverage packaging industries, textile industry, handicraft supplying industry, printing industry, as well as manufacturing industries for electronic components and communication products.

Working Principle

It is a gas laser based on a carbon dioxide gas mixture with a wavelength of 10.6 micrometers, it has a relatively high efficiency and feature a very good beam quality.

It uses carbon dioxide gas as the medium to amplify the laser energy to generate a high-energy beam, and uses a computer to control the vibrating mirror to change the optical path to the material, and then converts the light energy into heat energy instantly, so that the surface of the material is instantly melted or even gasified, thus forming a mark .

How To Use?

Check the waterway and circuit before turning on the machine. The boot sequence is:

Step 1. Turn on the incoming line power and turn on the key switch. At this time, the machine's air extraction and refrigeration system are energized, and the ammeter shows a value of about 7A.

Step 2. Wait for 5 to 10 seconds, press the trigger button on the external control panel, the ammeter displays a value of zero, after 3 to 5 seconds, the krypton lamp is ignited, and the ammeter displays a value of 7A. (Refer to the operation manual of laser power supply).

Step 3. Turn on the power supply of the galvanometer.

Step 4. Turn on the computer and call up the required marking file.

Step 5. Adjust the power to the working current (10~18A), and then you can start marking.

After marking, turn off the power of each component in the reverse direction according to the above sequence:

Step 1. Adjust the working current of the power supply to the minimum (about 7A).

Step 2. Turn off the computer.

Step 3. Turn off the power of the galvanometer.

Step 4. Press the stop button.

Step 5. Turn off the key switch.

Step 6. Disconnect incoming power.

How To Maintain?

In order for the machine to work smoothly, the daily maintenance is indispensable. As long as the parts are not damaged, we can maintain it by ourselves. Here are some tips for care and maintenance.

Components that require daily maintenance: vibrating mirrors, lasers, power lines, and lifting guide rails.

1. The first is the galvanometer. There are two motors in the vibrating mirror that control the laser circuit, one is in the direction of the x-axis and the other is in the direction of the y-axis. There are magnetic components in the motor, and there are two lenses that cooperate with the motor to reflect the laser. Therefore, the vibrating mirror needs to be kept away from strong magnetism, strong Electricity, strong shock current items, avoid touching the galvanometer with hands and items. If the lens is dusty, you can use a rag and a small amount of alcohol to clean it, and wipe it in one direction.

2. The laser generates light beams, so it needs to dissipate heat. Regularly clean the dust. Use an air gun to blow along the direction of the air duct. At the same time, clean the relevant circuit boards to avoid burning out due to poor heat dissipation of the machine. The air gun is a good tool and can also clean the laser with cold water. machine.

3. Check whether the grounding of the equipment is reliable, and the power cord and plug are intact to avoid leakage accidents.

4. The guide rail for adjusting the focus of the machine is often used, so it is necessary to add lubricating oil and do a good job of sanitation once a month to avoid guide rail jamming and inaccurate focus. Regularly check whether the equipment fan is normal. The fan is used to dissipate heat. To ensure smooth rotation.

In addition, it is necessary to develop good usage habits when using the machine. Before use, check whether the software settings have changed, and whether the function buttons and indicators are normal. After use, clean the surface of the workbench, monitor, and keyboard with a clean rag, and remove the garbage in time, especially the residue or powder after marking, clean the surrounding sanitation, and keep it ventilated.

Note: When shutting down, please turn off the laser power first and then close the marking software, otherwise it will damage the life of the laser.

If the machine uses water-cooling equipment, it is necessary to replace the circulating water and clean the water tank. Clean it once a week and replace the water inside. If the circulating water inside is too long, it is not good for the machine. The water quality and temperature of the circulating water will directly affect the service life of the laser tube. It is recommended to use pure water or distilled water, and keep the water temperature below 35°C.

Troubleshooting

1. Abnormal light emission and heat in the light-guiding joints.

It is common that the light guide joint is loose and the tube is not installed properly.

Inspection: Same light correction.

Solution: Replace or adjust the light guide section and correct the light path.

2. The laser power drops.

It is common in tube aging.

Inspection: Use a multimeter to check the voltage regulator, and use a high-voltage meter to check the working voltage of the tube.

Solution: Replace the aging tube and replace the damaged components.

3. The indication of the voltmeter is common when there is an open circuit in the power supply line. Poor contact with foot switch or manual switch.

Inspection: Measure with a multimeter.

Solution: Repair or replace.

4. The voltmeter has no indication.

Frequently, the fuse is broken, or the circuit is open.

Inspection: Measure with a multimeter.

Solution: Replace the fuse, or connect the circuit.

5. The power indicator does not light up.

Commonly, the fuse is broken, the incoming wire is in poor contact, the indicator light circuit is bad or the indicator light is broken.

Inspection: Check the fuse, check the power supply line, and check the indicator circuit.

Solution: Replace the fuse, repair the wire and replace the indicator light.

6. Continuous burning of the fuse is usually caused by a short circuit in the machine and serious dirt in the machine.

Inspection: Check the wire level by level, mostly because the high voltage part has a short circuit.

Solution: Repair the short circuit and remove the dirt.

7. There is discharge sound or arc light in the machine. There is usually dust, water or air humidity and corrosive gas in the machine.

Inspection: Observe the discharge point in a dark place.

Solution: Remove dust, water, and change the working environment.

8. The laser output is unstable.

It is common in the machine where there is poor contact, and there are slight intermittent short-circuit points in the machine.

Inspection: Check the line level by level.

Solution: Replace the wire, re-weld the wire end, and clean it.
