Six precautions for typesetting of fiber laser marking machine

Before using the laser cutting machine, we will import the prepared drawings into the program, and then use the typesetting software to arrange the graphics on a board, so that the laser cutting machine can process the products in batches. Among them, although the typesetting process is very short, there is a lot of knowledge hidden in it. If the typesetting is slightly wrong, it will have a great impact on the cutting effect of the entire board. So, here's a list of six things to keep in mind when it comes to typography.

1. Corner melting

When cutting the corner of a thin steel plate at a reduced speed, the laser will melt the corner due to overheating. A small radius is generated at the corner to maintain the high-speed cutting of the laser and avoid overheating and melting of the steel plate when cutting the corner, so as to obtain good cutting quality, reduce cutting time and improve productivity.

2. Spacing between parts

Generally, when cutting thick plates and hot plates, the spacing between parts should be large, because the thickness The heat of the hot plate has a great influence. When cutting corners, sharp corners and small graphics, it is easy to burn the edges and affect the cutting quality.

3. Lead setting

In the process of cutting thicker plates, in order to make the cutting seam well connected, prevent the beginning and End-point burns often lead to a transition line at the beginning and end of the cutting, respectively called the lead and the tail. The lead and the tail are useless to the workpiece itself, so they should be arranged outside the scope of the workpiece. At the same time, be careful not to put the lead Set in sharp corners and other places that are not easy to dissipate heat. The connection between the lead and the kerf should use a circular arc transition as much as possible to make the machine move smoothly and avoid the burn caused by the corner stop.

4. Co-edge cutting

Two or more parts are co-edge into a combination, the rule of large quantities The graphics should be co-edge as much as possible, and co-edge cutting can greatly shorten the cutting time and save raw materials.

5. Parts Collision

In order to maximize production efficiency, many laser cutting equipment operates continuously for 24 hours. In addition, the unmanned automatic loading/unloading device is used to hit the overturned parts that have been cut and cause damage to the cutting head and production interruption, resulting in greater losses. This requires attention when sorting:

①Select the appropriate cutting path, detour the already cut parts, and reduce collisions.

②Select the best cutting route to reduce the cutting time.

③ Automatically or manually combine multiple small parts with tiny connections. After cutting, the removed parts can easily disconnect the tiny connections.

6. Remaining material processing

After cutting the parts, the skeleton-shaped residual material on the workbench of the laser cutting equipment needs to be Remove as soon as possible to facilitate subsequent cutting operations. For laser cutting equipment that does not have an automatic discharge device, the skeleton-shaped residual material can be cut into small pieces for easy and quick removal. This avoids the operator's personal injury caused by moving heavy and sharp-edged remnants.
