With the rapid development of laser technology, laser pipe cutting machines are more and more widely used in many industries. The emergence of laser pipe cutting equipment has brought subversive changes to the cutting process of the traditional metal pipe industry. The laser pipe cutting machine has the characteristics of high automation, high efficiency, and high output. For pipes of different materials, there is no need to replace the corresponding saw blades, and there is no need to stop midway. It is very suitable for mass production.
In order to maintain a high performance of the laser pipe cutting machine, it is necessary to maintain the equipment regularly, so how to maintain the pipe cutting machine? In addition to the maintenance of the equipment bed, the maintenance of the chuck is also extremely important. The following are 4 tips for maintaining the chuck.
1. For the lubrication of the chuck, apply lubricant to the chuck regularly to ensure that the chuck can still have high precision during movement. Pay attention when lubricating. Incorrect lubrication may cause the pneumatic chuck to fail to work normally when the air pressure is low, the clamping force is weakened, the clamping accuracy is poor, the wear is abnormal or stuck, so pay attention to the correct lubrication operation when lubricating .
2. Use molybdenum disulfide grease, usually black grease, and inject the grease into the chuck nozzle until the grease overflows the jaw surface or the inner hole of the chuck. If the chuck operates at high speed for a long time or uses oxygen-assisted processing for a long time, more lubrication is required, and the frequency of lubrication must be adjusted according to the actual working conditions.
3. After the processing is completed every once in a while, it is necessary to use a high-pressure air gun to deal with the dust residue on the chuck itself and the slideway. It is recommended to clean the jaws of the chuck every 3-6 months to keep the surface clean and lubricate. Check whether the parts are broken and worn, and replace them if the wear is serious. After the inspection, the jaws should be properly lubricated and installed before use.
4. Special workpieces or non-standard workpieces need to be clamped and processed with specific chucks. The standard laser pipe cutting chuck is suitable for symmetrical and closed tube shapes. If you forcefully use it to clamp irregular or strange workpieces, it will cause chuck abnormalities; if the air supply pressure of the chuck is too high, the chuck will be under high pressure or after shutdown The chuck also clamps the workpiece, which will reduce the life of the chuck and cause problems such as excessive chuck clearance.
5. Prevent the exposed metal of the chuck from rusting. Rust prevention is another key point. Rusting of the chuck will reduce the clamping force and cannot clamp the workpiece, which seriously affects the production accuracy and efficiency.
The above method is the main method to maintain the laser pipe cutting machine. Of course, the cautious use of the operator and the standardized operation steps of the staff are also important factors for maintaining the performance of the pipe cutting machine.
