The Great Cold in the twenty-four solar terms is coming soon, which means that the weather has entered the coldest time of the year, and the temperature in some areas has dropped below zero. People need to add clothes, and fiber laser cutting machine should also pay attention to antifreeze to avoid damage to laser cutting machines due to freezing in the cold winter. This winter antifreeze plan for laser cutting machines must be kept well.
The basic principle of antifreeze of fiber laser cutting machine is to prevent the coolant in the laser cutting machine from reaching the "freezing point". There are several specific methods. Let's list them one by one.
Method 1: Do not turn off the water cooler after the fiber laser cutting machine is not working.
After the fiber laser cutting machine is not working, ensure that the power supply will not be cut off (power outage), and do not turn off the water cooler. Keep the coolant in a circulating state, and at the same time, the normal temperature can be adjusted to about 10°C. In this way, the coolant temperature will not reach the freezing point, so it will not damage the laser cutting machine.
Method 2: Drain the coolant in the fiber laser cutting machine
Drain the coolant in each component of the equipment through the drain port of the fiber laser cutting machine. And inject pure gas to ensure that there is no coolant in the entire water circulation cooling system. This can also ensure that the laser cutting machine will not be damaged by low temperature.
Method 3: Replace the coolant in the fiber laser cutting machine
In winter, cars running on the road will replace the antifreeze for winter, and car antifreeze can also be added to the equipment. But you must choose a big brand of antifreeze, otherwise the antifreeze contains impurities, which will stick to the pipes of lasers and other components and cause damage to the equipment. Antifreeze cannot replace pure water and active ion water for year-round use. It must be replaced in time after winter is over.The above methods play an important role in whether the laser cutting machine can work normally in winter and the safety of the equipment. It is recommended to use the first two methods. Method 1 saves time and effort, but if there is a sudden power outage, it may damage the laser cutting machine. Method 2 is quite laborious and wastes resources. But it is indeed safer and more effective than the other two methods.
Warm reminder:
In the second year, before the fiber laser cutting machine starts to operate, start the mechanical equipment and check the whole machine to see if there are any missing oils and coolants. They should be replenished and replaced in time, and the reasons for deterioration should be found out. This will better improve the efficiency of the fiber laser cutting machine.
