Laser marking machine

1. Laser marking is unclear or uneven

Reasons:

  • Laser power is set too low, resulting in insufficient marking depth.
  • The laser focus is misaligned, causing uneven energy distribution.
  • Marking speed is too fast, reducing contact time between the laser beam and material surface.
  • The material surface is uneven or contaminated (e.g., oil stains, dust).
    Solutions:
  • Adjust the laser power and marking speed to match the material.
  • Check and adjust the focal distance to ensure proper alignment.
  • Clean the material surface to remove any contaminants.
  • Test and fine-tune the parameters for optimal marking results.
2.Laser markings are not durable and easily wear off

Reasons:

  • Laser power is insufficient to embed energy effectively into the material surface.
  • The material surface is smooth or hard, reducing the laser’s impact.
    Solutions:
  • Increase laser power or adjust the pulse frequency to penetrate the material surface deeply.
  • Consider using alternative materials or modifying the marking process parameters.
3.Marking machine system faults or alarms

Reasons:

  • Improper software settings or program errors.
  • Hardware issues with the laser or other components.
  • Unstable power supply or low voltage.
    Solutions:
  • Check software configurations and parameter settings for accuracy.
  • Restart the marking machine and verify hardware connections.
  • Inspect the power supply voltage for stability and use a stabilizer if necessary.
4.Laser marking results in focal deviation or blurriness

Reasons:

  • The laser focus is incorrectly adjusted, or the optical path is misaligned.
  • The marking head or reflective mirrors are contaminated, affecting focus quality.
    Solutions:
  • Inspect and adjust the laser focus to ensure accurate alignment with the material surface.
  • Clean the lenses and mirrors of the laser marking machine to remove dust or stains.
  • Perform regular equipment maintenance to ensure proper optical path alignment.
5.Laser marking machine fails to start

Reasons:

  • Unstable power supply or faulty power adapter.
  • Incorrect startup parameters or software issues.
  • Aging or damaged laser tube, reducing energy output.
    Solutions:
  • Inspect the power supply voltage for consistency, and replace the stabilizer if needed.
  • Restart the software and verify system parameter settings.
  • Replace the laser tube if it is damaged.
6.Inconsistent marking color

Reasons:

  • Laser power is too high or too low, causing uneven surface treatment.
  • Uneven material surface or contamination during the marking process.
    Solutions:
  • Adjust laser power, frequency, and speed to optimize marking parameters.
  • Keep the material surface clean and regularly inspect the marking area.
  • Test various process parameters to achieve the desired marking effect.
7.Excessive vibration or noise during marking

Reasons:

  • Mechanical components of the laser marking machine are loose or unbalanced.
  • Worn-out motors or transmission parts.
    Solutions:
  • Inspect mechanical components, especially the frame and laser head, for looseness.
  • Check the motor and transmission system, and replace damaged parts as needed.
  • Perform regular maintenance to ensure mechanical stability and balance.
8.Laser overheating or insufficient cooling

Reasons:

  • Prolonged operation of the laser marking machine with inadequate cooling.
  • Extended use of the laser, leading to overheating.
  • Faulty cooling system, such as a malfunctioning fan or water cooling system.
    Solutions:
  • Regularly inspect the laser and cooling system to ensure proper functioning.
  • Schedule reasonable work intervals to avoid prolonged high-load operation.
  • Clean cooling fans and water cooling systems to maintain effective heat dissipation.
9.Marking machine errors or misalignment

Reasons:

  • Vibrations during transportation or use, causing component misalignment.
  • Faulty control system, leading to coordinate errors.
    Solutions:
  • Calibrate the machine and inspect the coordinate system and mechanical alignment.
  • Perform routine maintenance to ensure seamless hardware and software operation.
10.Software settings are incorrect or fail to control the machine

Reasons:

  • Incompatibility between the marking software and the operating system.
  • Incomplete or conflicting driver installation.
    Solutions:
  • Verify software and operating system compatibility, and update to the latest version.
  • Reinstall or update the device drivers to eliminate conflicts with the software.

Laser welding machine

1.Cracks, holes, pits, or other defects appear in the weld seam

Solution:

  • Select the appropriate focus position and focus diameter, and adjust the power and speed to achieve optimal welding results.
  • Keep the workpiece surface clean and use suitable shielding gas to prevent oxidation.
  • Ensure proper preparation and alignment of the workpiece.
2.Welding speed is inconsistent; too slow or too fast affects welding efficiency

Solution:

  • Adjust the welding speed according to the material and welding requirements.
  • Ensure the focus position of the handheld laser welding machine is accurate to avoid excessively slow or fast welding speeds.
  • Keep the optical system clean and stable.
3.Unstable laser beam or contaminated/damaged optical path

Solution:

  • Regularly inspect and maintain the optical system, ensuring lenses and mirrors are clean and intact.
  • Calibrate the optical path to ensure the laser beam accurately focuses on the welding point.
4.Unstable power supply to the laser welding machine, causing significant current fluctuations

Solution:

  • Check the power cable to ensure stable power voltage.
  • If the power issue persists, replace or repair the power supply unit.
5.The welding machine light is on, but no light is emitted in automatic mode (manual mode works normally)

Solution:

  • Check whether the connectors are secure.
  • Confirm that the internal and external control mode settings are correct.
6.Weld seam appears black during welding

Solution:

  • Ensure nitrogen gas is turned on.
  • Adjust the shielding gas flow direction to oppose the movement direction of the workpiece.
7.Unstable laser power, fluctuating power output results in inconsistent welding quality

Solution:

  • Regularly check the laser's working condition and replace aging components if necessary.
  • Clean the cooling system's filter to ensure smooth water flow.
  • Use a voltage stabilizer to ensure stable power supply.
8.Welding splatter issue: metal particles appear on the material or workpiece surface after welding

Solution:

  • Thoroughly clean the material or workpiece surface before laser welding to remove oil stains, contaminants, or zinc coatings.
9.Laser misalignment in the main optical path

Solution:

  • Adjust the full-reflective and semi-reflective mirrors in the main optical path.
  • Use imaging paper to inspect and align the circular beam spot.
10. Shutter does not open smoothly

Solution:

  • Inspect the shutter connectors and apply lubricant to ensure smooth mechanical movement.
11. Insufficient welding penetration depth

Solution:

  • Increase the laser energy by adjusting the pulse width and increasing the current.
  • Adjust the focal distance to bring the focusing lens closer to the focal position.
12. Frequent equipment shutdown

Solution:

  • Inspect and replace faulty sensors.
  • Check electrical connections to ensure proper contact.
  • Perform regular maintenance on the cooling system, including cleaning filters and pipelines.
