How to Resolve Instability Issues with High-Power Fiber Laser Cutting Heads
Introduction
High-power fiber lasers are popular due to their high power, adjustability, and ability to withstand harsh environments. However, some users report instability during operation. Here's how to handle such situations:
Troubleshooting Steps
1. Sudden Automatic Elevation of Cutting Head During Laser Cutting
If this happens, it's advisable to immediately terminate the laser cutting operation. Check whether the following head nozzle of the laser is overheating. If it's hot, this is generally caused by an improper laser optical path. Adjusting the optical path can effectively resolve this issue.
2. Normal Operation Resumes After the Laser Cutting Head Hits the Plate
This problem is usually related to parameter settings. Adjusting the upper and lower limit values of the laser cutting head can solve the issue.
3. Excessive Following Distance of the Laser Cutting Head
If you encounter this problem during operation, check if the set following distance doesn't meet the requirements. Open the debugging software of the following head and adjust the relevant values accordingly.
Conclusion
The above are the causes and solutions to instability of the cutting head when using a high-power fiber laser. To ensure the correctness of laser cutting, operators should undergo training before starting work.
