BASIC MAINTENANCE
Section 7-5
Adjustments and Lubrication
There are no periodic adjustments normally required. The bearings in the motion system will self adjust
to take up any clearances as they begin to wear. The belts are fiber reinforced and will not stretch under
normal use so that periodic tension adjustment is not necessary. Optical alignment is not necessary
because the laser and the #2 mirror are fixed.
All bearings in the system are sealed and do not require lubrication.
DO NOT lubricate the tracks that the
bearings ride in. The only lubrication that may be required is the screw threads for the table lifting
mechanism. After some time, contaminants can adhere to the lubricant, which can cause the engraving
table to bind up or sound squeaky. If this is the case, wipe off the contaminated grease with a soft cloth
dampened with alcohol and apply fresh white lithium grease to the screw threads.
NEVER SPRAY ANY
DEGREASING SOLUTIONS DIRECTLY ONTO THE THREADS . Run the table up and down to work in
the fresh grease. Repeat if necessary.
Maintenance Schedule
Since the maintenance requirements of the laser system is dependent on the type of material being run,
the quantity of material being removed, the hours of operation, and the quality of the exhaust blower, it
must be user defined.
As a starting point, we recommend the following schedule:
•
As necessary
Engraving table
Main enclosure
Top door window
•
Every 8 hours of engraving
Clean X-axis and Y-axis bearings
Clean X-axis and Y-axis rails and bearing tracks
Clean X-axis belt.
Check beam window, #2 mirror, #3 mirror, and focus lens for debris. Clean
ONLY if dirty.
•
Every month
Clean cooling fan filters
Clean and re-lubricate Z-axis lead screws
Check for X-axis and Y-axis belt wear – replace as necessary
Check and/or clean X-axis and Y-axis drive gears
Check for X-axis and Y-axis bearing wear – replace as necessary
Inspect system for loose screws and mechanical parts – tighten if necessary
•
Every 6 months
Exhaust plenum
If you are noticing a considerable buildup of debris on the optics and the motion system, clean
the system at more frequent intervals. If your system has remained relatively clean, you can
extend your cleaning intervals. Keep in mind that a clean machine is a better performing machine
and can extend the life of the parts as well as reduce the possibility of down time. If you have any
questions about maintaining the laser system, please contact our Technical Support Department.
