Solutions to Common Problems with Medical Laser Marking Machines
The stable operation of medical laser marking equipment requires three core elements: daily maintenance, parameter optimization, and fault detection.From lens cleaning to environmental control, from power adjustment to material adaptation, and on to rapid responses to emergencies, mastering these practical techniques can significantly increase the efficiency of the equipment.Regular maintenance and precise calibration not only extend the life of the equipment, but also ensure that laser markings on medical devices are clear and compliant.
Maintenance tips for medical laser marking machines.
To get the most out of a medical laser marking machine, you have to keep it in good repair.For example, you should clean the dust off the lens once a week and regularly lubricate the track. This will prevent the machine from sticking and jamming.If the hologram effect becomes faint, don't rush to adjust the parameters; first check to see if the lens is dirty or scratched.
Controlling the temperature and humidity.
The machines are very sensitive to the work environment, and the workshop temperature should be kept between 20 and 25 degrees Centigrade.Excessively high humidity can lead to condensation on the lenses, and excessively low humidity can cause static interference. It is suggested that you use a hygrometer to monitor the humidity.
Laser etching optimization.
If the label is blurry, it's probably because the parameters haven't been properly adjusted.First, start with the power. Medical instruments are usually made of harder materials, so you can try setting the power to 80-90 %.Frequency is also important. For metals, 20 kHz is the best, but for plastics, the frequency must be lowered below 15 kHz.
Different materials call for different strategies.
When marking titanium, remember to turn on the nitrogen gas to protect the metal, otherwise it will oxidize and turn yellow.For ceramics, it is suggested to use a low frequency, many times, to guarantee clarity, and to prevent the surface from cracking.
Emergency repair guide.
If the computer suddenly freezes, don't panic. First check to see if the power indicator light is working normally.If the problem is a software glitch, restarting the control computer will resolve 80 % of problems.When the laser head fails to emit a beam, the first thing to check is whether the water cooling system is functioning normally. If the water gets too hot, a protective mechanism is automatically triggered.
Quickly interpret emergency codes.
An E03 error code usually indicates that the light path has been displaced, and that the galvanometer mirror needs to be recalibrated.E07 represents abnormal heat dissipation. At this point you should quickly clean the fan filter. Too much dust on the heat sink will affect cooling effectiveness.
