Optics cleaning
A visual inspection of the mirrors, beam window, and focus lens should be performed at least once a day.
DO NOT clean a n optic that is visually clean. Excessive cleaning can damage the optics.
The focus lens and the mirrors and the beam lens should not to be removed for
cleaning.
DO NOT remove the focus lens from its support for cleaning.
Before cleaning the optics, we recommend that you wash your hands thoroughly to
prevent contamination. NEVER touch any optic with your fingers. The acids from your
skin can destroy the coatings on the optics.
Mirrors and focus lens
(pict. 1, 2 and 3)
Inspect the 2 mirrors (through the holes and ) and the lens and and clean
them only if there is debris present.
Clean them only with a lens cleaning paper, through the holes and for the
mirors.
1. Moisten the lens cleaning paper with the Lens Cleaning solution supplied with the LASER system.
DO NOT use other types of cleaners or solutions.
2. Dust the mirror or the lens once with the lens cleaning paper (diagram 3). DO NOT press too strong
the lens cleaning paper as this can scratch the mirror or the lens.
3. If the mirror or the lens did not come clean, use a lens cleaning paper and repeat the procedure.
Do not worry about small pieces of lint that come off the lens cleaning paper. They will
be vaporized as soon as the LASER hits it. You can cause more damage to the mirror
or the lens by trying to get it off than by leaving it alone.
Maintenance schedule
Since the maintenance requirements of the LASER system depend on the type of material being run, the quantity of material
being removed, the hours of operation, and the quality of the exhaust blower, maintenance must be user-defined.
As a starting point, we recommend checking and, if necessary, cleaning the LASER system after every 8 hours of engraving
or cutting.
Depending on your particular operation, you may need to adjust this schedule.
If you notice 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.
You need to be the judge but 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.
Maintaining and cleaning the LASER system should not take more than five minutes a day. If you have any questions about
maintaining the LASER system, please contact your GRAVOGRAPH dealer.
