How to clean laser cutting head

Why is it necessary to clean the laser cutting head
Laser cutting head is an important component of laser cutting machine. After a period of use, it will gradually lose its sharpness due to the high temperature generated during cutting and the influence of impurities encountered during cutting, seriously affecting its cutting effect. Therefore, we need to regularly clean and maintain the laser cutting head.

When cleaning the laser cutting head, there are several points to note:
1. It is not recommended to clean the laser cutting head with water, as water can cause damage to the cutting head.
2. Alcohol can be used to clean the laser cutting head. However, it should be noted that when cleaning the laser cutting head, alcohol should not come into contact with the lens and mirror surfaces of the laser head, otherwise it will cause abnormal refraction and reflection of the beam, which will affect the cutting effect.
3. Before cleaning the laser cutting head, it is necessary to turn off the power of the laser cutting machine and keep it away from any power source and laser source to avoid accidental injury.
