The specialized air compressor for the laser industry is a necessity for the operation of laser equipment and one of the indispensable key equipment in laser processing. However, with the growth of usage time and continuous changes in the working environment, various malfunctions are inevitable for the specialized air compressors in the laser industry. This article will list and explain the common faults and handling methods of specialized air compressors in the laser industry.
1、 Abnormal operation of specialized air compressors in the laser industry
Fault phenomenon: The air compressor makes an abnormal sound during operation, or the pressure is unstable during the pressurization process, or the speed is slow, or the refueling amount is insufficient.
Fault cause:
1. The air compressor oil is insufficient or aged, and needs to be replaced or added;
2. The cylinder piston ring is severely worn and needs to be replaced;
3. Severe wear on the inner wall of the cylinder or internal scaling, requiring cleaning or replacement;
4. The compressor filter element is blocked and needs to be replaced;
5. The air valve is dirty or worn and requires maintenance or replacement.
Handling method:
1. Replace or add engine oil;
2. Replace the cylinder piston ring;
3. Clean or replace the inner wall of the cylinder;
4. Replace the compressor filter element;
5. Maintain or replace the air valve.
2、 Air leakage from specialized air compressors in the laser industry
Fault phenomenon: The air compressor leaks during operation, resulting in insufficient pressure or slower pressure speed. In severe cases, it can cause the pressure cooker of the air compressor to burst.
Fault cause:
1. The sealing parts of the air compressor are aged or damaged and need to be replaced;
2. Components such as cylinders and valves do not meet the specifications and require adjustment or replacement;
3. There is dirt or oxidation on the sealing surface, which needs to be cleaned or polished;
4. Loose or broken threads at the pipeline connection require reconnection or replacement.
Handling method:
1. Replace damaged seals;
2. Adjust or replace components that do not meet specifications;
3. Clean or polish the sealing surface;
4. Reconnect or replace the pipeline connection.
3、 Electrical failure of specialized air compressors in the laser industry
Fault phenomenon: The air compressor cannot operate normally or suddenly stops during operation.
Fault cause:
1. Power failure, such as overload, phase loss, leakage, etc;
2. There is a problem with the wiring;
3. The motor has malfunctioned.
Handling method:
1. Check the power supply and resolve the fault;
2. Check the wiring and reconnect it to ensure good contact;
3. Check the motor and replace faulty components.
4、 Abnormal operating temperature of specialized air compressors in the laser industry
Fault phenomenon: The temperature of the air compressor during operation is abnormal, too high or too low.
Fault cause:
1. Insufficient or aged engine oil;
2. Blocked radiator or abnormal fan;
3. The operating environment is too hot or too cold.
Handling method:
1. Add or replace engine oil;
2. Clean the radiator or replace the fan;
3. Improve the operating environment, such as installing high and low temperature protection devices.
5、 Abnormal pressure of specialized air compressors in the laser industry
Fault phenomenon: The pressure of the air compressor is unstable or does not meet the standard during the pressurization process.
Fault cause:
1. The pressure switch has malfunctioned;
2. There is a problem with the safety valve;
3. The radiator has malfunctioned.
Handling method:
1. Replace the pressure switch;
2. Replace the safety valve;
3. Replace the radiator.
6、 Abnormal noise of specialized air compressors in the laser industry
Fault phenomenon: Excessive or abnormal noise during the operation of the air compressor.
Fault cause:
1. The inlet or outlet of the compressor is blocked or damaged;
2. Wear occurs inside the compressor;
3. The compressor belt is loose or worn.
Handling method:
1. Clean or replace the air inlet or outlet;
2. Replace worn parts;
3. Adjust or replace the belt.
7、 Abnormal vibration of specialized air compressors in the laser industry
Fault phenomenon: The vibration of the air compressor suddenly increases or appears abnormal during operation.
Fault cause:
1. Unstable or loose base;
2. Poor installation of internal components resulting in imbalance of the body;
3. The motor bearing or cylinder piston ring is severely worn;
Handling method:
1. Adjust or reinforce the base;
2. Reinstall internal components;
3. Replace severely worn components.
The above are common faults and their handling methods for specialized air compressors in the laser industry. In the actual use process, reasonable maintenance, repair, and upkeep of equipment, timely detection and elimination of faults, can extend the service life of the equipment, improve equipment efficiency, and ensure the stability and safety of the laser production process.
