How to clean UV laser optics lens


There are many types of laser optical lenses, such as focusing lenses and protective lenses. But the UV laser optics lens in the laser system is consumable. In order to extend the service life of the laser cutting machine as much as possible and reduce the cost of use, the UV laser optics lens must be cleaned in strict accordance with this specification. During the replacement process, the placement, inspection, and installation of optical lenses must be done so that the lenses are not damaged and contaminated.

Precautions for correct cleaning of UV laser optics lens:

1. Please be sure to wear finger cots or rubber gloves to install or remove the UV laser optics lens.
2. Sharp instruments are forbidden to avoid scratching the surface of the lens.
3. Take the edge of the lens when taking the lens to avoid touching the film. The environment for testing and cleaning the lens must be dry and clean.
4. The workbench must maintain several layers of clean tissue and several clean lenses.
5. Do not speak above the lens, and keep potential contaminants (such as food, beverages, etc.) away from the work environment.

The steps to clean the UV laser optics lens correctly are as follows:

1. Blow off the floats on the surface of the original part by blowing a balloon.
2. Use analytical grade acetone to gently clean the lens. The cleaning should be done at one time to avoid wavy ribs.
3. If acetone cannot remove all the dirt, use acid vinegar to clean it.
4. When contamination and lens damage cannot be removed and removed, the only way to restore good performance is to replace the lens.

When using the machine, the UV laser optics lens should be cleaned and operated correctly, so that its life and performance will undoubtedly be significantly improved. This is also one of the ways we can ensure the life and stability of the laser cutting machine, with more prevention and Maintenance can make the laser cutting machine work longer, higher stability, and bring more benefits to the manufacturer.
