In the laser cutting machine, its main work is the laser tube, so we should understand the laser tube. We all know clearly the importance of laser tubes in laser equipment. Now we will judge the most common laser tubes. CO2 laser tube!
The composition of the laser tube is made of a hard glass, so it is a fragile and fragile material. In order to understand the CO2 laser tube, you must first understand the structure of the laser tube. For example, this CO2 laser uses a layer sleeve structure, and the innermost layer is a layer of discharge tube. However, the diameter of the CO2 laser discharge tube is thicker than the laser tube itself. The thickness of the discharge tube is proportional to the diffraction reaction caused by the size of the light spot, and the length of the tube is proportional to the output power of the discharge tube.
During the operation of the laser cutting machine, the laser tube will generate a lot of heat, which will affect the normal operation of the cutting machine. Therefore, a special area water cooler is required to cool the laser tube to ensure the normal operation of the laser cutting machine under constant temperature. CW-6200 is enough for 200W laser, with cooling capacity of 5.5KW; CW-7800 should be selected for 650W laser, and the cooling capacity can reach 23KW.
