When to Use Laser Air Compressor？

Functions of Air Compressor in CO2 Laser Machines:

1. Cooling of the laser tube:
CO2 laser machines use a laser tube that creates the laser light. This laser tube generates a lot of heat during operation, which must be dissipated to avoid overheating. An air compressor can be used to create a cooling flow that cools the laser tube and maintains an optimal operating temperature.

2. Blowing out dirt and dust:
During the cutting or engraving process, dirt, dust and material residues are generated that could contaminate the laser lens. An air compressor is often used to create a jet of air that blows these debris away from the lens to ensure clear and sharp laser focusing.

3. Compressed air for supported cutting and engraving processes:
Some CO2 laser machines can work with compressed air as a supporting medium. When the laser beam hits the material to be processed, the compressed air is used to enhance the cutting or engraving processes. This can increase the speed and quality of editing.

4. Protective gas when cutting metals:
Some CO2 laser machines use the air compressor to provide shielding gas such as nitrogen or oxygen. This shielding gas is used when cutting metals to protect the cutting edge and prevent oxidation of the metal edges.
