Why Choose Fiber Laser for Stainless Steel, Mild Steel and Aluminum, etc., ?
More companies than ever before are investing in fiber lasers. While the automotive industry was undoubtedly the early adopter, this relatively new solution is being snapped up across the board and when you consider the advantages, it’s easy to see why.
EXTRA SPEED
The sheer speed of fiber laser markers makes them the first choice for customers looking to increase efficiency. They’re the fastest laser marking technology at their wavelength, delivering marking times of less than 1 second for some applications. While older, more established laser technology is available-including diode-pumped solid-state (DPSS) lasers, lamp-pumped lasers, and carbon dioxide (CO2) lasers-none can beat a fiber laser for combined mark speed and quality.
This means fiber lasers can break new ground. For example, 1 of Laser Lines’ customers is an automotive component manufacturer that needs to mark serial codes exceptionally fast-in under half a second-which wouldn’t be possible with any other type of laser.
ENERGY EFFECIENCY
Despite being faster, fiber lasers are energy-efficient compared to the alternatives. Not only does this result in reduced power consumption, but it also helps make the system simpler, smaller, and more reliable.
Fiber laser technology uses basic air cooling rather than an additional chiller unit, which would be costly and cumbersome. With many businesses finding both cash and floor space in short supply, compact and efficient fiber laser marking solutions are proving to be the right fit.
LONG LIFE
The life expectancy of a fiber laser far exceeds that of other laser solutions. In fact, the diode module in a fiber laser typically last 3 times longer than other technologies. Most lasers have a life of around 30,000 hours, which typically equates to about 15 years’ use.
Fiber lasers have an expected life of around 100,000 hours, which means about 45 years’ use. Saying that, will companies still be using the same fiber laser in 45 years? I doubt it! Regardless, this option does deliver an impressive return on investment.
About us
A XIHU (WEST LAKE) DIS. FOR FINDING THE RIGHT LASER CUTTING MACHINE
For most manufacturers, buying an industrial laser cutting machine is a major investment. It’s not just the initial price you pay, but the fact that the purchase will have a great impact on the entire manufacturing process. If the wrong equipment is chosen, you have to live with the decision for quite a long time. It is not unusual to see manufacturers keep a laser for 7 to 10 years.
Do you know the best way to go about purchasing a laser cutting machine? Even if you currently own one, how long ago did you buy it, and what has changed since then?
This CZPT should help you in making a capital purchase decision that will drive your manufacturing operations to new heights.
What’s the Application?
Perhaps the real question is, “Should I even be buying a laser cutting machine?” For many reasons, investing in a different cutting system may make more sense for a company’s manufacturing activities. Investigating all available options can minimize any possible regrets in the future.
Do We Really Need to Invest in Laser Cutting?
A company that doesn’t have a laser cutting machine generally subcontracts the work to 1 or several job shops with that capability. This scenario doesn’t involve a lot of risk and can work if you have some flexibility with lead times.
But there will come that time when you have to ask yourself if it is time for the company to bring laser cutting in-house. This has to be considered even if the business relationship with the subcontractor is great.
How do you know if it is the right time to own a laser? Look at how much you are spending monthly for laser-cut parts. In the words of Henry Ford, “If you need a machine and don’t buy it, then you will ultimately find that you have paid for it and don’t have it.”
What Is the True Cost of Running the Equipment?
With such a large investment, a manufacturer needs to know at what level of efficiency the equipment is operating. You need to know more than just if the machine is running or not running. This is where equipment performance monitoring comes in.
It’s important for you to find out if software can measure the laser cutting machine’s overall equipment efficiency (OEE) in real time. If so, can the software be used for your other laser cutting machines, if you have them, so that you might discover “hidden capacity” where you thought there was none?
With the cost of about 1 percent of the equipment price, monitoring software can provide a 10 to 50 percent productivity gain with paybacks of less than 4 months.
What Can Be Done to Make the Purchasing Decision Easier?
Answering these questions and obtaining quotes based on the feedback can be used to narrow down the selection of the supplier of a laser cutting machine to 2 to 3 sources. From there you need to find the right model, ask the right questions during equipment demonstrations, and work toward an acceptable price. Remember, there are many important items to discuss during the final negotiation.
The purchase of such a machine can be an overwhelming task. That’s why it might make sense to join an industry association, such as the Fabricators & Manufacturers Association, to network with manufacturing peers to learn from them, or even seek out the assistance of someone that has been through or is familiar with this type of industrial equipment purchase. Such an effort likely would prove to be worthwhile.
How to Choose the Right Worm Shaft
You might be curious to know how to choose the right Worm Shaft. In this article, you will learn about worm modules with the same pitch diameter, Double-thread worm gears, and Self-locking worm drive. Once you have chosen the proper Worm Shaft, you will find it easier to use the equipment in your home. There are many advantages to selecting the right Worm Shaft. Read on to learn more.
Concave shape
The concave shape of a worm’s shaft is an important characteristic for the design of a worm gearing. Worm gearings can be found in a wide range of shapes, and the basic profile parameters are available in professional and firm literature. These parameters are used in geometry calculations, and a selection of the right worm gearing for a particular application can be based on these requirements.
The thread profile of a worm is defined by the tangent to the axis of its main cylinder. The teeth are shaped in a straight line with a slightly concave shape along the sides. It resembles a helical gear, and the profile of the worm itself is straight. This type of gearing is often used when the number of teeth is greater than a certain limit.
The geometry of a worm gear depends on the type and manufacturer. In the earliest days, worms were made similar to simple screw threads, and could be chased on a lathe. During this time, the worm was often made with straight-sided tools to produce threads in the acme plane. Later, grinding techniques improved the thread finish and reduced distortions resulting from hardening.
When a worm gearing has multiple teeth, the pitch angle is a key parameter. A greater pitch angle increases efficiency. If you want to increase the pitch angle without increasing the number of teeth, you can replace a worm pair with a different number of thread starts. The helix angle must increase while the center distance remains constant. A higher pitch angle, however, is almost never used for power transmissions.
The minimum number of gear teeth depends on the angle of pressure at zero gearing correction. The diameter of the worm is d1, and is based on a known module value, mx or mn. Generally, larger values of m are assigned to larger modules. And a smaller number of teeth is called a low pitch angle. In case of a low pitch angle, spiral gearing is used. The pitch angle of the worm gear is smaller than 10 degrees.
Multiple-thread worms
Multi-thread worms can be divided into sets of one, two, or 4 threads. The ratio is determined by the number of threads on each set and the number of teeth on the apparatus. The most common worm thread counts are 1,2,4, and 6. To find out how many threads you have, count the start and end of each thread and divide by two. Using this method, you will get the correct thread count every time.
The tangent plane of a worm’s pitch profile changes as the worm moves lengthwise along the thread. The lead angle is greatest at the throat, and decreases on both sides. The curvature radius r” varies proportionally with the worm’s radius, or pitch angle at the considered point. Hence, the worm leads angle, r, is increased with decreased inclination and decreases with increasing inclination.
Multi-thread worms are characterized by a constant leverage between the gear surface and the worm threads. The ratio of worm-tooth surfaces to the worm’s length varies, which enables the wormgear to be adjusted in the same direction. To optimize the gear contact between the worm and gear, the tangent relationship between the 2 surfaces is optimal.
The efficiency of worm gear drives is largely dependent on the helix angle of the worm. Multiple thread worms can improve the efficiency of the worm gear drive by as much as 25 to 50% compared to single-thread worms. Worm gears are made of bronze, which reduces friction and heat on the worm’s teeth. A specialized machine can cut the worm gears for maximum efficiency.
Double-thread worm gears
In many different applications, worm gears are used to drive a worm wheel. These gears are unique in that the worm cannot be reversed by the power applied to the worm wheel. Because of their self-locking properties, they can be used to prevent reversing motion, although this is not a dependable function. Applications for worm gears include hoisting equipment, elevators, chain blocks, fishing reels, and automotive power steering. Because of their compact size, these gears are often used in applications with limited space.
Worm sets typically exhibit more wear than other types of gears, and this means that they require more limited contact patterns in new parts. Worm wheel teeth are concave, making it difficult to measure tooth thickness with pins, balls, and gear tooth calipers. To measure tooth thickness, however, you can measure backlash, a measurement of the spacing between teeth in a gear. Backlash can vary from 1 worm gear to another, so it is important to check the backlash at several points. If the backlash is different in 2 places, this indicates that the teeth may have different spacing.
Single-thread worm gears provide high speed reduction but lower efficiency. A multi-thread worm gear can provide high efficiency and high speed, but this comes with a trade-off in terms of horsepower. However, there are many other applications for worm gears. In addition to heavy-duty applications, they are often used in light-duty gearboxes for a variety of functions. When used in conjunction with double-thread worms, they allow for a substantial speed reduction in 1 step.
Stainless-steel worm gears can be used in damp environments. The worm gear is not susceptible to rust and is ideal for wet and damp environments. The worm wheel’s smooth surfaces make cleaning them easy. However, they do require lubricants. The most common lubricant for worm gears is mineral oil. This lubricant is designed to protect the worm drive.
Self-locking worm drive
A self-locking worm drive prevents the platform from moving backward when the motor stops. A dynamic self-locking worm drive is also possible but does not include a holding brake. This type of self-locking worm drive is not susceptible to vibrations, but may rattle if released. In addition, it may require an additional brake to keep the platform from moving. A positive brake may be necessary for safety.
A self-locking worm drive does not allow for the interchangeability of the driven and driving gears. This is unlike spur gear trains that allow both to interchange positions. In a self-locking worm drive, the driving gear is always engaged and the driven gear remains stationary. The drive mechanism locks automatically when the worm is operated in the wrong manner. Several sources of information on self-locking worm gears include the Machinery’s Handbook.
A self-locking worm drive is not difficult to build and has a great mechanical advantage. In fact, the output of a self-locking worm drive cannot be backdriven by the input shaft. DIYers can build a self-locking worm drive by modifying threaded rods and off-the-shelf gears. However, it is easier to make a ratchet and pawl mechanism, and is significantly less expensive. However, it is important to understand that you can only drive 1 worm at a time.
Another advantage of a self-locking worm drive is the fact that it is not possible to interchange the input and output shafts. This is a major benefit of using such a mechanism, as you can achieve high gear reduction without increasing the size of the gear box. If you’re thinking about buying a self-locking worm gear for a specific application, consider the following tips to make the right choice.
An enveloping worm gear set is best for applications requiring high accuracy and efficiency, and minimum backlash. Its teeth are shaped differently, and the worm’s threads are modified to increase surface contact. They are more expensive to manufacture than their single-start counterparts, but this type is best for applications where accuracy is crucial. The worm drive is also a great option for heavy trucks because of their large size and high-torque capacity.
