Core Storage Principles: Cut off power and drain liquid, seal for dust prevention, store at constant temperature and dry conditions, and perform regular equipment activation. Strictly prevent moisture-induced corrosion and parameter loss.
1. Key Pre-storage Treatment Procedures
Complete Power Cut-off and Liquid Draining: Turn off the main power supply, drain all water from the water cooling system, and fill the system with anti-rust fluid (mandatory for long-term shutdowns) to prevent cracking or rusting of laser tubes and pipelines caused by freezing and corrosion.
Cleaning and Inspection: Remove dust from optical lenses, guide rails and electrical cabinets; fasten all circuit connectors and check for oxidation and loose connections.
Parameter Backup and Battery Protection: Ensure sufficient power of the control system backup battery. Back up processing parameters and zero-point coordinates in advance when necessary to avoid data loss after power failure.
Overall Sealing and Protection: Close all access doors, cover the entire machine with a thick dust-proof and moisture-proof cover, and seal all gaps with adhesive tape to isolate moisture and prevent pest intrusion.
2. Storage Environment and Management Requirements
Environmental Standards: Store the machine indoors in a dry (relative humidity < 60%), stable and well-ventilated area free of corrosive gases. Keep the equipment away from doors, windows, water sources and areas with drastic temperature fluctuations. Wet ground and water accumulation are strictly prohibited.
Damage Prevention Measures: Clear all sundries around the equipment to avoid extrusion by heavy objects and accidental collision. Conduct regular pest control to prevent cables from being gnawed by insects and rodents.
Regular Inspection and Activation: When the glass laser sandblasting machine is kept idle for a long time, inspect the integrity of the dust cover and the corrosion condition of the machine body every month. It is recommended to power on the machine for a short no-load operation every 1 to 2 months. The slight heat generated during operation can dispel internal moisture and reactivate lubricating grease.
3. Special Precautions
Laser Tube Protection: For glass laser sandblasting machine fitted with glass laser tubes, ensure no stagnant water remains inside the tubes to avoid scale buildup from long-term static settling or tube cracking caused by freezing at low temperatures.
Optical Components: Clean and dry the lenses independently, then cover them with protective films to avoid dust adhesion, which may affect the processing accuracy of subsequent operations.
Sandblasting Components: Disconnect the sandblasting pipelines and blow off residual abrasives to prevent pipeline blockage and moisture-induced abrasive caking.
