What brand of engraving machine should I buy?

No matter what brand of engraving machine, the following points must be considered when purchasing:

1, define the nature of the work.

In order to cope with various processing tasks, manufacturers divide computer engraving machines into various specifications and models. For example, buying a carpenter's engraving machine to engrave a double-color board or buying a large engraving machine to engrave a seal will cause great waste and not get good results. Similarly, you should buy a advertising engraving machine to do wood carving, because if the power is too small, you may not be competent. So before you buy a machine, you must fully explain to the sales staff what you want to do, including the size, material, thickness and weight of the material, the final carving effect and requirements, and so on.

2, choose the right model

There are two main reasons why manufacturers don't define models:

(1), the size of the carved workpiece, such as the letter CX series 8080, indicates that the maximum carving stroke is 800mm long, 800mm wide and 120mm high. So when you choose the engraving and milling machine, it depends on whether your workpiece is within this processing range. If the workpiece is larger than this stroke, it is necessary to choose a large model. Of course, it is also possible to process the workpiece in sections, so that the integrity is poor, there may be traces, and positioning and alignment are more troublesome.

(2) The main accessories are different. The large machine tool has good bearing capacity (the bed is heavier), large cutting capacity (high spindle and motor power) and fast machining speed (high spindle and motor power), so the machining accuracy is almost worse than that of the large machine tool. Because the lathe bed is enlarged, the guide rail and the lead screw will be lengthened, and the overall accumulated error of the whole machine tool will be increased, otherwise the bearing capacity, cutting capacity and machining speed of the small machine tool will be very poor. If you make mahogany crafts, choose 8080 double-headed small model. For example, large and medium-sized furniture is more suitable.

3. Trial carving before purchase

Before buying a engraving machine, in order to ensure your investment recovery, you should get to know the customers of the manufacturer, see what they can process, the processing accuracy and the processing speed, and try to engrave what you do most often when necessary. At the same time, calculate the work efficiency, observe the effect, fully test the performance of the machine, and truly know fairly well.

Step 4 sign a contract

After deciding to buy, the first thing to do is to sign a contract with the seller. The contract should indicate the purchase model, configuration, price, delivery time and delivery method, training method, warranty terms, payment method and other elements. After signing the contract, it is generally necessary to pay a certain deposit according to the contract.

5. Possible problems in use and after-sales service guarantee

(1). operational environment

Engraving machine is a high-tech electromechanical integration equipment, which has certain requirements for working environment.

1. Avoid high voltage, strong magnetism and other equipment that seriously affect the signal transmission of engraving machine. Such as: welding machine, transmission tower, etc.

2. Use three-core power supply to ensure good grounding of engraving machine and reduce interference.

3. The voltage should be stable to avoid ups and downs, and it is best to use a voltage regulator.

4. The machine should not work in the environment of strong acid and alkali for a long time.

(2). Maintenance and maintenance

Engraving machines are mostly used in processing business, which produces more dust. Pay attention to keep the screw rod, guide rail and other parts clean and lubricated during use, clean the dust in time and refuel the transmission parts; Operators should clean and refuel in time, and it is forbidden to plug in or plug in with electricity.

(3). Software use problem

There are many engraving software available for engraving machine. Such as: Wen Tai Sculpture, Casmate-pro, Caxa, Mastercam, Artcam, Smartcam, Type3, etc. To meet your carving requirements, please choose the correct operating software.

(4). Deal with problems

1. Rationality of processing technology

In addition to the engraving machine to ensure processing accuracy, reasonable processing technology is also very important. In order to ensure the accuracy of processing, please pay attention to the rationality of processing technology.

2. Tool use

The machining accuracy is influenced by the manufacturing process and the accuracy of the tool itself. Therefore, when machining, please choose the appropriate tool.

3. Operators

The operator's proficiency and sense of responsibility also have a great influence on the machining accuracy.

In addition to the above preparations, the choice of engraving machine manufacturers is also very important. Try to avoid choosing low-priced labeling machines with poor machine performance and quality and after-sales service. Good after-sales service is also the key link that engraving machine manufacturers are improving!
