Copy of Laser Preventative Maintenance at Mac-Tech

At Mac-Tech, we understand how critical it is to keep your laser cutting equipment running at peak performance. With over 40 years of experience serving the metal fabrication industry nationwide, our preventative maintenance services are designed to extend the life of your machines and minimize costly downtime. Here’s what our Laser PM service includes and why it’s essential:

Chiller Water and Water Filter Replacement

Regular replacement prevents buildup in the cutting head, which can cause early failures, ensuring your system operates smoothly.

N2 and O2 Filter Replacement

These gases play a vital role in cooling and assisting with cutting. Contaminated gases can damage the cutting head, leading to premature equipment failure. We ensure your gas filters are clean and functioning correctly.

Axis Greasing (X, Y, Z)

Maintaining clean grease in the moving axes prevents damage to linear bearings, rack and pinion systems, magnetic motors, and spindles—avoiding costly repairs and ensuring smooth operation.

Power Source Evaluation

We check the “called for” and “actual” power levels, ensuring the power source is functioning as expected. If adjustments are needed, we’ll report back to the manufacturer for corrective action.

Air Dryer System Rebuild

By rebuilding the air dryer, we eliminate water from the air lines, preventing moisture from damaging sensitive components.

Machine Leveling

We ensure your machine remains level to avoid failures caused by settling, keeping your cutting operations precise and reliable.

Automatic Grease Stations

Our team inspects the automatic grease stations, verifying that all lines are connected and leak-free to avoid failures in lubrication.

Cutting Head Inspection

We thoroughly inspect the cutting head to ensure it’s in optimal condition for performance and longevity.

Parameter Optimization

Our technicians can assist in modifying parameters for any materials you want to optimize, ensuring you get the best results from your machine.

Overall Machine Cleanliness

We clean and inspect your machine to prevent contaminants from entering the cutting head, which can lead to malfunctions.

Interchange Table Maintenance

We adjust chain tension, check proximity sensors, inspect wheels, and ensure table rails are level to avoid derailments and keep your interchange table running smoothly.

Consumable Parts Check

We evaluate consumable parts like nozzle cleaners and changers to ensure they are operational and replaced at the appropriate intervals.

Additional Components

We also inspect any automation and electrical components in the machine cabinets, recommend wear parts replacements, and ensure all repairs are documented. Each machine has unique needs, and we tailor our checks accordingly.
