You wouldn’t drive your high-performance car thousands of miles without scheduled maintenance and checking. Yet many industrial laser owners do just that: Put off regular laser service or maintenance visits until something breaks. They claim they “forget”, or it’s “something we’ll get around to.” But they don’t. And repairing CO2 laser systems are much more costly and time intensive than regular laser maintenance.
LMG Laser Maintenance Visit Packages
We at LMG would rather maintain your laser systems, not repair or replace them. That’s why we offer scheduled laser maintenance visit packages. Pricing for these packages varies based on the type of machines you have, and the amount of hours you run your machine.
Rules of Thumb for Laser Maintenance Visits
Just like high-performance vehicles, CO2 laser systems best operate if they are serviced every 800 to 1,000 hours. If you are like most companies, you’ll run your industrial laser systems between 40 and 60 hours a week. In this scenario, LMG recommends scheduling us for a laser maintenance visit every three months. If you operate more than one system at your facility, it’s beneficial to schedule all the CO2 laser systems for maintenance at the same time. This video with LMG owner Scott Kiser gives more detail.
What Happens During LMG’s Maintenance Visits?
Your CO2 laser is a highly complex system, but LMG’s experts — with decades of experience — have laser maintenance visits down to an exact science and process. We will:
- Change the oil
- Check fluid levels
- Perform compression tests (check for gas leaks)
- Check hoses (did you know: Hoses often change color just before they fail!)
- Check all moveable parts
- Run diagnostic tests
- Clean your laser system
- Adjust and realign Rofin Sinar resonators
- Check critical alignment points
… and more!
If there are potential trouble spots, if your laser system needs consumable parts, or if a standard part is wearing down, LMG will give you a fast and fair estimate. Often, these types of repairs can be done during the same visit, thus preventing dangerous laser failure situations, expensive part replacement, and costly down time.
With nearly 3 decades of industrial laser experience, LMG’s motto is simple:
“The Performance of Your Laser System is a Reflection of the Work We Do!“
