Laser alignment that takes only 10 minutes, 20% decreased energy consumption, control via mobile app, a need to be maintained 30 times less than before, and a fire protection Wattsan SAS system made by our engineers.

All of that is combined in our laser CO2 machines upgrade of a classical line, from Wattsan 6090 to 1610. Ease of use, CNC safety, and speed—these are the requirements from modern clients that our modernized equipment is ready to face. We’ve been updating all types of our equipment throughout the years, making overall more than 300 modernizations, but this time it’s a little bit different.

In this article, we will tell you in detail what exactly has changed and how you can benefit from this.

激光校准仅需10分钟，能耗同时降低20%，可通过手机应用程序控制，所需维护频率比以往减少30倍，并配备了由我们工程师自主研发的Wattsan SAS防火系统。

所有这些产品优势都汇聚于Wattsan经典系列（从Wattsan 6090到1610型号）的CO2激光设备并持续不断进行升级。易用性、CNC安全性和速度——不断生产完善现代化设备，从而致力于全方位满足客户需求。多年来，我们企业不间断对所有类型的设备去更新，累计完成超过300项设计改进，但此次升级确有不同。

济南瓦特尚（Wattsan)数控科技企业将详细为您介绍其产品用有哪些具体变化，以及您将如何从中受益。

Fire protection and safety

防火与安全保障

Video tutorials like “How to handle laser fire” or discussions like “My CO2 laser machine caught fire” on Reddit and other forums are just the tip of the iceberg. The problem goes deeper, and Wattsan took that dive to present a solution.

像“如何处理激光设备火灾”这类视频教程，或Reddit等论坛上“我的CO2激光机着火了”的讨论，都只是冰山一角。对于更深层次的问题，Wattsan深入探究并提出了下列有关的解决方案。

Our engineers created the Wattsan SAS, or Safety Assurance System. It includes:

● Wattsan FOX system. It monitors everything that's happening in the working area and, if even the smallest ignition appears, will let out a loud signalization that can be heard in any corner of the production.

● Anodized laser head. Helps to exclude the possibility of laser firing back, as well as protects the head from overheating or corrosion.

● The lid is made from tempered certificated glass, not plastic. Glass slows down the fire spread, unlike plastic, which would just start melting itself and emit harmful vapors.

● Also, enhanced airflow system: engineers constructed it to admit air faster, due to which the extraction system works more effectively.

● Special sealant that is placed between the lid and body. It contains gases and smoke inside.

● An indicator light on the upper panel of the machine will show whether something is wrong with the machine or whether it is working in a stable condition from afar.

With this system, you can be sure that your workshop or factory will stay safe and you will not appear in the news with a title “Local production caught fire.”

我们的工程师创建了瓦特尚SAS，即安全保证系统。它包括：

l Wattsan FOX系统：监控工作区域内发生的一切，即使出现最微小的火苗，也会发出响亮的警报，在生产车间的任何角落都能听到。

l 阳极氧化激光头：有助于排除激光回火的可能性，并保护激光头免于过热或腐蚀。

l 认证钢化玻璃盖板：盖板采用经过认证的钢化玻璃而非塑料制成。与会自行熔化并释放有害蒸气的塑料不同，玻璃能减缓火势蔓延。

l 增强的气流系统：工程师对其进行了改造，使空气进入更快，因此抽风系统工作效率更高。

l 专用密封剂：位于盖板和机身之间，能将烟气和烟雾密闭在内。

l 状态指示灯：机器上面板上的指示灯可从远处显示机器是否工作异常或处于稳定运行状态。

凭借这套系统，您可以确保您的车间或工厂的消防安全，防范“当地生产车间起火”等新闻。

What changed in the construction of CO2 laser machinesCO2

激光设备结构的变化

Laser system激光系统

Firstly, there are new mounts for the tube and mirrors. With them you can now replace the tube in just 3 minutes and complete the alignment in less than 10 minutes.

Secondly, a beam combiner was installed on the first mirror. It creates a red dot that shows the positioning of the working beam.

Thirdly, the laser head is now adjustable by the Z-axis, which makes focusing and preparations for cutting and engraving materials with different thicknesses way easier.

首先，安装新的激光管和镜片支架。您现在可以仅在3分钟内更换激光管，并在10分钟内完成光路校准。

其次，在第一反射镜上安装了光束合成器。它会产生一个红点，显示工作光束的定位。

第三，激光头现在可沿Z轴调节，这使得为不同厚度的材料进行聚焦以及切割和雕刻准备工作变得更加轻松。

High-voltage unit of 4th Generation第四代高压单元

A new HVU unit provides more stable work of the laser tube, extending its service life by up to 35%, as we tested. It also reduces energy consumption by 20% while maintaining power.

Additionally, it has a new potentiometer with a digital milliammeter. Unlike the outdated analog version with the pointer, this one allows adjusting power with an accuracy of 0.001 A. Thus, cutting and engraving of sensible materials, for example, jean cloth, will be easier and risk-free.

新的高压单元为激光管提供更稳定的工作环境，根据我们的测试，可将其使用寿命延长高达35%。同时，它在保持功率的前提下降低了20%的能耗。

此外，它配备了带数字毫安表的新电位器。与过时的指针式模拟版本不同，这款电位器允许以0.001 A的精度调节功率。因此，切割和雕刻敏感材料（例如牛仔布）将更容易且无风险。

Updates to the movement system运动系统的更新

Previously, CO2 laser cutters had an open-type gantry. Now, it’s closed; belts and guides are hidden inside the housing. That protects all components from dirt and carbon deposits and consequently increases their service life and decreases the time and amount of needed maintenance checks.

Two-phase stepper motors are also changed for the three-phase ones. The new motors with smaller steps make movements smoother and improve engraving quality. Their speed, by the way, is up to 500 mm/sec.

The gearbox is now with reinforced mountings. It has a ⅓ ratio, which provides micro-division of the step. That three times reduces the loads implemented on the motors and increases the positioning accuracy even when processing complicated layouts.

此前，CO2激光切割机采用开放式龙门结构。现在，它改为封闭式；皮带和导轨隐藏在壳体内部。这保护了所有组件免受污物和积碳的影响，从而延长了其使用寿命，并减少了所需维护检查的时间和频次。

两相步进电机也更换为三相步进电机。新电机步距更小，使运行更平稳，并提高了雕刻质量。其速度最高可达500毫米/秒。

变速箱现在采用加强型支架固定，减速比为1/3，实现了步距的微细分。这将电机上的负载减少了三倍，即使在处理复杂图形时也能提高定位精度。

Ruida control system睿达控制系统

All of the updated machines have a Ruida controller RDC8445S. This is the latest model from the company, and it has everything to help your production take a step towards the IoT (Internet of Things).

● The controller has a built-in Wi-Fi module to create its own network.

● Now, you can monitor everything and adjust settings remotely. It’s possible to do via computer or even phone.

● Sharing and exchanging files is three times faster than prior controller models.

● Memory was increased from 128 Mb to 1 Gb.

● You can control several pieces of equipment, like laser CO2 machines and markers, from one program, optimizing production.

We have a separate video about this controller where we go through all of the details and show it in action.

所有升级后的设备均配备瑞达RDC8445S控制器。这是该公司的最新模型，具备一切功能，帮助您的生产迈向物联网时代。

l 控制器内置Wi-Fi模块，可创建自身网络。

l 现在，您可以远程监控一切并调整设置。可以通过计算机甚至手机完成。

l 文件共享和传输速度比之前的控制器增速至3倍。

l 内存从128 MB增加到1 GB。

l 您可以从一个程序控制多台设备，如CO2激光机和打标机，从而优化生产。

我们有关于该控制器的单独视频，详细介绍了所有细节并展示了实际操作。

Design changes 设计变更

We also changed the appearance of machines to make them more modern and ergonomic. For that:

● The corners were rounded.

● Turn-on and turn-off buttons were replaced for more convenient and durable ones. Also, buttons for a lifting table are now from tenacious alloy and are recessed in the body. No more accidental presses!

● The handle is bigger now and provides a comfortable grip. By the way, it is mounted inside the lid when the machine is shipped to avoid any damage.

We have already started the production of these machines and sent some of them to our dealers. The renewed series of classical CO2 laser equipment is available for purchase.

我们还改变了设备的外观，使其更具现代感和符合人体工程学。为此：

l 边角采用了圆角设计。

l 开/关按钮更换为更便捷、更耐用的型号。此外，升降台按钮现在由坚韧合金制成，并凹陷于机身内，杜绝误触！

l 手柄更大，提供舒适握感。另外，设备发货时手柄安装在盖板内部，以避免任何损坏。

l 我们已经开始生产这些设备，并将部分产品发送给我们的经销商。焕新升级的经典CO2激光设备系列现已可供购买。
