Many people may not know the purpose of laser tool alignment. Today, Xiaobian takes you to have a brief understanding. And give you a brief introduction of the wavelength band of the laser inside.

The laser tool alignment instrument is to help the machine tool to confirm the parameters such as the position, length and diameter of the tool, so as not to make any mistakes when processing.

In fact, most manufacturers will choose 650nm or 660nm red laser as the laser band in the laser tool alignment instrument, because of its good visibility, convenient debugging and relatively low cost. You can tell where the line is at first sight. In addition, the stability of red laser in this short-distance accurate detection scene is also good.

Some high-end tool alignment instruments will use 780nm or 808nm near infrared, which is mainly due to its better anti-interference ability. When there is coolant, dust and oil mist in the processing site, near infrared is not so easily affected, especially when the response received by photoelectric is more stable. Others will use 980nm or 1310nm, but mainly to enhance the reliability of the system in harsh environment, and the cost is higher than that of red light, which is generally not used by small factories.

What I have introduced to you above is the use of laser tool setting instrument. I hope you will have a clear understanding after reading it.
