The method of laser engraving type wheel and device
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of manufacturing technology of laser engraving type wheel, especially a kind of preparation method and device thereof with the laser engraving type wheel.
Background technology
Type wheel is the main tool that is used in electric wire surface printing product sign, can be used for the printing of drug capsules surface sign equally.Traditional type wheel manufacture craft is the mask exposure etch, the disadvantage of this method be chemical reagent such as the photosensitive material that uses in the manufacturing process, corrosive agent can to environment pollute and also fabrication cycle long.
At present, a kind of laser type wheel engraving machine product is arranged on the market, use the two-dimension optical scanning galvanometer as the deflector of laser beam, the method for driven by motor type wheel rotation.As Chinese invention patent application number CN200410021754.1, applying date 2004.01.18, open day 2004.12.29, the method of a kind of Laser Marker of Cambered Surface and processing type wheel thereof is disclosed, the motor of this machine and chuck are installed on the two-dimentional work bench, and two-dimentional work bench makes laser beam focus on the workpiece machined surface; Two-dimensional scan galvanometer system directions X is parallel with the chuck rotating shaft; Workpiece spindle is consistent with chuck axis, and the laser emergent shaft is vertical with the bus that surface of the work intersects with it.Computer is connected with the 2-D vibration mirror system with driver.When using this machine: make various image, text and data files and storage on computers, start the marking program, computer control driver, motor rotation and pause; The two-dimensional scan galvanometer system is using laser engraving on the lettering wheel blank in required picture and text dot matrix under the control of computer marking data file.
This method uses optical scan vibration lens to make laser behind character of engraving on the type wheel surface, and the driven by motor type wheel turns over an angle, need wait for a period of time, and carves another character again after stablizing, and goes round and begins again.Owing to breath motion between the restriction that is subjected to the frequency response of scanning galvanometer, driven by motor type wheel, can cause the appearance of oversize unfavorable factor of process-cycle, directly have influence on working (machining) efficiency.
Summary of the invention
The present invention will overcome weak point and the defective that the preparation method of existing laser engraving type wheel and device exist, and providing a kind of can shorten the process-cycle, again the method and the device of the laser engraving type wheel that can not pollute environment.
Method of the present invention is achieved in that
1. on the main control computer, set and import main contral parameter and open the font file that to carve;
2. main control computer sends pulse train, carries out bit comparison mutually with the angle position pulse that the rotary encoder on the main shaft is exported, and the rotating speed of control spindle motor makes the type wheel that is installed on the main shaft at the uniform velocity rotate;
3. main control computer control straight-line feed device drive type wheel and laser beam produce relative displacement slowly; Make laser beam form screw type scanning track at the periphery of type wheel, when main shaft rotated a week, its shift length equaled the equivalent of a pixel of desire engraving font;
The font encoding signal that produces of main control computer with produce by rotary encoder that angle position signal is synchronous accurately, control laser generator outgoing laser beam is carved at the periphery of type wheel.
Apparatus of the present invention comprise at the uniform velocity whirligig of type wheel, laser generator and laser beam automatic focusing control device, main control computer and motor driver.
Wherein, type wheel at the uniform velocity whirligig by bearing housing, type wheel, spindle drive motor, encoder support, rotary encoder is formed, on the feeding planker of straight-line feed device, be installed with bearing housing and encoder support, the defeated main shaft of bearing housing is parallel with the direction of motion of straight-line feed device, between bearing housing and the encoder support spindle drive motor of fixedlying connected with bearing housing is installed, be fixedly connected with type wheel on the output main shaft of bearing housing, the rear output shaft of spindle drive motor is connected with rotary encoder on being fixed on the encoder support;
Laser beam automatic focusing control device is by drive motors, focusing objective len, the straight-line feed device constitutes, straight-line feed device upper end is installed with drive motors, be fixedly connected with focusing objective len on the vertical moving carriage of straight-line feed device, vertical through the laser beam of focusing control device output with the periphery of type wheel;
The control signal output of main control computer is connected with the motor driver input with laser generator respectively, the motor driver output connects spindle drive motor respectively, straight-line feed drive motors and drive motors, the signal input part of main control computer connects rotary encoder, be used for font encoding signal that the main control computer produces and produce by rotary encoder that angle position signal is synchronous accurately, remove to control the laser generator outgoing laser beam.
The present invention compares with present type wheel preparation method has following feature: use focussed laser beam to carve at the type wheel cylindrical surface of at the uniform velocity rotation; When type wheel at the uniform velocity turns over a circle, the straight-line feed device is under the control of main control computer, make and carve the distance of carving the diameter of pixel that relatively moves uniformly between laser beam and the type wheel, laser beam forms spiral yarn shaped track while scan on the type wheel periphery like this; Total movement control realizes high accuracy type wheel engraving all by computer controlled automatic, precise closed-loop SERVO CONTROL.
Advantage of the present invention is:
1. adopt the autotracking focusing technology, make focusing objective len follow the periphery motion of type wheel, keep focal length constant, can overcome since main shaft when rotated circular runout and because caused by factors such as type wheel mismachining tolerance are lost burnt problem.Guarantee that laser beam correctly focuses on the periphery of type wheel.
2. because in whole engraving process, breath motion and moving back and forth between not having is uniform circular motion or linear uniform motion all.Therefore, finally can reach and carve out meticulous font at high speed at the periphery of type wheel.For example: the meticulous font of engraving per inch 800 points (0.03175 millimeter/point), main shaft at the uniform velocity rotates with the speed that change each second 1, and the relative displacement speed of type wheel and laser beam is 0.03175 mm/second simultaneously.Font height of engraving is that 3.175 millimeters type wheel only needed for 100 seconds (being less than 2 minutes) like this.
