1. Application of laser pipe cutting machines in the manufacture of air conditioning pipelines

The refrigeration system of smart air conditioners relies on complex pipeline designs, which are usually made of copper or aluminum pipes and require high-precision cutting to ensure sealing and performance. Laser pipe cutting machines are crucial in this link.


1.1 High-precision cutting

The laser pipe cutting machine uses a high-energy laser beam to cut the pipe, and the cut is smooth and burr-free to ensure the sealing of the pipe connection. For example, when cutting copper pipes, the laser pipe cutting machine can achieve an accuracy of ±0.1mm, meeting the strict requirements of the air conditioning refrigeration system for the pipe size.

 

1.2 Complex shape processing

Air conditioning pipeline design often includes complex shapes such as elbows and tees. Laser pipe cutting machines can achieve a variety of complex cutting through programming, such as beveling and opening holes, which significantly improves production efficiency.

 

1.3 Automated production

The laser pipe cutting machine is equipped with an automatic loading and unloading system to achieve continuous production, reduce manual intervention, improve production efficiency and reduce error rates.

 

2. Application of laser plate cutting machines in shell and structural parts manufacturing

The shell and internal structural parts of smart air conditioners are usually made of metal sheets. Laser plate cutting machines have become the core equipment for the manufacturing of these parts with their high precision and high efficiency.

 

1.1 Shell cutting

The shell of the air conditioner needs to be beautiful and durable. The laser plate cutting machine can achieve fine cutting on materials such as stainless steel and aluminum alloy to ensure flawless appearance. For example, the laser plate cutting machine can cut heat dissipation holes, mounting holes, etc. on the shell to meet the dual needs of function and beauty.

 

1.2 Internal structural parts processing

The laser plate cutting machine ensures that the size and shape of the internal structural parts of the air conditioner fully meet the design requirements through high-precision cutting, thereby ensuring the overall performance of the air conditioner.

 

1.3 Efficient production

Laser plate cutting machines support mass production, and can quickly complete large-volume plate cutting through automated systems, significantly shortening production cycles.

 

3. Application of pipe bending machines in air conditioning pipe forming

Air conditioning pipes need to be bent and formed according to the design, and pipe bending machines play an important role in this process.

 

3.1 Precise bending

The pipe bending machine achieves precise bending through a numerical control system to ensure that the pipe angle and radius meet the design requirements. For example, when manufacturing the connecting pipes of the air conditioning evaporator and condenser, the pipe bending machine can achieve complex three-dimensional bending to ensure that the pipe layout is compact and efficient.

 

3.2 Applicable to a variety of materials

The pipe bending machine is suitable for a variety of materials such as copper pipes and aluminum pipes to meet the diverse needs of air conditioning pipe manufacturing.

 

3.3 Efficient forming

The pipe bending machine is equipped with automatic feeding and clamping devices to achieve continuous bending operations and greatly improve production efficiency.
