The present application relates to the technical field of engraving and cutting, and in particular to a laser and cutter machining apparatus.
A laser and cutter machining apparatus uses laser as a processing medium to perform machining. Since the laser and cutter machining apparatus is not in direct contact with a workpiece, it is not affected by mechanical motion, and thus the surface of the workpiece is not easily deformed. When a user needs to machine workpieces to produce some complex handicrafts or other works, a conventional laser processing machine is generally required to be used in conjunction with a cutter processing machine. In the process of machining the workpiece by using the laser processing machines and the cutter processing machine, the user usually needs to separately operate the laser processing machine and the cutter processing machine to move up and down to machine the workpiece.
In order to solve the above problems, a laser and cutter machining apparatus is provided according to the present application, which can improve machining accuracy.
A laser and cutter machining apparatus is provided according to the present application, which includes a laser and cutter device. The laser and cutter device includes a housing, a guide plain shaft, and a machining mechanism. The guide plain shaft is arranged in the housing. The machining mechanism includes a laser case slidably connected to the guide plain shaft, a laser arranged in the laser case, and a cutter mechanism arranged in the laser case. The laser and the cutter mechanism are configured to move relative to the housing along the guide plain shaft with the laser case.

In the embodiment, the connecting hole 4111 penetrates through two opposite end faces of the connecting portion 411 in the third direction. In another embodiment, the connecting hole 4111 may only penetrate through an end face of the connecting portion 411 facing the laser case 51.
In the embodiment, the connecting portion 411 is arranged in the housing 41, and the laser case 51 may penetrate into the housing 41 along the guide plain shaft 42 inserted in the connecting portion 411. In this way, the laser case 51 can be accommodated in the housing 41, which reduces the overall size of the laser and cutter device 40 and improves space utilization.

The laser case 51 moves in the fourth direction until the reset member 53 cooperates with the reset sensor 462 to output a reset signal. The laser case 51 no longer moves in the fourth direction when the reset member 53 cooperates with the reset sensor 462 to output the reset signal. The external control center receives the reset signal through the first control board 461 and records current position information of the laser case 51 to determine an origin position of the laser and cutter device 40 in the third direction and the fourth direction. In this case, the external control center can output the corresponding first control signal based on the requirement of the user through precise algorithms, so as to control the movement distance of the laser case 51 in the third direction or the fourth direction relative to the housing 41, to ensure that the laser 52 and the cutter mechanism 55 can accurately move with the laser case 51 to the preset position relative to the housing 41, and thus the machining accuracy of the laser and cutter device 40 is improved.
