Surrounding laser cutting machines are the mainstream models on the current market, with a fully enclosed design. What are its advantages? Let's take a look
Prevent laser eye injury
In the international classification of lasers, lasers that can be used for cutting are generally classified as Level 3 or Level 4 lasers. Not only is direct viewing prohibited, but the power of their scattered light cannot be underestimated. When operating a laser cutting machine, novices generally prefer to stare at the cutting head, which can cause damage to the eyes and produce a tingling sensation over time. In addition, laser monochromaticity is good, and the color difference in the fundus is small. Extremely low laser energy irradiation can cause damage to the cornea or retina.
The laser cutting machine with an enclosed structure can maximally isolate the laser from the operator. After adjusting various parameters and cutting the sample to meet the standard, the side sliding door of the cutting machine can be closed for fully closed cutting to avoid laser damage to the human body.
Prevent injury from smoke and dust
Laser cutting is a thermal cutting process that produces a large amount of smoke and dust. Although laser cutting machines are generally equipped with dust extraction devices, some smoke and dust inevitably escape, causing pollution to the working environment.
The enclosed laser cutting machine adopts a closed structure, and the smoke and dust generated during cutting are internally filtered, making the escaping smoke and dust minimal or even negligible.
Prevention of mechanical injury
Although laser cutting machines use lasers instead of blades as processing tools, the probability of mechanical injury has been greatly reduced, but there is still no 100% guarantee that accidents will not occur. The surrounding laser cutting machine completely isolates the processing structure, processing materials, conductive devices, etc. from the operator, minimizing the risk of accidents.
Even with many advantages, when operating a surround laser cutting machine, it is necessary to strictly comply with various specifications, such as wearing goggles, dust masks, gloves, and so on.
