Generally speaking, it is harmless. Laser cutting is more environmentally friendly than plasma cutting and flame cutting. When cutting with a plasma cutting machine, there is a large amount of dust, smoke, and strong light, which requires a matching dust removal device. The laser cutting machine has low dust, low light intensity, and low noise during cutting. More environmentally friendly. Of course, operators who only come into contact with laser cutting machines like to stare at the cutting head. If you look at the sparks generated by cutting for a long time, it can harm and sting the eyes. Generally speaking, some laser cutting machine manufacturers will equip corresponding glasses to protect their eyes. The laser cutting machine has a high degree of intelligence and can be operated unmanned without staring at the cutting head.

But there are several points to note:

1) Laser is invisible to light, and the laser beam cannot be seen by the naked eye. If opening the hood for maintenance, be sure to pay attention. Don't accidentally touch the path of light. Meeting is not fun.

2) The harmful elements (ZnSe) in the focusing lens of the laser cutting machine should not be frequently exposed to the lens. Discarded lenses should be treated with special care and should not be thrown around.

3) Look at the processed material. Carbon steel or stainless steel are not a problem. If aluminum alloy is processed in large quantities, the dust after cutting will be suspended in the air and harmful to human health after inhalation. In addition, when cutting aluminum plates, there is severe reflection, and the cutting head needs to be protected, otherwise it is prone to malfunctions. In short, the quality requirements of laser cutting machine operators are higher than those of flame cutting machine and plasma cutting machine operators, but as long as they learn, it will be easy.

Laser cutting machine processing, as a new processing method, has gradually been widely used in the leather, textile and clothing industries due to its advantages of accurate, fast, simple operation, and high degree of automation. Metal processing is also very common nowadays. Compared with traditional cutting methods, laser cutting machines not only have low prices and consumption, but also have good cutting effects, accuracy, and speed due to the lack of mechanical pressure on the workpiece during laser processing. They also have the characteristics of safe operation and simple maintenance. In recent years, laser cutting machines have developed rapidly and gradually replaced traditional processes.
