Is laser cutting machine operation dangerous?

Generally speaking, there is no harm to the body. (It is absolutely impossible to say that there is no harm, there is a possibility of harm in any job)

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 they look at the sparks generated by cutting for a long time, it can harm their eyes and sting them. Generally speaking, some laser cutting machine manufacturers will equip corresponding glasses to protect their eyes. The laser cutting machine is very intelligent and can be operated by no one, without the need to stare at the cutting head.

Points to note:

1) Laser is blind and cannot be seen with 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) I don't know what materials the landlord processes. If it is carbon steel or stainless steel, the problem is not significant. 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, there is severe reflection when cutting aluminum plates. The cutting head should have a protective device, 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.
