Laser safety protection for 3D crystal laser engraving machine
Laser technology, a cutting-edge technology, has demonstrated extraordinary capabilities in both the military and commercial fields, especially its impressive destructive power in the military. However, when laser technology enters factories and homes, its potential dangers also cannot be ignored.
Hazards of lasers:
Eyes: Direct irradiation or reflection of lasers can seriously damage the retina and even cause blindness.
Skin: Direct exposure to lasers, especially high-power lasers, can cause burns or even burns. Long-term exposure to ultraviolet and infrared light may also accelerate skin aging, cause inflammation, and even increase the risk of skin cancer.
Safety band warning: Laser frequencies that are harmful to the human body are mainly concentrated in the range of 400nm to 1400nm and 180nm to 280nm. Most laser processing equipment on the market is within this band, so strict safety protection measures must be taken during operation.
Key points for safe operation of 3D crystal laser engraving machine:
Ø Close the machine door: When using green light source (532nm) to produce crystal inner carving crafts, be sure to ensure that the laser protective housing door is closed. If it cannot be closed due to operational needs, be sure to wear protective glasses that match the laser band.
Ø Choose the right protective glasses: It is very important to choose the right protective glasses according to the laser laser wavelength. Only the correctly matched glasses can effectively protect the eyes from harm.
Ø Avoid naked eye observation: It is strictly forbidden to directly observe the laser engraving process with the naked eye to avoid eye fatigue, dryness, and even permanent damage.
Ø Choose the right protective housing: The protective housing of the machine has different protection levels, and the materials include black acrylic glass and special protective glass. Choose the right protective housing according to the Laser wavelength and protection requirements to ensure that it can effectively block light leakage.
Summary:
When using a 3D crystal laser engraving machine, be sure to strictly abide by the safety operating procedures, wear appropriate protective equipment, and ensure that the protective shell is tightly closed without light leakage. Only in this way can we give full play to the advantages of laser technology, create more sophisticated workpieces and artworks, and avoid the potential hazards it brings.
