Laser System Options
Laser Safety Enclosure
A fully enclosed work station that ensures compliance
with U.S. Federal laser regulations.
Fume Removal Up to three stages of
filtration are available, including:
- a poly prefilter
- a HEPA filter (99.97% efficient @ 0.3
microns)
- an activated carbon cell.
The first two filters remove particulates such as
dust, smoke & fumes. The activated carbon cell
controls odors. These filters are easily replaceable and
can be integrated into the Laser Safety Enclosure. They
are compatible with gas jet assisted laser cutting.
We use and recommend Fumex/Purex.
Nozzle for gas jet assisted laser
cutting. In some applications, nitrogen functions as an
inert gas blanket to prevent oxidation. In other
applications, oxygen is used to promote an exothermic
reaction, or compressed air is used to blow off dross.
Horizontal Laminar Flow This is
basically a HEPA filter setup to direct filtered air
from the rear of the laser towards the operator and over
the work station.
Motion Control Devices, generally a X-Y
stage of customized travel to fit your application.
Specifications of interest are accuracy, repeatability,
resolution, load, travel, speed, orthogonality, and
cable management.
Vibration Isolation This usually takes
the form of air-filled chambers.
Vision & Optics We use a closed
circuit TV for viewing the laser cutting. (Microscopes
are not used because of the eye hazard and laser
degradation.) Our viewing optics are coaxial and feature
a laser focusing lens. A built-in video camera allows
you to look through the laser focusing lens to get a
"bird's eye view" of the operation. Some form
of manual fine focus is always required---usually with
25 mm travel. If low magnification viewing and higher
magnification laser cutting are required, a manual
turret is added for operator convenience.
Laser Optics include turning mirrors,
telescopes, galvos, laser blocking shutters and focusing
lenses as needed.
Computer Interface: Fully integrated with no
need for your programmer to write any additional code.
