Chapter 2 Safety Information

1 - Safety in the use of laser welding machines

The portable  air-cooled  laser  welder  is  a  hazardous,  invisible  laser  radiation Class 4 laser product. This product emits infrared laser radiation at a wavelength of 1070nm and the average power emitted from the welding head is greater than 100W, which can cause damage to the eyes and skin when exposed directly or indirectly to such light intensity. The infrared radiation is invisible and the laser beam can cause irreversible  damage  to  the  retina  or  cornea. Always  wear  appropriate  protective eyewear for near-infrared laser beams before operating your handheld laser welding machine.

(1)  For your safety and the safety of others, do not point the welding head at yourself or others;

(2)  Before using the handheld laser  welding machine,  it is necessary  to  wear appropriate near-infrared laser protective eyewear and high-temperature resistant gloves;

(3)  For  your  safety  and  the  safety  of others,  before  triggering  the  laser  must be clamped on the welding workpiece, it is strictly prohibited to be clamped on the workpiece in addition to other places, to avoid abnormal light leading to safety hazards;

(4)  The welding operation of the portable air-cooled laser welding machine needs to be carried out in an  independent space  with   laser  protection;  non-welding personnel and combustible and flammable materials should be kept away from the welding table for more than  10 meters when in use, and fire extinguishers should be placed near the welding area;

(5)  A face mask is required when welding highly reflective materials;

(6)  Ensure that the portable air-cooled laser welding machine grounding is normal,  otherwise it may cause the product shell charged, resulting in personal injury to  the operator; if the grounding is not operated in accordance with the requirements, it may cause the laser alarm, no light, laser instability and other hidden faults;

3 - Safety of welding features

1. Radiation damage

Visible  and  invisible  radiation  is  generated  during  the  welding  process.  The interaction between the high-power laser beam and the target material to be welded may generate a plasma that produces ultraviolet radiation and "blue light", which may result in conjunctivitis, photochemical damage to the retina or a sunburn-like reaction to the skin. Welders  exposed  to  invisible  UV  light  without proper protection  may suffer permanent eye damage.

2. Skin damage

Exposure to infrared and ultraviolet radiation during welding can harm the skin. Infrared and ultraviolet light can cause burns to the skin, increasing the welder's risk of skin cancer and accelerated signs of skin aging. Welding sparks can also cause burns. Laser material processing transfers a large amount of energy into the part. Even after the welding process is  complete,  parts  can  be  very  hot.  Ensure  that  proper personal protective equipment is used to prevent potential burns. Take precautions to prevent skin damage by wearing protective clothing such as fire-resistant gloves, hats, leather aprons  and  other  fire-resistant  clothing.  Sleeves  and  collars  should  be buttoned.

3.Fire hazard

If combustible or flammable materials are in close proximity to the welding area,  the heat and sparks generated during the welding process can cause a fire or explosion. Laser  welding  should  only be  performed  when  the  area  is  free of combustible  materials. Never weld containers that contain flammable or combustible materials. If the contents of containers are unknown, assume they are flammable or combustible.  Fire extinguishers should be located nearby, easily accessible, and have personnel  trained in their use.

4.The effects of smoke

Welding "fumes" can consist of very fine particles and gases. Welding fumes and gases come from a combination of the welding material or any filler material used, protective gases used, paints, coatings, chemical reactions and air pollutants. Welding fumes can adversely affect the lungs, heart, kidneys and central nervous system.

(1) Keep your head away from fumes when welding. Always weld in an adequately ventilated area to ensure safe breathing air.

(2) Use a fume exhaust system to remove vapors, particulates,  and hazardous debris from the welding process area.

(3) Respirators may also be required in confined spaces and other situations.

(4) Routine air monitoring should be conducted to determine the level of hazardous fumes in the welding area

5.Gas cylinder safety

Gas cylinders can explode if they are damaged or placed near the welding area. Protective gas cylinders should be placed where they will not be struck or damaged. Place them away from heat sources, sparks or flames. Cylinders must be stored in an upright position and secured to a fixed support. A working regulator suitable for the gas and pressure required is required. All hoses and fittings should also be suitable for the application and in good working order.

5 - General safety instructions

1.    Specular reflection

Portable air-cooled laser welding machine output port position may produce a secondary laser beam and radiate outward at multiple angles. This phenomenon of a diverging beam due to the reflection of the main beam of the portable air-cooled laser welding machine from a flat surface is known as specular reflection. Although the energy of the secondary laser beam is much less than that of the primary laser beam, this intensity can cause damage to, for example, human eyes, skin, or some material surfaces.

Warning:

◎ Since the laser radiation light is not visible, you must operate with extreme caution to avoid or minimize specular reflections.

Notice:

1.Within the recommended power range, the smaller the power, the brighter the weld seam. The higher the power, the more obvious the degree of oxidation on the surface of the weld   seam, and the greater the penetration depth

2. The swing width needs to consider the actual weld width and wire diameter 

3. The diameter of the welding wire needs to consider the actual weld width and stacking height

requirements

4.Welding speed is directly related to wire feeding speed

Notice:

1. It is recommended to use compressed air as the protective gas. The high pressure makes it easier to blow off welding slag

2. Ensure that all red light is emitted from the mouth of the copper nozzle to avoid burning it out

3. The cutting nozzle is perpendicular to the surface of the material, which will have a better cutting effect

4. Mark the surface of the material or use a backing to make the cutting path more accurate

5. It is recommended to set the maximum power to improve cutting efficiency

Notice:

1.When in cleaning mode, it is necessary to remove the stainless steel tube at the front of the gun head

2.It is necessary to clamp the safety clip onto the wire feed bracket of the gun head

3.The main function of this gun head is welding,and cleaning is an auxiliary function.If you  need to achieve better cleaning results,you can choose our company's dedicated laser cleaning machine
