2. Warnings & Safety Information
Adherence to these safety guidelines is crucial to prevent injury, equipment damage, and ensure optimal performance.
Fire and Burn Hazard
- High temperatures generated during processing may ignite the workpiece, smoke, or surrounding materials.
- The processing area must be kept clear of flammable substances and equipped with fire extinguishing equipment.
- After processing, the workpiece and machine components (e.g., spindle, laser head) may remain hot for an extended period; verify full cooling before handling.
Mechanical Injury Hazard
- High-speed rotating spindles, moving gantries, belts, and lead screws pose serious risks of crushing, cutting, or entanglement injuries.
- Before performing any installation, commissioning, cleaning, or maintenance operation, disconnect the machine from the main power supply.
Electrical Hazard
- High-voltage circuits are present internally. Unauthorized personnel must not open the electrical control cabinet.
- All electrical connections must comply with local regulations and be performed by qualified electricians.
Hazardous Substances and Fumes
- Processing certain materials (e.g., plastics, composites, coated metals) may generate toxic, carcinogenic, or irritating fumes and dust.
- Use only in environments equipped with an effective Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV) system.
