Safety with Laser Cleaning Equipment

Never forget you work with a dangerous Class 4 Laser Machine

LASER SAFETY – WE TAKE IT VERY SERIOUS

You too have to take it very serious !

Laser radiation of infrared fibre lasers can cause serious and lasting damage to the human eyes – so a handheld laser is not a toy. 

Simple precautions and our inherent safety design make this a safe solution that meets the requirements of globally active customers and their safety organizations.

Lasermach LASER-SWIPE© is a Class 4 laser system, requiring:

  • Personal protection (laser safety eyewear) 
  • Safety curtains to block operating area from unprotected bypassers
  • Laser safety officer (1 day training) 

Lasermach offers superior laser safety:

  • CE marking based on an in-depth risk analysis following Machinery Directive EC2006/42/EG.
  • a true CE design according to machinery directive EC2006/42/EG
  • Components with safety performance level D, including Safety PLC instead of custom control board
  • Interface for connection of external safety devices (E-Stop, interlock and laser warning light)

Laser protection class 4 applies to all our laser equipment when in operation.

However, in order to make them  safe to use, personal protective equipment must be used (laser safety glasses) and access to the surrounding area needs to be controlled by interlocks or other means.

Different measures are therefore required on the customer side to ensure laser safety, such as the appropriate training of employees, wearing special protective equipment and setting up a separate laser safety area.  Special signage is required and other procedures must be implemented to enforce the laser-controlled are
