mechanism to ensure the employee of the user meet the safety requirements and
strengthen their safety awareness.
2.5 Safe Operation of Equipment
2.5.1 Requirements for Laser Welding Operation Environment
To ensure the safety of laser welding operation, appropriate external warnings should be
used, including but not limited to laser safety signs, interlocking devices and other hazard
prevention measures. The interaction between the laser and the working surface will
produce gas, sparks and debris due to high temperature, which may pose additional safety
hazards. The corresponding operators shall undergo proper examination and training, and
be familiar with and master the conventional safety specifications for laser operation.
We recommend that your operation of the laser welding equipment shall meet the following
requirements to extend its service life:
1. Each SLR series handheld laser welder integrates a cooling system, and the heat is
discharged from the bottom and top space. Do not block the bottom and top space.
Otherwise the output performance of the laser system may be affected due to the
decline of heat dissipation performance;
2. Use and store the equipment under the specified ambient temperature and humidity
conditions to avoid equipment damage; If the equipment shuts down due to
overheating, please stop using it and ask for help.
Note: Please operate the equipment carefully to avoid accidental damage to the equipment.
2.5.2 Safety Instructions for Operation Area
1. The intensity of output laser of the SLR series handheld laser welders is enough to burn
skin, clothing and paint, and ignite volatile substances, such as alcohol, gasoline, ether,
etc. Therefore, during operation and use, it is prohibited to stack items in the operation
and processing area and the flammables shall be isolated from the laser operation and
processing area.
2. During laser welding, a small amount of harmful dust and toxic gas will be generated.
The workplace should be properly equipped with ventilation and dust collection devices,
such as exhaust fans and industrial vacuum cleaners. Employees should wear
appropriate masks for protection.
