Handheld Laser Welding Machine: Essential No-Go Zones and Safety Protocols for Operators

What should you never do when using the handheld welding machine? Do you know what they are? During the laser welding process, improper operation may bring serious safety hazards, which not only endangers the safety of the operator, but also may damage the equipment and even cause accidents. Next, we will reveal these potential dangerous behaviors to you, help you avoid common safety hazards, and ensure safety and smoothness during the operation.

Direct viewing of laser: Never look directly at the laser or its reflected light. Laser beams are extremely harmful to the eyes and may cause permanent vision damage or even blindness.

Not wearing protective equipment:  When operating a laser welding machine, you must wear appropriate protective equipment, such as protective glasses and protective clothing. These equipment can effectively prevent laser damage to the skin and eyes.

Private disassembly of equipment: Without professional training and authorization, you must not disassemble, install or modify the laser welding machine privately. This may lead to serious consequences such as equipment failure, electric shock or fire.

Ignoring the cooling system: Laser welding machines usually require a cooling system to maintain normal operating temperature. Before starting the equipment, make sure that the cooling system (such as water cooling or air cooling) is turned on and working properly.

Contact with high-voltage components: Do not touch any high-voltage components during the operation of the equipment. There is high voltage and strong current inside the laser welding machine when it is working. Contacting these parts may cause electric shock accidents.

Ignore safety inspection: A comprehensive safety inspection should be carried out before each use to ensure that all equipment and facilities are in good working condition. This includes checking cables, connecting wires, cooling systems, etc.

Operation in flammable environment: There should be no flammable and explosive items in the working environment of the laser welding machine. The laser beam has the ability to ignite, and once it comes into contact with flammable materials, it may cause fire or explosion.

Overload use: Do not exceed the maximum load capacity of the equipment. Excessive use may cause the equipment to overheat, damage, or even safety accidents.

Ignore ventilation: Harmful gases and fumes may be generated during laser welding, so it is necessary to ensure that the working environment has a good ventilation system to prevent operators from inhaling harmful substances.

Randomly place the welding head: During use, the welding head should not be placed on the ground or other inappropriate locations at will to prevent dust from entering or the optical fiber from being damaged.

Ungrounded use: The laser welding machine must be grounded for use. Ungrounding may increase the risk of electric shock.

Ignore the emergency stop function: When encountering abnormal situations (such as abnormal noise, water leakage, etc.), the equipment should be stopped immediately and the power supply should be cut off to avoid further damage or accidents.
