      Operational protection measures<\/span><\/h2>\n

      1. Necessary protective equipment for laser cutting machines<\/span><\/h3>\n

      The typical protective equipment for laser cutting machines is laser protective goggles because protective goggles that prevent laser damage to human eyes can be divided into reflection, absorption, diffraction, and composite types according to their protection principles. Of course, they will be filtered and protected according to the laser radiation wavelength of the laser cutting machine to achieve the protection of the laser cutting machine laser of the human body. This is also the safer and convenient protective equipment for the laser cutting machine on the market.<\/p>\n

      2. Self-protection against radiation of laser cutting machine<\/span><\/h3>\n

      If the human body is sufficiently healthy, it can resist the slight radiation of the laser cutting machine. Therefore, laser cutting machine operators should pay attention to eating more foods rich in vitamin A, C, and protein as appropriate. Because these foods can help humans to better protect the eyes so that the human body can better protect the human body under the conditions of laser cutting machine radiation.<\/p>\n

      Daily maintenance of laser machine | Grasp the Correct Use of Fiber Laser Cutting Machine<\/span><\/h2>\n

      1. Water replacement and water tank cleaning<\/span><\/h3>\n

      Recommendation: Clean the water tank and replace the circulating water once a week.
      \nNote: Make sure that the laser tube is filled with circulating water before the machine works.
      \nThe water quality and temperature of the circulating water directly affect the service life of the laser tube. It is recommended to use pure water and control the water temperature below 35\u00b0C. If it exceeds 359C, the circulating water needs to be replaced. (It is recommended that users choose a cooler or use two water tanks).<\/p>\n

      Cleaning the water tank: first, turn off the power, unplug the water inlet pipe, let the water in the laser tube automatically flow into the water tank, open the water tank to take out the water pump, and remove the dirt on the water pump. Clean the water tank, replace the circulating water, restore the water pump back to the water tank, insert the water pipe connected to the water pump into the water inlet, and arrange all joints. Power on the water pump alone and run for 2-3 minutes (make the laser tube full of circulating water).<\/p>\n
