We asked the question and you answered...
‘I’m not sure if we need it’
Let us guide you through some questions to ask yourself.
When did you last get your requirements scoped?
Do you keep meaning to get around to checking but never find the time?
Are you hoping opening a window will provide enough ventilation?
Processes and materials are evolving all the time.
Often, focus is put on buying the best laser, but additional, vital equipment, might be overlooked. We know from talking to customers every day that new materials are being introduced so it is dangerous to assume that what worked for one substance, will be fine another. Do you know what chemical reactions could be taking place? Does your new material or faster process present a risk of fire? How confident are you that every particle is being removed? Are you hoping that venting to air is good enough?
It is important that as your workplace evolves, so does all your equipment. Our fume extraction experts are out on the road all the time, servicing our own equipment…and our competitors’. They have reported cases of workplaces that have spent vast amounts of money on the latest lasers but haven’t paid attention to vital equipment.
A small investment in the right fume extraction solution can help you reap huge rewards for years to come.
Examples of processes that require fume extraction:
Laser coding and marking
