Efficient Dust Extraction to Protect Personnel and Machinery
Laser technology has become a standard tool in machining applications for both metals and organic materials such as plastics and wood. While it offers increased precision and productivity, it also generates higher levels of airborne pollutants - some in the submicroscopic range. These emissions can impact both operator health and the performance of the laser system, making efficient dust extraction essential.
Conventional dry dust collectors are suitable for capturing both metallic and non-metallic dust. However, when processing organic materials, specialized separation methods are required to handle the unique properties of the emissions.
Flexible and Safe Dust Collection
Dust collectors from the VARIO, PT, and L-CUT series are well-suited for capturing very fine particulate generated during laser engraving processes. Airflow requirements can vary depending on the material and specific application. Thanks to the flexible design of these filter systems, airflow capacity can be tailored to individual processes - even those requiring high-volume extraction.
For thermal processes like laser engraving, additional fire and explosion protection measures are recommended. These should comply with applicable safety standards, including ATEX regulations.
