Does the laser beam generated by the laser marking machine cause radiation damage to the human body? Many people who are new to the laser equipment industry will consult this issue. After all, laser is a high-brightness, high-power, high-energy beam. From the fixed thinking of people, strong laser irradiation can cause burns to the human skin. Is this true?

As a new type of advanced processing equipment, the laser marking machine is more and more mature and applied to various industries. The marking machine has a very small beam and does not produce toxic or harmful gases. However, the operator generally likes to stare at the light beam of the marking machine. If the sparks generated by the marking are seen for a long time, it will hurt the eyes and have a stinging sensation. Therefore, if you look at it for a long time, it always has a certain impact on the human eye, so try not to stare at the beam.

Basically, laser equipment such as UV laser marking machine and fiber laser marking machine will not cause obvious harm to the human body. It is necessary to pay special attention to the CO2 laser marking machine. After the skin absorbs the laser energy, the local skin temperature is If the temperature rises in a short period of time, the temperature rises to different degrees, and the damage caused is also different. In particular, infrared lasers are prominent, such as CO2 lasers (gas lasers). The skin has a high absorption rate and a low transmittance of such 10.6μm wavelength infrared lasers. The skin strongly absorbs CO2 lasers, which causes the local temperature of the skin to rise rapidly High and easily cause damage. Therefore, you should avoid placing any part of your body in the path of laser light, and you should pay special attention to the protection of eyes and skin to avoid injury.

Laser marking is a widely used marking method in the processing industry. It is environmentally friendly and energy-saving. As long as it is properly operated, generally, the laser marking machine will not cause any harm to the body. Of course, it is impossible to say that there is no harm at all. There is a danger of doing any work. Follow good operating guidelines and keep in mind that there will be no problems.
