Make sure you consult your laser dealer or a specialized fume extractor manufacturer. Let them know which laser you have, what materials you intend to process, and your projected production volumes. Higher production volumes require an extraction system with high-capacity filters. If you plan on buying a second laser in the future, you can save money by choosing a fume extractor that can be expanded to extract fumes from two lasers at the same time.
