Why is it important to have a proper fume extractor for your laser engraver?

The fumes generated by the laser process consist of respirable submicronic dust and Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) gases. The fumes pose a risk to three important aspects of your business: 

1) Production Quality (parts staining) 

2) Laser Reliability (dust accumulation on optics and mechanics) 

3) Health and Safety 

It is important to invest in a quality fume extractor that is professionally designed and properly matched to your laser engraver and production process.
