To protect personnel from Welding lasers it is imperative to have comprehensive laser safety protection in place. Laser radiation must be prevented from escaping from manufacturing zones using certified equipment.

Using Class 4 Lasers under service conditions may require free-standing screens to allow other work to continue safely in the same room during service. Also, where a production line uses a Class 4 laser for cutting and welding, it is impractical for the whole facility to observe Class 4 safety regulations. However, using complete enclosures respecting BS EN IEC 60825-4 norm can transform the laser facility into a Class 1 system. 

Lasermach provide a range of free-standing laser-blocking screens which are designed for use as passive guards to enclose areas where Class 4 lasers are in use either to protect against accidental exposure to the laser beam or for long term blocking of laser radiation at lower power densities.  All Lasermach laser-blocking screens are CE marked and certified to BS EN IEC 60825-4 Safety of Laser Products Part 4: Laser Guards.  All of the screens are portable and can be used as simple temporary installations or can be used on a semi-permanent or permanent basis as required.
