Hello everyone,
Are there any persons among you with experience in certifying
medium/high power laser products?
Our product uses laser light to directly "etch" printing plates. We
have questions regarding:
1. Is it at all allowable to have these products serviced with laser
on?
2. How strictly should the interlock function be designed to be "fail
safe" "highly reliable" etc. Would "fail safe" always imply two
independent interlocks?
It would be very helpful to hear how similar hazards were dealt with
in other products.
I would be very grateful for your comments and for pointers to other
individuals or companies who could help.
thanks
