Air Assist System
The Air Assist System consists of a nozzle that attaches to the focus
carriage, Optics protection adapters, tubing, mounting brackets,
needle valve, and pressure gauge. The purpose of this system is to
force air or other types of gases directly onto the surface of your
material to reduce the burning effects of the laser beam and helps
disperse the smoke and gases created when cutting or engraving
materials. The optics protection parts assist in helping keep the
optics cleaner from flying debris created from the pressurized
nozzle. Use of this system requires a minimum compressed air
source capable of 50 PSI @ 2.5 cfm. This supply MUST be free
from oil, water, and particulate matter. Another option called the “Air
Assist Compressor”, can supply this source. The Air Assist System
is truly a unique option that is a must for serious laser system
production.
Please refer to the instructions supplied with the Air Assist System on how to properly install and
use this option.
