1. Characteristics of safe combinations

A combination of laser device, laser light cable and focusing


optics is safe when the following criteria are fulfilled:

Wavelength Laser device, laser light cable and focusing optics must be
designed for the same wavelength spectrum.

Rated output Laser light cable and focusing optics must be suitable for the
rated power of the laser device.

Numerical aperture The numerical aperture of the laser light cable and the focusing
optics must not be smaller than that of the laser device.

2. Dangers due to impermissible
combinations

Laser radiation escaping


DANGER
Laser radiation can damage skin and eyes. Damage to
eyesight or even complete blindness can result.
Ø Only use safe combinations of laser device, laser light cable
and focusing optics.

Housing of focusing optics gets hot


DANGER
Touching the focusing optics can lead to serious burns.
Ø Only use safe combinations of laser device, laser light cable
and focusing optics.

2.1 Numerical apertures cannot be


combined

Numerical aperture of the If the numerical aperture of the focusing optics is smaller than
focusing optics is too small the numerical aperture on the decoupling connector, a part of the
laser light hits the aperture of the focusing optics. The housing
of the focusing optics can heat up strongly as a result
(> 300° C). The following dangers result from this:
■ Fire hazard: Materials in the environment of the focusing
optics can catch fire.
■ Risk of burns: People who work with the focusing optics
may suffer burns.
■ Risks from escape of laser radiation: People in the envi-
ronment of the focusing optics may be injured by escaping
laser radiation. Skin burns and loss of eyesight are possible.

Numerical aperture of the If the numerical aperture of the incoupling connector of the laser
laser light cable is too small light cable is smaller than the numerical aperture of the laser
device, a part of the laser light is coupled into the connector of
the laser light cable. This results in increased scattered light.
The laser devices switches off automatically.

2.2 Wavelength spectrums do not match

Focusing optics is not Focusing optics are designed for defined wavelength spectrums.
designed for laser device If a focusing optics is operated with a different wavelength than
specified, unforeseen reflections and transmissions to optical

components may occur. The housing of the focusing optics can
heat up strongly as a result (> 300° C). The following dangers
result from this:
■ Fire hazard: Materials in the environment of the focusing
optics can catch fire.
■ Risk of burns: People who work with the focusing optics
may suffer burns.
■ Risks from escape of laser radiation: People in the envi-
ronment of the focusing optics may be injured by escaping
laser radiation. Skin burns and loss of eyesight are possible.
■ Risks of laser radiation in eyepiece and stereo micro-
scope: People who look into the eyepiece or the stereomi-
croscope during the processing operation can lose their eye-
sight.

2.3 Focusing optics is not designed for


the rated power of the laser device

Rated power of the laser A focusing optics will be damaged if it is operated with a higher
device is too high power than that which is specified. The housing of the focusing
optics can hereby heat up strongly (> 300° C). The following
dangers result from this:
■ Fire hazard: Materials in the environment of the focusing
optics can catch fire.
■ Risk of burns: People who work with the focusing optics
may suffer burns.
■ Risks from escape of laser radiation: People in the envi-
ronment of the focusing optics may be injured by escaping
laser radiation. Skin burns and loss of eyesight are possible.

2.4 Laser light cable or focusing optics


are not from TRUMPF Laser GmbH

Unknown risks When the laser device is combined with components that are not
from TRUMPF Laser GmbH, the integrator or the operator must
draw up a risk assessment for the combined machine. This risk
assessment must include risks that could occur through the com-
bination of the individual components.

2. Warning instructions

A warning instruction is information that:


■ Names the type and source of a danger.
■ Indicates possible consequences in case the danger is not
avoided.
■ Gives instructions for how to avoid any damage.
One of the signal words "Danger", "Warning", "Caution", or
"Attention" indicates the severity of the possible consequences in
case the instructions are not observed.
"Danger" warns against a great danger. If not avoided, it leads
to death or serious injuries.
"Warning" warns against a danger that may cause medium or
serious injuries with permanent damage.
"Caution" warns against a danger that may cause light or
medium injuries without permanent damage.
"Attention" warns against possible material damage.
Example of a warning instruction:

Eyes and skin may be exposed to laser radiation if the


WARNING laser light is not placed under a protective cover!
Laser light can burn the skin. Direct or scattered laser light
can permanently damage your eyes.
Ø Take the necessary protective measures as specified below,
depending on the laser class.

It is absolutely necessary to observe and follow the warning


instructions!

laser light.

Laser device components include:


■ Laser with pump source
■ Energy supply for the pump source, e.g. diode power supply,
lamp power supply
■ Control
■ Cooling unit

Depending on the type and maximum power of the laser device,


it may have other components, such as:
■ Mains distribution
■ Cabinet cooler
■ Air cleaner or recirculating air dryer system
■ Gas purging unit

Pump light cable The pump light cable is a flexible connection element between
supply unit and laser head. The pump light is guided in a light
guide from the pump diode to the laser head. Around the light
guide there are different devices to avoid uncontrolled exit of
laser light and to protect the light guide.

Laser light cable The laser light cable is a flexible connecting element between
laser device and focusing optics. The laser light is guided from
the laser to the focusing optics in a light guide. For ultrashort
pulse lasers, only so-called hollow-core fibers are suitable due to
the high peak power, where the intensive laser pulse is not con-
ducted in glass, but in a vacuum, air or another filling gas. The
light guide is surrounded by several devices that prevent an
uncontrolled escape of laser light and protect the light guide.

Focusing optics Focusing optics are optical assemblies. Their main function is to
form the laser beam so that it achieves its maximum power den-
sity at a defined point, the focal point.
In the reflective focusing optics (RFO), the conical laser beam
coming out of the laser light cable hits the focusing mirror, which
guides the laser beam through the exit port and merges it in the
focal point.
The programmable focusing optics (PFO) includes one or two
scanner mirrors which allow the laser beam to be guided over a
processing field. It is thus possible to produce, for example,
welding seams without moving the focusing optics and the work-
piece.
The distance of the focal point from a certain edge or surface of
the focusing optics is called working distance. The working dis-
tance of the focusing optics determines the distance in which the
workpieces must be positioned so that they can be processed
with the laser.

2018-04 Terms 1‐7
Laser beam guidance The laser beam guidance deflects the output radiation of the
laser to the workpiece.

Safety circuit A safety circuit is an electric circuit for monitoring protective cov-
ers and doors of laser protective casings and cabins. When the
contacts are looped in, the safety circuit should always be closed
when all monitored covers and doors are closed.
When a contact interrupts the safety circuit because a door is
opened, for example, laser light emission is immediately stopped.
The safety circuit, as a central shutter of a laser device, stops
emission of laser lights on all light paths of the laser device.
The safety circuit of just one light path only stops light emission
on this light path. Laser light can still be emitted on the other
light paths if these safety circuits are closed.

4. Hazards

The laser product has been built in accordance with state-of-the-


art standards and the recognized safety rules. However, there
might be dangers for persons or material property during use. If
you do not observe the accident prevention regulations, these
dangers may result in damage.
This section describes possible dangers that might be caused by
your laser product.

In the following sections, you will find information about:


■ how TRUMPF has reduced the risk by applying constructive
measures.
■ how you, as the user, can guarantee a safe operation of the
laser product by taking additional measures during its use.

4.1 Laser light

Solid state lasers generate laser light in the near infrared spec-
tral range (900 nm – 1250 nm). Using converters, the laser light
can also be produced in the visible range (400-700 nm) or in the
ultraviolet spectral region (< 400 nm).
Laser light may be hazardous to eyes and skin.
Depending on the severity of the danger, laser products are clas-
sified in laser classes.
The classification of the laser product in laser classes is defined
internationally in the EN 60825-1 and IEC 60825 standards.
The meaning of the laser classes is described briefly below. The
precise definition listing limit values can be found in the stand-
ards stated above.

Class 1 Class 1 means that the laser light of this laser product is not
dangerous in standard operation.
The laser device is classified as class 1M (acc. to EN 60825-1)
if there may be a risk when observing laser light through optical
instruments.

Class 2 A class 2 laser product only emits in the visible spectral region
(400-700 nm). A brief exposure does not involve any risk. Delib-
erate staring in the beam might be dangerous for your eyes.
Active reactions are sufficient to protect your eyes against dam-
age: Avert your eyes, move your head or close your eyes.
The laser device is classified as class 2M (acc. to EN 60825-1)
if there may be a risk when observing laser light through optical
instruments.

20-10-06-A3001-
CR02
2018-04 Hazards 1‐9
Class 3 Class 3 is subdivided into class 3R and class 3B acc. to EN
60825-1. A previously existing restriction of class 3 to certain
spectral ranges no longer exists.
Class 3R laser products exceed the limits of class 2. In most
cases the risk is low. The risk of injury increases with the time of
exposure. A deliberate irradiation of your eyes is dangerous.
Class 3B laser products are normally dangerous when you look
directly into the beam. The observation of diffuse reflections is
usually not dangerous. Class 3B laser products the power of
which almost reaches that of class 4 might produce light skin
injuries; they might also ignite inflammable material.

Class 4 Exposure of the eye or skin to class 4 laser products is danger-


ous. Even diffuse radiation (scattered laser light) can be danger-
ous. Class 4 laser light can ignite inflammable material and
make explosive mixtures explode.

4.2 Electric energy

While carrying out maintenance work, you can come into


DANGER contact with dangerous live parts!
Touching live electric parts can be life threatening.
Ø Any work on the electric equipment must be carried out only
by a trained electrician.
Ø Switch off the laser product prior to maintenance work.
Ø Secure the laser product against restart.
Ø Before touching electric parts, first check if they are de-ener-
gized.

Faults Switch the laser device off immediately if troubles occur in the
electrical system, turn the main switch to position OFF.

Stationary device According to the safety regulations for protection from electrical
energy, this laser product is considered a fixed device. The
regionally enacted safety standards and accident prevention reg-
ulations apply accordingly

For you, as user of the laser product, this means:


■ The laser product may not be moved while switched on.

Regular check Check the electrical equipment of the laser product at regular
intervals. Defects such as loose connections or defective cables
must be eliminated immediately.
Electrical safety of the laser product must be checked regularly,
at least once every 4 years. The basis of the test is the German

1‐10 Hazards 2018-04 20-10-06-A3001-


CR02
standard DIN VDE 0702. Beyond the scope of this standard, the
regulations for the corresponding region are to be applied.

This check must be carried out by a trained electrician. Among


other things, it consists of the following actions:
■ Visual check, for example the condition of the protective
grounding conductor and its terminal locations.
■ Test of the protective grounding conductor resistance.

Backups Use only original fuses with the specified characteristics and cur-
rent rating.

Voltage with the main switch Some components carry dangerous voltage even if the main
off switch is in the OFF position. Therefore, before touching electric
parts, first, check if they are de-energized.

Capacitors The discharge time of capacitors may be more than one minute.
Check if the parts live during operation carry voltage, after
switching off the machine. Start working on live parts only after
you have checked if they are de-energized.

4.3 Gases, aerosols, dusts

When workpieces are processed, gases, aerosols or dusts can


be produced; these are dangerous to health. The biggest risk is
caused when the substances enter your respiratory tract. But
even contact with your skin or mucous membranes in your
mouth, nose or eyes can be dangerous.
Dust:
Solid particles > 1 µm.
Aerosols:
Gases with finely distributed solid or liquid particles < 1 µm.
Some escaping substances may cause cancer. The cancer risk
depends mainly on the material of the workpieces and the emit-
ted quantity.

Carcinogenic substances include


■ beryllium compounds
■ zinc chromates

The emitted quantity depends on:


■ the type of material.
■ the speed.
■ the laser power.
■ the cutting gas pressure, if applicable.

20-10-06-A3001-
CR02
2018-04 Hazards 1‐11
4.4 Thermal energy

Fire, explosion

Class 3B or 4 laser light may cause fires if it ignites inflammable


material.
If there is a potentially explosive mixture of gases or aerosols
(e.g. oxyhydrogen, wood or carbon dust) in the air, a laser beam
might cause an explosion, even if it does not hit solid material
with a high power density.

Temperature of the workpiece

Due to the processing by means of the laser beam, the work-


piece may be heated up. The degree of heating depends on the
material of the workpiece and the energy given off by the laser
beam to the workpiece during processing.

Risk of burns when touching the hot workpiece


WARNING
This may result in skin injuries.
Ø Remove hot workpieces using an appropriate tool.
Ø Wear protective gloves, if necessary.

4.5 Noise

Focusing optics The use of focusing optics in conjunction with lasers and
process gas produces noise.

Sources of noise in the area of the focusing optics include:


■ Material that evaporates as a result of the exposure to laser
light
■ Cutting gas or shielding gas passed to the processing point
■ Compressed air coming out of the crossjet
During laser welding, compressed air comes out of a nozzle,
called crossjet, perpendicularly to the direction of the laser
beam. If there is a crossjet, it is often the biggest source of
noise. Measurements have given values > 90 dB(A).

1‐12 Hazards 2018-04 20-10-06-A3001-


CR02
High noise level when operating a focusing optics,
WARNING especially when using a crossjet!
Noise can result in permanent ear damage and other
unfavorable consequences to health, especially upon
prolonged exposure.
Ø Surround the processing point with a protective cover that is
sufficiently silencing.
Ø Wear ear protection if the noise levels are high.
Ø Operate the focusing optics only with the silencing protective
cover closed, if possible.

The room in which a focusing optics is operated should have the


following characteristics:
■ The processing point should be as far away as possible from
places where people stay permanently.
■ Walls and devices are particularly good absorbers of noise.
■ The areas that are at risk from noise are labeled.
■ Ear protection devices are available in sufficient numbers.

A risk assessment must also be carried out on systems for devi-
ces without an EMERGENCY STOP and installed in accordance
with the safety device.

5.3 Safety circuits

The control unit of the laser device contains interfaces for safety
circuits (SIK).

What is a safety circuit? A safety circuit is an electric circuit used to monitor the protec-
tive covers and safety doors. Under the protective cover moni-
tored by the safety circuit, laser light can only be emitted from
the focusing lens if the laser protective cover is closed.

Purpose Safety circuits allow to operate entire systems as class 1 laser


products.

ASV board Each safety circuit is connected to the ASV board located in the
control unit of the laser device. The ASV board controls an opti-
cal shutter which prevents laser light leaving the laser when the
safety circuit is open.
ASV: Arbeits- und Sicherheits-Verschluss (operating and safety
shutter).

Mode of operation The following picture shows the general mode of operation of a
safety circuit.

scrapping if the housing of the laser modules are crushed.

GaAs is:
■ toxic if inhaled or swallowed.
■ carcinogenic for humans.
■ severely harmful to water, particularly for aquatic organisms
(fish, plankton etc.).
As long as the housing of the laser modules is not open or dam-
aged, GaAs does not pose any danger.
Always dispose of pump modules in accordance with the respon-
sible local waste disposal authority and observe the local regula-
tions.

5.2 Electromagnetic compatibility

An incorrect connection of the laser device to the supply system


or to other electric devices can change the characteristics of the
laser device with regard to electromagnetic compatibility. Data for
line connection are given in the interface description “Interfaces
of the laser devices”.
The laser device is only suitable for connection to the electric
mains in an industrial environment.

5.3 Insulation resistance

The insulation resistance is the resistance measured between


the phase connection (L1, L2 or L3) and protective earth (PE) of
an electrical device. The TRUMPF laser devices can have an
insulation resistance < 1 MΩ upon delivery. Nevertheless, these
laser devices guarantee that the permitted contact voltage is not
exceeded.
The allowed insulation resistance for this laser type is listed in
(see "Tab. 2-2", pg. 2‐17). If the value does not fall below the
value defined, the laser device can be registered as "OK".

2‐20 Connected loads 2018-04 20-10-06-A3001-


CR02
Conditions
■ The device is disconnected from the mains during the meas-
urement.
■ The main switch is in ON position.
■ According to EN 60204, the insulation resistance must be
≥ 1 MΩ.
If during a regular check of the electrical devices you discover
that a TRUMPF laser device has an insulation resistance
< 1 MΩ, proceed as follows:

Check regularly 1. Check the minimum allowed insulation resistance of the laser
device (see "Tab. 2-2", pg. 2‐17).
2. If the measured value is larger than the table value, register
the laser device as "OK" and label it.
3. If the measured value is smaller than the table value, elimi-
nate the cause for the small value and repeat the measure-
ment.

One possible reason may be a performed technical modifica-


tion on the laser device after delivery, this modification may
influence the insulation resistance.
or
Ø If you cannot find the cause or if it is not possible to
eliminate it, contact the TRUMPF service and agree the
further proceeding with the service.
The contact details (telephone number, etc.) of the serv-
ice department are given on the first page of the operat-
ing instructions of the laser device.

Cooling water consumption for pipe
dimensioning

Minimum water consumption characteristic Fig. 2-11

The characteristic curve shows the required water against the


supply temperature at maximum power consumption (e.g. serv-
ice). The characteristic curve serves for dimensioning of the pipe
system and the cooling unit.

Pressure drop curve Fig. 2-12

The flow rate is shown here using the minimum pressure differ-
ence of the laser cooler (with open internal valves). Note that
this is the pressure difference at the connections of the laser
device.

Determining dimensioning
data

Example Fig. 2-13

Note
When dimensioning the piping for the external cooling water,
make sure that the required differential pressure is applied
directly to the device connections.
1. Determine the maximum possible supply temperature of the
external cooling water.
2. Read off the minimum water requirement at the correspond-
ing characteristic curve of water requirement (Fig. "Example"
left).
- In the example: Water consumption at maximum power
consumption at a supply temperature of 21℃ = 1.45 m³/h.
3. Read the pressure drop which is generated at this flow rate
between the supply and the return of the cooling unit at the
pressure drop characteristic (Fig. "Example" right) on the
right side.
- In the example: 0.2 bar.
To ensure the function of the internal solenoid valves,
the minimum pressure difference of 0.2 bar must be
reached!
4. When selecting hose cross-sections and hose lengths,
TRUMPF recommends a safety factor of 0.5 bar in order to
compensate for slight contamination of the filter and for
measuring inaccuracies on site.
- In the example: 0.7 bar.
The determined values for water consumption and pressure drop
have to be dimensioned in a way that the reliable operation of
the laser device is guaranteed. Laser device operation with lower
values reduces the regulation reserve of the cooling unit. This
may cause a frequent display of monitoring or fault messages

3. Optical arrangement

Fig. 3-4

The optical arrangement contains all components for guidance of


the laser light within the laser device until the beam enters the
incoupling optics. The laser light cable is connected to the incou-
pling optics.
The components of the optical arrangement are grouped and
arranged according to the respective machining task.
Between the components there are metal beam guard elements
with circular cross-section.
The following picture shows an example of an optical arrange-
ment. The picture shows the main components available for opti-
cal arrangements. The meaning and function of the components
are explained below. This variant of the optical arrangement
allows the guiding of the laser light cable into one or two proc-
essing stations.
A representation of your optical arrangement is to be found in
the documentation delivered together with your laser device. To
understand the functions of your optical arrangement (see "Com-
ponents of the optical arrangement", pg. 3‐11).

The laser light is fed in at the point to which the arrow desig-
nated “LASER” is pointing.
In a deflection, the laser light is deflected by 90° to the left to
the first shutter switch (VW).
The positions of the shutter switches VW determine to which
light path the laser light is guided.
The following picture shows a variant of the optical arrangement
that allows a retrofitting of one outlet without converting the exist-
ing shutter switch.

If the mirror is in the beam guideway, the laser beam is
deflected by 90° (picture B). If the beam is swiveled out of the
beam guideway, the laser beam passes through the shutter
switch in a straight line (picture A).

laser

1 Pilot laser 3 Pilot laser beam


2 Shutter switch mirror
Fig. 3-10

The shutter switch enclosure with pilot laser contains a semi-con-


ductor laser is (1). The semiconductor laser functions as a pilot
laser for the light path to which the shutter switch is assigned.

Advantage The pilot laser in the shutter switch can be used while the work-
ing laser light is guided to a different light path. This allows to
use the pilot laser at processing point while workpieces are
machined at a different point.

Activate pilot laser The pilot laser can be switched on as soon as the shutter switch
mirror has been swiveled out of the beam guideway (shutter
closed (see "Fig. 3-11", pg. 3‐14)).
To switch on the pilot laser on the user interface is described in
chapter "Operating".

Laser classes The pilot laser has been classified as a Class 3Rcomponent.
This must be taken into account during operation, for example
by the service personnel, after removal from the unit.
In standard operation, the pilot laser light emitted from the
focussing optics outlet corresponds to class 1.

Shutter switch functions A shutter switch is a switch with a safety function. Its design
does not differ from that of a usual switch. The difference lies in
the activation of the shutter switch by an ASV board. The shutter
switch is integrated into a safety circuit via the ASV board.
Thus, the shutter switch has two functions:

Operating function In the operating function, the central shutter is controlled by


operator commands or laser programs as long as the safety cir-
cuit is closed.

Safety function When the safety circuit is interrupted, the shutter switch is set
immediately to direct the laser beam into an absorber (see "Fig.
3-11", pg. 3‐14) (picture A). This also happens if a different
command comes from the operator or from a running laser pro-
gram.
Information about the operating principle and wiring of the safety
circuit is to be found in the interface description “ASV safety cir-
cuit”.
The number of shutter switches in an optical arrangement is usu-
ally identical to the number of light paths. The shutter switches
are arranged in series. They are activated in such a way that at
most one shutter switch is open (mirror in the beam guideway,
(see "Fig. 3-11", pg. 3‐14) (pictures B and C). This ensures that
when the safety circuit is interrupted the laser beam is always
directed into the absorber which is the last in the series.

The deflection deflects the laser beam by 90° to the right or to


the left.

3.2 Selecting a light path

The positions of the mirrors in the controllable components of


the optical arrangement (beam switches, shutter switches, shut-
ters) determine the light path.

Light path determined by VW2 Fig. 3-13

In this figure, the mirror of the shutter switch VW2 has been
swiveled into the beam guideway. At this point, the laser beam is
deflected through 90° and coupled into the laser light cable con-
nected to this light path.

2018-04 Optical arrangement 3‐15
Light path determined by VW1 Fig. 3-14

In this figure, the mirror of the shutter switch VW1 has been
swiveled into the beam guideway. At this point, the laser beam is
deflected through 90° and coupled into the laser light cable con-
nected to this light path.

Light path in the absorber Fig. 3-15

In this figure, the mirrors of the shutter switches VW1 and VW2
have been swiveled out of the beam guideway. The laser beam
passes through both shutter switches in a straight line and
enters the absorber, where it is converted into heat, until the
laser device is switched off.
In case of beam switches with safety function (shutter switches)
and shutters, the mirror is positioned such, after interruption of
the appertaining safety circuit, that the laser beam is guided into
an absorber or to a safe light path.

Light paths may be selected (excluding the light path in the


absorber):
■ Using software interface of the laser device (see chapter
"Operation").
■ in laser programs (see chapter "Operation").

3.3 Wedge beam switch (option)

The wedge beam switch can be used optionally in optical


arrangements of the TruDisk XXX1 laser devices.

With a wedge beam switch in the beam guideway of the laser


output it is possible, in conjunction with a 2-in-1 LLK, to select
the core diameter of the LLK through which the laser light will be
guided to the focusing optics:
■ via the inner core of 100 µm (1) for cutting applications.
■ via the outer core 400 µm or 600 µm (2) (depending on the
LLK) for welding applications.

The position of the wedge beam switch is determined by the


selected light path, e.g.:
■ Light path 1: the wedge of the wedge beam switch is not in
the beam guideway. The light beam is incident on the inner
core of 100 µm of the LLK. LED (2) lights up.
■ Light path 2: the wedge of the wedge beam switch is in the
beam guideway. The light beam is incident on the outer core
of 400 or 600 µm of the LLK. LED (1) lights up.

3.4 Switch can be adjusted by motor for


BrightLine Weld (option)

The switch can be used optionally in optical arrangements of


specific laser devices.
The switch is used together with a 2-in-1 LLK. The laser light
can be guided to the focusing optics by adjusting a wedge in the

LLK.
■ Welding: 100% of the laser light in the outer core of the 2-

Laser light cable

Fig. 3-22

Purpose The laser light cable is a flexible transmission means for laser
light. It enables the spatial separation between laser and proc-
essing station.

Structure In the interior of the laser light cable there is a light guide which
guides the laser beam from the laser device to the focusing
optics. The light guide is surrounded by a plastic hose and a
steel sheath. The steel housing protects the light guide from
mechanical stress. It limits the bending radius of the laser light
cable.
The steel sheath is surrounded by an external plastic hose which
protects the laser light cable against environmental effects.
A safety device integrated into the laser light cable switches the
laser automatically off if the light guide is damaged or the laser
light cable at the laser or at the focusing optics is pulled out.

Monitoring The laser light cable is monitored over the whole length. The
laser device switches off immediately and no more laser light
can be emitted if a fault occurs in the laser light cable.
The fit of both optical plugs is monitored. If an optical plug is
loosened, the laser device immediately switches off.
The electrical plug is connected to the laser light cable monitor-
ing of the laser control.

Laying the laser light cable Laser light cables must be permanently installed outside the
laser safety cabins.

To do so, use:
■ Cable clips
■ Cable ducts
■ Other appropriate auxiliaries for fastening cables.
Laser light cables can be laid freely and loosely inside of the
laser cabins which are monitored by a safety circuit.

The control unit contains interfaces to higher-ranking control
units. They allow an external control of the laser device. Further
information on this topic is given in the chapter "Installation con-
ditions" and in the interface descriptions.

Drive The most important functions are:


■ Switching on and off.
■ Controlling the optical arrangement.
■ Controlling the laser power.
■ Communication with external devices (e.g. PLC).

Monitoring The control unit also monitors the following operational values:
■ Laser power.
■ Temperature of the cooling means.
■ Temperatures within the area of the laser and of the optical
arrangement.
■ Condition of the laser light cable.
■ Safety contacts on the processing points.

Reporting If an operational value is outside the permitted range, the control


unit generates a monitoring message or a fault message.

7. Laser cooler

Fig. 3-33

The laser cooler dissipates the heat arising in the laser through
a heat exchanger to an external cooling circuit.
If the supply temperature in the external cooling circuit exceeds
a certain value or the minimum pressure in the supply is no lon-
ger reached, an external chiller must be used in addition. You
will find the corresponding technical information in the chapter
“Installation conditions, Transport”.

The laser is cooled with cooling water. The pump delivers the
cooling water from the tank via the supply distributor to the
cooled components:
■ Pump unit and other cooled components of the laser
■ Absorber and other cooled components of the optical
arrangement.
■ Focusing optics.
■ Diode power supply.
The water absorbs the heat in the components and flows
through the return collectors into the heat changer where the
heat is dissipated to the external cooling circuit. From the heat
exchanger the water flows back to the tank.

Programming light paths TRUMPF has already programmed all possible light paths for the
optical arrangement of your laser device. Programming light
paths should be done exclusively by the TRUMPF Laser service
engineers (from user level 70). This is only necessary if the opti-
cal arrangement of the laser device was changed in such a way
that other light paths become possible or previous light paths are
no longer possible.

3.7 Pilot laser

A pilot laser is provided in the laser device and sends visible,


red light with low power through the beam guideway. In this way
it is possible to observe the light path and the processes at the
processing point. If the pilot laser is switched on, the icon for the
pilot laser is displayed in the status bar.

Fig. 4-11

Activate pilot laser When the pilot laser is switched on, is determined:
■ by the pilot laser mode set in the system settings (see "Set-
ting the pilot laser mode", pg. 4‐19).
■ by the shutter switch state (shutter switch closed or open).
■ by the state of the safety circuit (safety circuit interrupted or
closed).
■ by the PILOT_LASER_ON external signal.

Switching the switching functions of pilot


laser on and off

If the switching functions of the pilot laser are switched on or off


by TruControl 1000, the pilot laser is switched on or off for all
existing light paths. The pilot laser can be switched on or off for

1. Service interruptions

TRUMPF laser devices are equipped with extensive monitoring


functions that ensure reliable operation. In case of anomalies
from normal operation, messages are displayed which indicate
necessary measures, if possible.
However, during operation of the laser device, events may occur
which cause service interruptions. In this case, the causes of the
service interruption must be eliminated before operation can be
continued.

1.1 Measures in case of service


interruptions

Work on the laser device might bear risks for you or others.
DANGER
If such risks are not avoided, they can lead to death,
serious injuries or considerable damage to property.
Ø Causes for service interruptions may only be remedied by
persons who are sufficiently familiar with the laser device.
Ø Switch off laser device and secure it against being switched
on again, if it is not absolutely necessary to switch it on.
Ø Before touching parts that can carry dangerous voltages dur-
ing operation, check that they are free of voltage.
Ø Wear personal safety equipment if required for the corre-
sponding action (e.g. laser safety goggles, safety gloves).
Ø Observe the safety instructions and warnings of these oper-
ating instructions and of other documents.

1. Identify the cause of the service interruption.


2. Carry out recommended measures according to the instruc-
tions of the manual, if applicable.
Contact the TRUMPF service department if you cannot
find or eliminate the cause. Indicate the following:

Ø Number of the displayed message.


Ø The events which lead to the service interruption.

The TRUMPF service department will carry out all necessary


work in order to allow you to operate the laser device as soon
as possible.

2. Identifying causes

Different factors outside and inside the laser device can be taken
into consideration as causes for service interruptions. Before tak-
ing measures, you should know as much as possible about the
cause of service interruption.

Causes of a service interruption may be the following, e.g.:


■ Unsatisfactory machining results due to:
− Defective workpieces.
− Soiled protective glasses of the focusing optics.
■ Errors in programs:
− Pulse shapes.
− Laser programs.
− Light paths.
− Sequential programs in the external controls (PLC etc.).
■ Error in wiring of interfaces in case of external control of the
laser device.
■ Operating error.
■ Malfunctions in the laser device.
Having identified the cause, take appropriate measures to elimi-
nate it. Please contact the customer service of TRUMPF if you
need assistance.

3. Monitoring and faults

3.1 Monitoring

Numerous operational values of the laser device are monitored.


Examples:
■ Laser power.
■ Position of the switch mirrors and shutter mirrors.
■ Temperature and flow of the cooling water.
■ The control signals are checked for plausibility.
The operational values are constantly measured and compared
to nominal values or limit values. If an operational value is out-
side the permissible range, the control unit of the laser device
generates a monitoring message.

Monitoring message The yellow display "Monitoring" is illuminated in the main dialog
of TruControl 1000.

Message code Via the display of the message memory it is possible to call up
the message text:
⇒ Select the main activity Diagnostics.
The message stack is displayed.

Short message text The short text gives the operator one-line information on the
cause for the message.

Note
If a monitoring message is displayed, operation of the laser
device is still possible. However, the cause for the message
should be eliminated at the first opportunity. If the cause is not
eliminated, a monitored operating value may exceed the fault
limit soon (see section Fault).
In case of malfunction, the laser device cannot be operated until
the cause of the malfunction has been eliminated.

3.2 Malfunction

When a monitored operational value is far outside the permissi-


ble range, a critical condition will probably have been reached
which does not allow the operation of the laser device to be con-
tinued. This is why fault limits are set which the operational val-
ues are compared to.

If an operational value exceeds a fault limit:


■ The laser is switched off automatically.
■ a fault message is displayed on the screen.

Fault message The red display "Fault" is illuminated in the main dialog of Tru-
Control 1000.
