Laser Machine Procedure

The document outlines the procedures for starting up and operating a laser cutting machine. It discusses: 1. Required utilities including nominal voltage, gases like nitrogen and oxygen with specified pressures, convergent gases like helium and carbon dioxide between 5.5-6 bars, and coolant water mixing ratios. 2. Startup steps like turning on the water cooling, opening gas valves, powering on the machine interface, initiating the laser and high voltage, and executing the home position. 3. Programming and cutting procedures such as loading materials below a weight limit, verifying programs, and making offsets for cutting. 4. Shutdown steps including stopping programs, turning off laser and power, and closing accessory
