===== About =====

The Trotec Laser Cutter uses a 30-60W CO2 laser to cut and engrave various materials. It utilizes CorelDraw as a 2D sketch manager, which is then imported into Trotec's specific cutting software. CorelDraw can be used to create the 2D sketch, however importing a DXF file or PDF into CorelDraw from Solidworks or other CAD packages is preferred due the CAD packages integrated features and functions.

===== Safety Concerns =====

This laser engraving system contains a class 4 carbon dioxide (CO2) laser that emits intensive and invisible laser radiation. Without safety precautions the direct radiation or even diffuse reflected radiation is dangerous! 
  * Always wear safety glasses when using the machine.
  * Always work with the machine cover closed.
  * NEVER leave the laser machine alone when running a job. If you do need to leave, make sure there is someone else nearby who is aware that it is on and cutting.
  * The machine door must be left open while you are away.
  * Do not store any flammable materials in the inside of the device or in the immediate vicinity of the device.
  * Remove leftovers of previously produced materials before running a job.
  * A fire extinguisher/fire blanket must always be handy as the laser beam can ignite flammable materials. 
  * Metals, particularly un-coated aluminum, copper in particular, silver and gold, cannot be processed with the laser and lead to high reflections of the laser beam. If needed, metals can be coated with a paint/tape which chemically bonds to the surface when engraved. 
  * Before processing materials the user must verify whether harmful materials can be generated and whether the filter equipment of the exhaust system is suitable for the harmful materials.
  * PVC (polyvinyl chloride) must under no circumstances be processed with the laser.
  * Looking directly into the laser can cause retinal damage. 
  * Confirm that the fume collection system is running whenever the laser is cutting or engraving. 
  * Whenever heat is a concern, please use the nitrogen air assist. This includes cutting features with high surface density, or cutting materials that like to melt, such as delrin.
