Effective protection against laser radiation is essential for laser cutting. The retaining plate for the beam guard shown here is used on TruMatic machines. These machines happen to be ideal for manufacturing beam guards, as punch laser machines are adept at handling particularly intricate and precise geometries. They excel in creating precise fits as they can be produced directly on the machine, eliminating the need for additional reworking. The same applies to countersinks, which are required for screw connections.
