2. Information on special risks
This sections deals with the special risks involved in using the
laser device:
■ Risks involved by laser light
■ Hazard generated by gas and particle emission
■ Risks involved by electrical energy
You will learn how to protect yourself against these risks.
2.1 Laser light
YAG lasers generate an intensive radiation in the invisible, near

infrared spectral range. This light may be hazardous to eyes and
skin.
Important protective measures regarding the handling of laser
light are indicated in the accident prevention regulations applica-
ble for your region. In Germany the accident prevention regula-
tions "Laser radiation" (BGV B 2) is applicable. These accident
prevention regulations refer to the standard EN 60825 "Safety of
laser products", available as international harmonized standard
IEC 60825.
Laser classes An important aspect of the regulations is the classification of

laser equipment into certain laser classes, dependent on the
hazards generated by the emitted laser radiation.
The definition of the laser classes is described briefly below. The
precise definition listing limit values can be found in EN 60825.
Class 1 Class 1 means that the laser device does not show any danger
regarding laser light in normal operation. If observing laser light
through optical instruments is dangerous, then the laser is classi-
fied as class 1M.
TRUMPF achieves class 1 for laser devices by assembling suita-
ble protective cases and protective covers. The laser is classi-
fied as class 4 during maintenance and service work with open
protective casing and with bridged safety switch.
Class 2 Class 2 means that the laser emits light in the visible wave-
length region (400 – 700 nm). The radiation is not harmful to the
human eye, even when observing it through optical instruments.
Avoid looking directly into the beam. If observing laser light
through optical instruments is dangerous, then the laser is classi-
fied as class 2M.
Class 3R Class 3R means that the laser emits radiation in the wavelength
range from 302.5 nm to 106 nm. A direct look into the beam may
20-10-02-A3-CR02 2012-10 Information on special risks 1‐7

be dangerous. The risk is, however, less than with Class 3B
lasers.
Class 3B Class 3B means that the direct or mirrored beam is dangerous.

The observation of diffuse reflections is usually not dangerous.
Class 4 Class 4 means that the radiation is dangerous to eyes and skin.
Appropriate precautions must be taken, especially a sufficient
eye protection by means of special laser safety goggles, when
operating Class 4 laser devices.
Laser devices, laser machines and accessories are assigned to
the laser classes as follows:
Device, component Laser class

Laser device with closed hood 1
Laser device with open hood 4
Laser light cable 1
Focusing optics under a closedprotective cover 1
Focusing optics withoutprotective cover 4
Laser machines with protective cover 1
Laser machines without protective cover 4
Pilot laser at the exit port (switch, deflection) 3R
Pilot laser at the exit of the focusing optics 2
Tab. 1-2
Protective measures against laser light
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 the eyes.
Ø Take the necessary protective measures as specified below,
depending on the laser class.
Comply with laws and regulations

Proceed in accordance with the laws and regulations applicable in your
region, when operating laser devices.

Furthermore you have to appoint in writing experts as laser safety offi-
cers when operating classes 3B and 4 laser devices. Upkeep also forms
part of operation.
Tab. 1-5
Operator’s obligations Wear adjustment goggles

The laser safety goggles protect against diffuse scattered light only.
Thus, never look into the direct beam or reflected beam even when wear-
ing laser safety goggles!
Tab. 1-6
Keep body parts away from the beam guideway in the area of the
laser exit opening
High-power laser light can cause serious burns on the skin or clothing.
Tab. 1-7
Secure the laser area against the entry of unprotected people

Secure the processing point against the entry of unprotected people by
introducing appropriate safety measures, e.g. card readers or barrier sys-
tems.
Tab. 1-8
Registering the laser unit

As operator you are obliged to report the operation of laser devices of
classes 3B and 4 to the authorities responsible for working safety.
If you have any questions about this, please contact TRUMPF or a local
agency of TRUMPF GmbH + Co. KG.
Tab. 1-9
Class 3R Wear adjustment goggles

yourself against the wave length of the laser light in use.
Tab. 1-10
20-10-02-A3-CR02 2012-10 Laser light 1‐9

Secure the area against the access of unprotected persons
Prevent the access of unprotected persons to the processing spot by
appropriate safety measures, e.g. by card readers or barrier systems.
Tab. 1-11
Class 2 Do not look into the laser beam on purpose

The incidence of laser light on the unprotected eye may damage the ret-
ina irreparably.
Tab. 1-12
Class 1
According to definition, class 1 laser units are harmless. Persons are not
required to take protective measures.
Tab. 1-13
Safety circuit
If you have integrated the laser device into a unit with laser
shielding cover, ensure that the laser shielding cover is included
in the safety circuit of the laser device. The safety circuit
ensures that laser light can only be emitted from the focusing
lens if the laser protective cover is closed.
The corresponding information is to be found in section "Safety
circuits" of this chapter and in the interface description of the
ASV.
If you operate the laser device without laser protective cover, the
workstation is assigned to the laser class 4. In that case, please
take the necessary protective measures in the danger area of
the laser device.
2.2 Hazardous materials
Especially when handling hazardous materials, we expressly

point out that we can only give examples of danger sources. As
the operator of the unit, you have to estimate the possible dan-
ger potential of the materials to be processed and to check and
introduce necessary measures.
For precautionary reasons and independently of the necessary
extraction and filtering devices of the exhaust air duct, it is rec-
ommended to make provisions for a sufficient supply of fresh air
in the working area. In this connection we refer to the standards
and directives applicable for your region. In Germany, the "Tech-
nical regulations for hazardous substances" (TRGS) is applicable.
1‐10 Hazardous materials 2012-10 20-10-02-A3-CR02

Emission of particles when the extraction system is not
WARNING operational!
Harmful gases and particles can enter the respiratory tract
if the laser device is operated without an operational
extraction system.
Ø Do not inhale gas or particles.
Ø Only work with a properly working extraction system.
Ø Position the exhaust funnel as near to the processing point
as possible.
Ø Avoid bent or squeezed exhaust hoses.
Dust, aerosols and gases
The following substances are released when processing metallic

materials with the laser:
■ Dust (particle size over 1 µm).
■ Aerosols (particle size below 1 µm). An aerosol is a gas
(particularly air) that contains solid or liquid substances in
dispersed form. During laser welding, weld smoke is devel-
oped, which mainly consists of iron and iron oxide.
■ Gases.
Note
If the designated use allows the processing of non-metallic mate-
rials such as semiconductor and synthetic (dielectric) materials,
the gases generated during machining of the these materials
must be observed.
Emission The emission during the machining of metallic materials depends

on the (processing) speed and the cutting gas pressure, if appli-
cable. The emission is minimal in case of optimum parameters.
In addition to the cutting parameters, the type of material has a
strong influence on the emission.
When processing mild steel, the emission is remarkably lower
than with Cr-Ni materials or galvanized steel sheets. When pro-
cessing metals using a laser, aerosols and dusts 97 % of which
having a diameter < 5.7 μm are produced.
Note
Depending on the utilization of the laser device, carcinogenic
substances can be emitted, depending on the materials pro-
cessed. If there is such a risk, the operator has to carry out his
own measurements and to take protective measures for the per-
sonnel, if required.

When treating metallic materials with cutting oils, hydrocarbons

and aldehydes may be released during laser cutting. When using
the cutting oils recommended by TRUMPF, the following thresh-
old limit values at place of work (TLV) were for example meas-
ured:
Galvanized steel Aluminum alloy TLV

sheet (mg/m3) (mg/m3)
(mg/m3)
Acetaldehyde 0,007 0,005 90
Acetone 0,111 0,204 2400
Butanol 0,334 0,022 300
Butyl acetate 0,081 0,007 950
Decane 0,060 0,004 no limit value
Ethyl acetate 0,237 0,002 1400
Ethylbenzene 0,034 0,004 440
Formaldehyde 0,021 0,013 0,6
All hydrocarbons 2,600 1,875 no limit value
Toluene 0,057 0,12 380
Xylene 0,113 0,013 440
Cutting oils Tab. 1-14
In these cases, the values fall distinctly short of the maximum

allowable concentrations (MAC values) (examples of the use of
other cutting oils are not directly applicable).
Cutting oils for aluminum processing – such as the oil of the
company Wisura recommended by TRUMPF – contain amine
components so that nitrosamines could theoretically be formed
during laser processing.
However, investigations to that effect showed a negative result in
all tests: Nitrosamines could not be detected.
When using the cutting oils on a chlorine-free basis, recommen-
ded by TRUMPF, the generation of polychlorinated biphenylene
(PCB) and dioxins can be excluded.
Polyethylene-coated sheets When sheets coated with polyethylene films are cut by laser,
mainly aliphatic and olefinic compounds are released:
■ n-heptane, 1-heptene, heptadiene
■ n-octane, 1-octene, octadiene
■ n-nonane, 1-nonene, nonadiene
■ n-decane, 1-decene, decadiene
■ n-undecane, 1-undecene, undecadiene
■ further n-alkane, 1-alkene, diene pairs
■ Toluene
■ Ethylbenzene
1‐12 Hazardous materials 2012-10 20-10-02-A3-CR02

■ L-limonene
■ N-butylbenzenesulfonamide
During measurements in the extracted air flow by means of a
total hydrocarbon analyzer (FID), methane concentrations
between 2 and 10 ppm were found.
Therefore, it is not to be expected that limits are exceeded by
organic exhaust air components when polyethylene-coated
sheets are processed by laser. Bad smell may be caused by
individual very low concentrations (ppb range) of odor-intensive
exhaust air components.
2.3 Electrical energy
While carrying out upkeep work, you can come into contact
DANGER with dangerous live parts!
Touching live electric parts can be extremely dangerous.
Ø Any work on the electric equipment must be carried out only
by a trained electrician.
Ø Switch off the laser device prior to any upkeep work.
Ø Secure the laser device 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 device is considered a fixed device. The
regionally enacted safety standards and accident prevention reg-
ulations apply accordingly.
For you, as user of the laser device, this means:

■ The laser device may not be moved while switched on.
Regular check The electrical safety of the device must be checked regularly, at
least every 4 years. The basis for the check is the German
standard DIN VDE 0702. Outside the scope of this standard, the
regulations relevant in the respective region are applicable.
20-10-02-A3-CR02 2012-10 Electrical energy 1‐13

The check must be carried out by a skilled electrician. It con-
tains among other things the following actions:
■ visual check, e.g. state of the ground wire and its connection
point.
■ checking the ground wire resistance.
■ measurement of the insulation resistance is technically not
possible.
− Due to EMC measures the values are below the value
demanded in the standard DIN VDE 0702
(see chapter "Installation conditions, transport", section
"Electrical connected loads").
− A measurement of the ground wire current (however no
subsistuted measurement of leakage current) must be
carried out alternatively instead of the measurement of
the insulation resistance.
Fuses Use only original fuses with the specified characteristics and cur-
rent rating.
Voltage when main switch is Some components are still under dangerous voltage, even if the
off main switch is in position OFF. Therefore check first that the
parts that you will touch are dead.
Energy storages The discharge time of energy storages (capacitors) may be more
than 1 minute. Check the parts which are live during operation
for the presence of voltage, also after having switched off the
machine. Start the work on live parts only after you have
checked that their power supply has been cut off.

3. 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:

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!

6. Location and function of the safety
devices
Safety devices at the laser device are:

■ EMERGENCY STOP pushbutton.
■ Optical shutters, shutter switches and the corresponding
safety circuits
■ Laser warning lamps.
■ Key-operated switch.
6.1 EMERGENCY STOP pushbutton
E-Stop pushbuttons are located:

■ on the operating panel.
■ on the control panel (option).
■ on the front of the laser device.
EMERGENCY STOP pushbutton (arrows) Fig. 1-2
Operating the "E-Stop" pushbutton immediately stops all compo-

nents of the laser device which can be dangerous. In particular,
no laser light may be emitted any longer after having operated
the E-Stop pushbutton.
Note
The operating panel should be attached in a place, where it can
easily be reached from the operator's position. This guarantees
that the EMERGENCY STOP pushbutton can be pressed imme-
diately in case of an emergency situation.
Further pushbuttons Further E-Stop pushbuttons can be additionally connected to the

laser device. Integration of the E-Stop circuit of the laser device
20-10-02-A3-CR02 2012-10 Location and function of the safety devices 1‐19

in an E-Stop circuit of the system is also possible. For further
information, see the interface description for E-Stop.
Checking the function Check the function of the EMERGENCY STOP push buttons if
you have modified the EMERGENCY STOP circuit of the laser
device. TRUMPF cannot be held liable for any damage resulting
from the incorrect wiring of the EMERGENCY STOP circuit.
Operating panel without Do not connect an operating panel with pushbutton E-STOP
pushbutton E-STOP to the laser device if the laser device was previously oper-
ated by means of an operating panel without E-STOP push-
button. In this case, the E-STOP pushbutton has no func-
tion.
6.2 Safety circuits
The control of the laser device contains interfaces for safety cir-
cuits (SIK).
What is a safety circuit? A safety circuit is an electric circuit used for monitoring the pro-
tective 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 entire systems to be operated as class 1

laser devices.
ASV board Each safety circuit is connected to an ASV board, which is loca-
ted in the control of the laser device. The ASV board controls
the optical shutter, which prevents the emission of laser light
when the safety circuit is open.
ASV: Operating and safety shutter (German for: Arbeits- und
Sicherheits-Verschluss.)
Function The following picture shows the basic function of a safety circuit.

Work function In the picture above the safety circuit is closed. The laser
operates according to the running laser program or is controlled
manually by the operator.
Safety function In the figure below, the safety circuit is open because the door
of the protective cabin was opened. The shutter is changed to
CLOSED position via the ASV board in the control unit. No laser
light is emitted at the processing point anymore.

"Safety" of the operator’s manual, section „Electric energy“.
2‐20 Electrical connected loads 2012-10 20-10-02-A3-CR02

If you would like to operate the laser device with mains voltages
other than mentioned above, you must use a series transformer.
Contact TRUMPF, if you need further information on this subject.
5.1 Electrical connection
The laser device is optionally delivered with a mains cable (con-

nector CEE 63 A to DIN EN 60309).

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. Specifi-
cations for the connection of the lines are to be found in the
interface description „Interfaces of the laser devices“.
The laser device is only suited 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 permitted insulation resistance for this laser type is given in
(see "Tab. 2-2", pg. 2‐19). If the value does not fall below the
value defined, the laser device can be registered as "OK".
20-10-02-A3-CR02 2012-10 Electrical connection 2‐21

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 a TRUMPF laser device has an insulation resistance < 1 MΩ
during the regular check of the electrical devices, proceed as fol-
lows:
Check regularly 1. Check the minimum permitted insulation resistance of the

laser device (see "Tab. 2-2", pg. 2‐19).
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 of the lower value and repeat the measure-
ment.
A cause could be that after delivery, a modification affecting
the insulation resistance has been made to the laser device.
or
Ø If you cannot find the cause or if it is not possible to
eliminate it, contact the TRUMPF service department.
The contact details (telephone number, etc.) of the serv-
ice department can be found on the first page of the
operating instructions of the laser device.

Determining dimensioning
data
Example Fig. 2-18
Note
Dimension the tube system for the external cooling water so
that the required differential pressure is applied directly at 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 with maximum power
consumption at 20℃ supply temperature 1.9 m³/h.
3. Read off the pressure difference applicable for this flow
quantity between supply and return of the cooler at its char-
acteristic curve (Fig. "Example" right).
- In the example: 1.5 bar.
4. TRUMPF recommends to consider a factor of safety of 0.5
bar in order to compensate a slight soiling of the filter and
measuring inaccuracies on site.
To ensure the function of the internal solenoid valves, the
minimum pressure difference of 1.5 bar must be reached!
The determined values for the water requirement and the pres-
sure loss are dimensioned in such a way that the laser device
works reliably. If you operate the laser device with smaller val-
ues, you reduce the control reserve of the cooler. The conse-
quence may be that monitoring and fault messages are often
displayed due to overtemperature. The operation of the laser
device is interrupted by the messages.

ded with dust and aerosols, TRUMPF recommends to surround
the laser device by a structural containment which protects the
laser against influences of the environment also when it is
opened.
Dew point If warm and humid air reaches cold surfaces, condensation
water is formed at certain temperatures. This condensation water
can lead to faults of the electrical and optical components or
even to their failure.
Therefore, for avoiding condensation water, it is required that the
ambient conditions at the laser device are within certain limits.

3. Optical arrangement
Fig. 3-3
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.
The components of the optical arrangement are mostly accom-
modated in transparent plastic cases. Between the components
there are metal beam guard elements of 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.
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
"Components of the optical arrangement", pg. 3‐9) .

Further information on the functions of the optical arrangement
components is written below.

Central shutter (VZ)
DW-80008
1 Mirror moved out of beam 3 Absorber 5 Laser beam enabled

guideway 4 Mirror in beam guideway
2 Laser beam blocked
Fig. 3-5
The central shutter allows to block the laser beam emission (pic-
ture A) or enable it (picture B) for all light paths.
If the laser beam is enabled, it passes through the central shut-
ter as shown in partial picture B. If the laser beam is blocked,
the central shutter guides the laser beam into the absorber (3)
where it is transformed into heat.
At zero current, the central shutter blocks the light path.
20-10-02-A3-CR02 2012-10 Components of the optical arrangement 3‐9

The central shutter has two functions:
Operating function In the operating function the central shutter is controlled by oper-
ator-originated commands or laser programs as long as the
safety circuit is closed.
Safety function When the safety circuit is interrupted, the central shutter is
immediately closed. This is also performed if the signal for open-
ing is sent by the operator or the running laser program.
Information about functioning and wiring of the safety circuit is to
be found in the interface description safety circuit ASV.

DW-80015
1 Laser beam blocked 3 Absorber 5 Mirror moved out of beam
2 Mirror in beam guideway 4 Laser beam enabled guideway
Fig. 3-6
The shutter can enable or lock an individual light path. When the
shutter enables the light path, the laser beam passes through it
as shown in picture B (see "Fig. 3-6", pg. 3‐10). When the shut-
ter closes the light path, the laser beam will be guided into an
absorber (picture A).
The light path controls the shutter. The light path can be adjus-
ted manually or by laser program.
When the shutter is controlled by an ASV board, it can be inte-
grated into a safety circuit. In this case it has not only an oper-
ating function, but also a safety function. What has been said
regarding the safety function for the central shutter will then also
apply analogously to the light path in which the shutter is loca-
ted.

The laser beam can be guided into one of two directions by

means of a beam switch.
If the mirror is in the beam guideway, the laser beam is deflec-
ted by 90° (picture B). If the beam is swiveled out of the beam
guideway, the laser beam passes through the beam switch in a
straight line (picture A).
The beam switch can be controlled by user commands or by
laser programs.

Shutter switch (VW1, VW2, ...) with pilot
laser
1 pilot laser 3 Pilot laser beam

2 Shutter switch mirror
Fig. 3-8
The casing of the shutter switch with pilot laser houses a semi-
conductor laser is (1). The semiconductor laser works as pilot
laser of the light path to which shutter switch is assigned. In con-
trast, the central pilot laser can be used in all light paths.
Advantage The pilot laser in the shutter switch can be used while the work-
ing laser light is being guided to a different light path. This
makes it possible to use the pilot laser at processing point, while
workpieces are being machined at a different point.
Switching on 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. 3-8", pg. 3‐12)).
To switch on the pilot laser on the user interface is described in
chapter "Operation".
Laser classes The pilot laser has been classified as a Class 3Rcomponent.
This must be taken into account when it is operated, for exam-
ple by the service, after removal from the unit.
In standard operation, the pilot laser light emitted from the
focussing optics outlet corresponds to class 2.
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 shut-
ter 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.
3-9", pg. 3‐14) (picture A). This also happens when a different
command comes from the operator or from the running laser
program.
Information about functioning and wiring of the safety circuit is to
be found in the interface description safety circuit ASV.
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. 3-9", 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.

Physical splitter with fixed splitting
ratio
DW-80010
Fig. 3-10
The beam splitter of fixed splitting ratio contains a partially trans-

mitting mirror which is positioned at a 45° angle to the beam
path. Part of the incident laser light (e.g. 50 %) is transmitted in
a straight line; the remaining laser light is deflected by 90°.
Deflection (U1, U2, ...)
Fig. 3-11
The deflection deflects the laser beam through 90° to the right or
left.

LEM deflection
Fig. 3-12
The LEM deflection deflects the laser beam via 2 mirrors by 90°.
An LEM can be attached to this deflection.
Power and energy measuring sensor (LEM)
Fig. 3-13
The LEM produces an electric signal which corresponds to the

momentary power of the laser. The power of the laser or the
energy of laser pulses can be determined by this.
The LEM is attached to the end mirror of the laser or to a
deflection of the optical arrangement. Through the end mirror, or

through the mirror of the deflection, a small part of the laser
power is coupled out and fed into the LEM.
If the laser device is provided with a laser power control, the
LEM measures the actual value of the laser power.
3.2 Selecting 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.
DW-80012
Light path determined by VW2 Fig. 3-14
In this figure, the mirror of shutter switch VW2 has been swiv-
eled into the beam guideway. At this point, the laser beam is
deflected by 90° and coupled into the laser light cable connec-
ted to this light path.
DW-80013
Light path determined by VW1 Fig. 3-15
In this figure, the mirror of shutter switch VW1 has been swiv-
eled into the beam guideway. At this point, the laser beam is
deflected by 90° and coupled into the laser light cable connec-
ted to this light path.
20-10-02-A3-CR02 2012-10 Selecting light path 3‐17

DW-80014
Light path in the absorber Fig. 3-16
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):
■ Via the 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 a laser out-

put and a double core laser light cable (LLK), it is possible to
select the core diameter of the LLK to be used to guide the laser
light 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.

Fig. 3-18
20-10-02-A3-CR02 2012-10 Wedge beam switch (option) 3‐19

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(9)is lit.
■ 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(10)is lit.
A scattered light sensor (8) measures the scattered light in the
wedge beam switch. If the scattered light increases due to a
dirty or defective wedge, monitoring or fault messages are dis-
played upon reaching the preset limit values. The laser is
switched off automatically if the measured scattered light rea-
ches the preset fault limit value.
Instead of a double-core LLK, a laser light cable with a fiber
core diameter of 100 µm can be used. The laser light cable with
a fiber core diameter of 100 µm is detected by the control sys-
tem, the position of the wedge beam switch cannot be changed.

4. Laser light cable
Fig. 3-22
Purpose The laser light cable is a flexible transmission medium for laser
beams. It allows spatial separation between laser and machining
station.
Design In the interior of the laser light cable there is light guide, which
guides the laser beam from the laser device to the focusing
optics. The light guide is surrounded by a plastic tube and a
steel casing. The steel casing protects the light guide from
mechanical stress. It limits the bending radius of the laser light
cable.
The steel casing is surrounded by an external plastic tube which
protects the laser light cable against environmental effects.
A safety device integrated into the laser light cable switches the
laser automatically off, when the optical wave 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 on the whole length. The laser
device switches off immediately and no more laser light may be
emitted if a fault occurs in the laser light cable.
The fit of the two optical plugs is monitored as well. If an optical
plug is loosened, the laser device immediately switches off.
The integrated monitoring of the laser light cable is connected
with the safety circuit of the laser device by means of the electri-
cal plug.
Laying the LLK Outside the laser cabin, laser light cables must be installed
permanently.
To do so, use:
■ Cable clamps
■ Cable ducts
■ Other appropriate auxiliaries for fastening cables.
Inside laser cabins which are monitored by a safety circuit,
laser light cables can be laid freely and loosely.

5. Focusing optics
Fig. 3-25
The focusing optics focuses the laser light onto the processing
point. The high power density required for the material process-
ing is generated thereby.
Focusing optics are composed of modules according to the
requirements of the respective task.
Further information is to be found in the operating manual of
your focusing optics.

BR-81044
Fig. 3-27
The control unit controls all functions of the laser device. Apart
from this, it monitors numerous operational values and reports
when a value is outside the permitted range.
The control unit contains interfaces to higher-ranking control
units. They allow an external control of the laser device. Further
information about this is to be found in chapter 2 of this manual
and in the interface descriptions.
Controlling The most important functions are:

■ Switching the laser on and off
■ Controlling the optical arrangement
■ Controlling the laser power
■ Communication with external units (e.g. PLC).
Monitoring The control unit also monitors the following operational values:
■ Laser power
■ Temperature of the coolants
■ Temperatures within the area of the laser and of the optical
arrangement
■ Condition of the laser light cable
■ Safety contacts at the processing points.
Messages If an operational value is outside the permitted range, the con-

trol unit generates a monitoring message or a fault message.
The message is displayed on the screen. When a malfunction
occurs, the control unit stops the operation of the laser until the
cause of the malfunction is eliminated.

In connection with light paths, the following actions are possible

under TruControl 1000:
■ Programming light paths
■ Editing light path names (see software manual TruControl
1000)
■ Selecting light paths (see software manual TruControl 1000).
■ Managing light paths (see software manual TruControl 1000).
Definitions Programming a light path means:

■ Defining the position of switch mirrors and shutter mirrors in
the optical arrangement.
■ Storing the information on mirror positions in a data record
for the light path.
TRUMPF has already programmed all possible light paths for the
optical arrangement of your laser device. Each light path leads
through a laser light cable to a processing point. Two or more
laser light cables may belong to one light path when optical split-
ters are used.
Editing light path names Every light path can be given a user name.
Please refer to the software manual TruControl 1000 for further
information on authorization and processing.
Programming light paths Programming light paths should be done exclusively by the
TRUMPF service technicians (from user level 70). This is only
necessary if the optical 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 (option)
A pilot laser is optionally provided in the laser device and sends

visible, red light with low power through the beam guideway.
This allows you to observe the light path and operations at the
processing point. When the pilot laser is switched on, the sym-
bol for the pilot laser is displayed in the message line.
Fig. 4-12

Switching on pilot laser When the pilot laser is switched on, is determined:
■ by the pilot laser mode set in the system settings.
■ by the shutter switch state (shutter switch closed or open).
■ by the state of the safety circuit (safety circuit interrupted or
closed).
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 are switched on or off for all
existing light paths. The pilot laser can be switched on or off for
individual light paths in the light path overview (see "Switching
the pilot laser in the light path on and off", pg. 4‐22).

MPI The Multi PLC Interface is a software interface of the laser

device for exchanging control signals with a maximum of 32
external control units. The external control units are connected
with the laser device through field bus components.
MPI can be used efficiently if the laser power of a laser device
has to be requested by various control units.
ILN The interface LaserNetwork contains signal lines for:

■ light path coding.
■ two-channel safety circuits.
Ethernet The laser device can be connected to other devices in a local

network (LAN) via Ethernet.
Detailed information can be found in the Technical Information
TRUMPF LaserNetwork and other documents available from

7. Laser
A pump unit which generates pumped light for excitation of the

laser is assigned to each cavity of the laser device.
Depending of the nominal power of the laser device, it is possi-
ble that not all locations on the pump unit are equipped with
pump modules. Instead of pump modules, there are dummy
modules inserted in the locations. You can easily recognize the
dummies since there are no cooling water hoses connected to
them.
Failure There are the following reasons for replacing pump modules:
■ A pump module has failed.
In this case, a fault message is displayed that specifies the
failed pump module.
The failed pump module is electrically bridged. Then you can
operate the laser device for a certain time. Replace the failed
pump module before expiry of the indicated time period. If
this time is over, the operation of the laser device can only
be continued after replacement of the failed pump module.
■ The pump light of a pump module is too low (for ex. reduced
performance at the end of service life). It is also possible that
several pump modules must be replaced due to aging.
This may be the case when a message is repeatedly dis-
played: "Controller action too high"
Qualification Pump modules may only be replaced by instructed persons.

Contact the TRUMPF Service Department, if you need further
information on this.
Order You must proceed in the indicated order.
7.1 Identifying the pump module
Before replacing a pump module, the pump module which has

failed or has become aged must be identified.
If a pump module has failed , a message is displayed on the
screen indicating the pump module which has failed. A failed
pump module can also be identified with the help of the operat-
ing software.
In general, an aged pump module is more difficult to identify.
The operator, depending on his training and experience, decides
which pump module must be replaced. A skilled user can iden-
tify the current performance data of the pump modules from the
diagnosis pages of the operating software.

pump module 3).
20-10-02-A3-CR02 2012-10 Laser 5‐17

Identifying the failed pump Note
module
In the background, the software of the laser device checks
permanently the condition of the pump modules. If a pump
module malfunction is detected, a message appears. The
message indicates the aged pump module which has been
detected.
If there are often messages indicating a high controller
action, this may be an indication of aged pump modules. In
this case, the diagnosis pages of the software have to be
evaluated to define the condition of the pump modules.
If you, as the user, are trained in the evaluation of the diag-
nosis pages, you can identify an aged pump module. Other-
wise, contact the TRUMPF Service Department.
4. Identify the failed pump module in the service dialog.
or
Ø Inform the TRUMPF service department.
The service department can determine a failed pump module
with the help of the telepresence.

8.1 Dismounting and Mounting of Laser

Light Cable
A laser light cable must be removed and fitted:

■ if you want to transport the laser device.
■ if you want to replace a laser light cable by another one, e.g.
with different length.
Note
Laser light cables are optical precision parts, which are pro-
duced with maximum accuracy and with observance of the
utmost cleanliness. During the use of the laser light cables,
avoid contamination and mechanical stress (shocks, impacts) of
the optical plugs.
LLK-Ds must be removed or mounted by instructed persons

only.
In the following cases, modification of the software configuration

of the laser device is required when changing laser light cables:
■ If standard laser light cables with a fiber core diameter
≥ 200 µm are exchanged against fibrillated fiber laser light
cables < 200 µm.
■ If fibrillated fiber laser light cables with a fiber core diameter
< 200 µm are exchanged against standard laser light cables
≥ 200 µm.
⇒ Please contact the technical service of TRUMPF so that a
service technician can carry out the changes.

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 which are live during operation, check
whether they are dead.
Ø Wear personal protective 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.
6‐2 Service interruptions 2012-10 20-10-02-A3-CR02

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.
20-10-02-A3-CR02 2012-10 Identifying causes 6‐3

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 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.

Number of the message The number corresponds to the message code which is sent
from the control to the operating panel. Via the display of the
message memory it is possible to call up the message text:
⇒ Select main activity Diagnostics.
The message memory is displayed.
Short message text The short text gives the operator one-line information on the
cause of the message.
Note
When a monitoring is displayed you can still operate the laser
device. You should eliminate the cause at the next opportunity. If
you do not remedy the cause, it may be possible that a moni-
tored operational value exceeds the fault limit in the near future
(see section Fault).
In case of a fault you can only continue to operate the laser
device, when the cause is eliminated..
3.2 Fault
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 deactivated automatically.
■ a fault message is displayed on the screen.
Fault message In the main dialog TruControl 1000 the red display "Fault" is illu-
minated.

Note
In case of malfunction, the laser device cannot be operated until
the cause of the malfunction has been eliminated and the laser
device has been reset. For more information on this, please refer
to the section “How to respond to messages” in chapter "Opera-
tion".
