Purex Extractors

Investing in a high-quality GCC laser machine is a significant step toward precision and productivity. However, operating a laser creates a byproduct that is often overlooked until it becomes a problem: the plume. Whether you are cutting acrylic, engraving wood, or marking metals, the process generates a complex mixture of microscopic particles and gases.

Many operators rely on simple exhaust fans or open windows, assuming that if the smoke clears, the danger is gone. Unfortunately, the real threat is what you can't see. To fully protect your staff and your expensive equipment, a dedicated source-capture system is essential. This is why Purex fume extractors are the industry standard for professional laser setups.

The "Invisible" Threat: What’s Really in Your Laser Fumes?

The visible smoke from a laser is just the tip of the iceberg. The thermal decomposition of materials releases a hazardous cocktail of contaminants.
