Modular Laser Safety Booth
Our modular laser safety booth is designed to provide a professional, configurable containment solution for industrial laser applications. The system uses rigid hardwall construction and can be sized around the equipment, access requirements, and viewing needs of the application.
Unlike our fully collapsible hardwall systems, this booth uses a more rigid modular design. The access door includes a dedicated handle and remains integrated into the structure, creating a more permanent, finished enclosure while still allowing the system to be configured to the required footprint.
The booth can be built in a wide range of sizes. Its modular construction uses approximately 25-inch-wide (2.08 ft) panels, allowing the overall enclosure dimensions to be adjusted in roughly 25-inch increments to better fit the laser equipment and available floor space.
Assembly is straightforward and typically takes approximately 10–15 minutes, depending on the size and configuration of the booth.
Laser safety viewing windows can be incorporated throughout the booth based on the requirements of the application. Our standard viewing-window size is 22.5 in × 11 in. The image shown features a larger custom viewing configuration and does not represent the standard window size.
For laser welding applications, the booth can also be configured with viewing windows that provide both laser protection and weld-flash attenuation, allowing operators to maintain visibility into the work area while addressing both hazards associated with the welding process. Window selection should be based on the laser wavelength, required optical density, and the weld-flash requirements of the application.
The booth can be configured with multiple standard-size windows, larger custom viewing areas, or a smaller localized viewing window in the access door when extensive visibility is not required. This makes it possible to balance visibility, containment, and cost based on how operators actually interact with the laser system.
Configuration options include:
-
Custom booth dimensions in approximately 25-inch (2.08 ft) increments
- Integrated access door with handle
-
Typical assembly time of approximately 10–15 minutes
-
Standard 22.5 in × 11 in laser viewing windows
- Larger or custom window sizes where appropriate
- Window placement in the access door or individual wall sections
- Multiple laser safety window materials
-
Laser welding windows providing laser protection plus weld-flash attenuation. Confirm windows have weld flash protection.
- Standard Class 4 or laser welding safety signage
- Configurations designed around the footprint of the laser equipment and work area
Access & Equipment Movement
The integrated door is designed as a single-person entryway for normal operator access. Systems can be configured with multiple doors if additional entry points are needed.
For moving larger equipment in or out of the enclosure, the booth does not have to rely on the personnel door. The wheeled barrier sections can be unlocked and repositioned, creating a much larger temporary opening for equipment access. Once the equipment is in place, the sections can be returned to position and locked back together.
This provides the convenience of a dedicated personnel door for everyday use while still allowing the enclosure to open up when larger machinery, tooling, or workpieces need to be moved through the space.
Laser safety windows must be selected based on the laser wavelength, required optical density, and application-specific exposure conditions. The laser user is responsible for confirming that the selected window and containment system are appropriate for the application. Always consult your on-site Laser Safety Officer (LSO) when selecting laser safety containment and viewing materials.
