Open the Summer Flip Flops Design

Monitor the Laser Engraving Process

To avoid any issues, carefully monitor the laser engraving, especially when unusual conditions like alarms arise.

Considering the laser cutting energy, for safety reasons, we advise against staring directly at the process, even with the laser door closed.
