Laser Filtration Unit Fire
A report in the Reedsburg Times, Wisconsin, published on 6th December 2007 reads of a filtration device catching fire on a laser cutting machine at Seats inc. The laser machine was being used to cut sheets of steel that were seperated by pieces of paper, when the laser passed over the paper it ignited, the burning paper was immediately sucked through the filtration device causing 10 filters to perish in flames! A rare occurance no doubt, but which deserved a mention.
