Will You Get Silicosis If You Are Engaged In Cnc Processing Of Insulating Materials (Fiberglass Board) For A Long Time

[Esperanza Goudy]

Hello, it's possible that

General masks are useless and there is no way to prevent dust

remember this

for details, please refer to the article "pneumoconiosis knowledge base (XVIII) whether cotton gauze masks can prevent dust"

the standard for the allocation of labor protection articles (Trial) issued by the State Economic and Trade Commission in 2000 clearly stipulates that "gauze masks shall not be used as dust masks". Because the general cotton gauze mask can only block part of the dust. Its dust blocking principle is mechanical filtration, that is, when the dust collides with the gauze, it passes through layers of barriers to block some large particles of dust in the sand cloth
however, some fine dust, especially dust less than 5 microns, will pass through the mesh of gauze and enter the respiratory system. Dust less than 5 microns can directly enter the alveoli, which has the greatest impact on human health. Wearing more layers will not enhance the protective effect. Therefore, the cotton gauze mask cannot play the role of dust prevention.

wear protective glasses or face shield
the dust of fiberglass board comes from filler and resin powder
a better CNC has a dust suction device. Rochling's CNC must use a dust suction device to process fiberglass board

I have been engaged in the milling machine technology of hardware manufacturing industry for more than ten years, but now I have processed several materials: "solid flying debris will be produced in the processing of several materials above fiberglass board, which will have smoke with the thermal effect of milling operation processing. You should wear protection,
