Launchpad for shield
April 1st 2008 Diversified technology
company, 3M, will unveil at
MACH 2008 the latest
product in its range of
Speedglas welding shields.
Many welding and cutting
procedures emit dangerous
light radiation that can
cause damage to the eyes.
The Speedglas autodarkening
filters mean that
the wearer maintains good
vision while being protected
from harmful UV and IR
radiation.
In addition to providing
high levels of protection,
comfort and visibility, the
welding shields are said to
eliminate neck-strain caused
by nod-down and increase
the accuracy of electrode
placement. This helps
improve the quality of the
weld, reducing the need for
grinding and re-work.
3M will have a significant
presence at MACH 2008. As
well as the new welding
helmet, the company will
showcase its abrasive
products and new airpowered
abrasive tool line.
