Frequently Asked Questions
Was sind der safety considerations für machining beryllium copper?
Beryllium copper in fest form ist sicher zu handle. However, machining operations das generate fine dust oder fumes (grinding, welding, EDM) require ventilation und dust collection because airborne beryllium particles sind toxic wenn inhaled. Immer follow OSHA PEL (0.2 µg/m³) und verwenden ordnungsgemäß engineering controls.
