FDA 21 CFR compliant Laser Warning Label Generator!

[Trevor]

I've recently given my laser warning label generator at Safe Lasers - Laser safety information and free warning labels. an overhaul.

I went out and found the requirements for laser warning labeling (here) so I could modify my warning label generator accordingly. I'm going to put together a "Laser Radiation Emitted from this Aperture" template soon.

I made a few key changes. Firstly, it defaults to red as the beam color on the label (this is per 21 CFR requirements) unless you specify otherwise. It has two inputs for wavelength: one for the plaintext wavelength to display on the label, and one to describe the beam color on the label. This allows labels to be generated for things like multiline Argon systems, whitelight Krypton systems, and projectors (you can enter things like 457-528).

The "system type" field now has a text box to enter a custom system type. This allows the generator to support things like "Diode/DPSS."

Standard label:

Pulsed laser:

Multiline laser:

Projector:

Hopefully this will be more helpful to more people.

I really appreciate this good contribution of yours.:gj:
I have been using the previous version and I'm glad we have this great tool free for all to use.

Now I just need to find a good 'cheap' place to make foil labels. heh

Wouldn't be the same but you could try:

I've already read that, but thanks anyway, heh. :beer:

Nice but there's still something I would like to see on that generator. To atleast be able to toggle the spaces between the power reading and the mW (just look at these pics if that sentence doesn't make any sence

Current:

No spaces:

idk if its just me but I think it looks more "professional" without the spaces

This is a nice label maker, made one for my 445nm and taped it on, Maybe someday I'll get around to making on more professional like in the post above.

An excellent addition to a great label making tool. This should really help lots of members.
Thanks +1Rep :wave:
I simply print these onto regular adhesive sheets on my ink-jet printer for a very professional looking label.

thanks for the update, when I first found this generator I spent about an hour making ridiculous warnings
+1 from me.
