Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a suction device configured for a laser processing machine with a laser processing head which can be moved over a workpiece holder, with a fan and several flaps which are to be opened selectively to generate an air flow and which are in communication with the fan, and with a control configured to detect the position and operating state of the laser processing head and to control the flaps as a function of the detected position and the operating state of the laser processing head.
