Fiber Laser Marking Plastic

Can mark on reflective materials copper.

Fiber laser marking plastic. Direct ink printing puts an image on the surface of the plastic which can be removed by abrasion or solvents but laser marking can provide an indelible high contrast mark in the material itself with no. Mostly used to engrave metal anodized aluminum and plastic. Used for engraving jewelry rubber stamps name plate rating plate thermoplastic etc. Pulse repetition rate often referred to as pulse frequency and.

Laser marking machine of integration design affordable fiber laser marker for various types of metals and some plastics comes with laptop and standard lens for marking a range of 4 4 inch. When marking plastics using a fiber laser the term engraving is really not accurate since the laser doesn t remove any material. Pump power in percent 100 refers to the maximum possible electrical input to the pump diodes. Generally the fiber laser generates a white mark on any plastic base color.

Fibergrave is a modified acrylic material. It only changes the color of it. The co 2 laser is more often used for etching or engraving on the plastic. The laser choice will depend on the application requirements.

When setting up a variable short pulse mopa fiber laser for marking three inputs are set. When setting up a fixed pulse length fiber laser for marking two inputs must be set. Fiber based laser engraving machine. Fiber laser marking of plastics laser marking is fundamentally different from ink printing the traditional method of marking on plastics.

The most popular lasers for plastic applications are the famous uv laser the green wave flypeak laser by lasit and the traditional green light laser with fiber optic source in most cases we recommend using a mopa laser meaning with variable pulse. Thanks to the pulse duration control this laser ensures maximum performance in the most difficult applications. Following technologies are available for laser engraving machines. Fiber lasers can also create different appearances when laser marking plastics which include foaming carbonizing and color changing.

According to how a material is engraved. Our plastic marking systems come in a variety of sizes so you can laser mark large parts one at a time or load the table with a jig of parts to engrave hundreds at once. Green laser engraving machines. Laser marking on plastic can be obtained with either a co 2 or a fiber laser source.

A fiber laser from epilog is the perfect choice for marking engineered plastic parts with barcodes serial numbers and logos.
