Fiber Laser Marking Plastic

Generally the fiber laser generates a white mark on any plastic base color.

Fiber laser marking plastic.

Fiber based laser engraving machine. Used for engraving jewelry rubber stamps name plate rating plate thermoplastic etc. 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.

Thus a more accurate term would be to mark the material. A fiber laser from epilog is the perfect choice for marking engineered plastic parts with barcodes serial numbers and logos. Following technologies are available for laser engraving machines. Mostly used to engrave metal anodized aluminum and plastic.

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. Fiber laser marking of plastics laser marking is fundamentally different from ink printing the traditional method of marking on plastics. Can mark on reflective materials copper. When marking plastics using a fiber laser the term engraving is really not accurate since the laser doesn t remove any material.

Thanks to the pulse duration control this laser ensures maximum performance in the most difficult applications. Pulse repetition rate often referred to as pulse frequency and. Co2 based laser engraver. It only changes the color of it.

According to how a material is engraved. Fibergrave is a modified acrylic material. Green laser engraving machines. Pump power in percent 100 refers to the maximum possible electrical input to the pump diodes.

The laser choice will depend on the application requirements. Laser marking on plastic can be obtained with either a co 2 or a fiber laser source. Fiber lasers can also create different appearances when laser marking plastics which include foaming carbonizing and color changing. 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.

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.
