- CO2 laser marking systems are part of the gas laser group: the laser beam is generated in an enclosed laser tube which is filled with carbon dioxide
- optical beam deflection: flexibly mounted mirrors guide the bundled light beam over the product surface - thus resulting in the marking effect
- marking is applied on both mobile and immobile products
- often the laser system will subsequently be integrated with existing production systems
- laser systems have a decisive advantage: they are free of consumables and virtually maintenance free
- subsequent costs are minimal! Can you think of another coding and marking system that can run for 6000 working shifts without maintenance?
- complete design freedom in creating text, graphics, and drawings
- intellectual property protection and traceability, ensured by the permanence of the coding and marking
Typical application areas for the CO2 laser
- cardboard boxes, for example in such industries as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and foodstuffs
- glass marking (vehicle, lab, drinks, lifestyle products)
- wood (packaging, ice cream sticks, furniture, laminate)
- engraving on plastics, color marking on PVC
- layered substrates, such as anodized aluminum
- direct marking of foodstuffs
- marking on laser color change covered surface
- marking of soot particle filters and headlight reflectors
