6 Benefits Of Using Laser Marking Machine For Jewelry

laser marking machine

Over the past decade, laser marking machines have revolutionized the jewelry industry. We see a constant increase in jewelry businesses that utilizing laser technology to offer bespoke and customized items for their customers. This article explores the benefits of laser technology and shows you some of the main advantages compared to traditional engraving methods.

Multipurpose

what is MOPA laser

Foremost, a single laser system can engrave multiple surfaces. That means that you only need to buy one laser marking machine to be able to engrave silver, gold, copper, titanium, brass and tons more applications. In fact, a fiber laser machine can also engrave non-metal surfaces, such as acrylic, plastic and wood.

The other benefit for jewelers is the application for individualizing and personalizeing different shaped items. So, whether you’re looking to engrave rings, bracelets, necklaces or watches; it can all be done with the same machine! The only restriction is the size of your machine’s marking area. Although that is typically not a concern, as jewelry items tend to be small in size.

Versatile

You can create virtually any design, no matter how complex, and have it successfully engraved onto your jewelry item. Even the smallest of designs remains legible when marked with a laser beam.

Thanks to its versatility, Jewelry designers use the laser machine for countless applications. Whether it’s engraving a photo onto a pendant; adding a unique pattern to a ring; branding jewelry with a logo for corporate events; or personalizing a necklace with a heart-warming message – the possibilities are endless.

Non-contact

The fiber laser machine uses a non-contact marking method. Essentially, a laser beam is directed onto the item’s surface and produces a mark by removing the material. As a result, there is no contact between the laser equipment and the jewelry item.

Since there is no contact during the engraving process. The jewelry is never compromised with engraved by fiber laser machine. Additionally, the machine doesn’t have moving parts, which can wear down over time and require replacement.

What is Laser Engraving of the Engine?

It has become an essential part of the manufacturing and automotive industry as it assists businesses to keep check of their products, minimize simulating, develop quality and more. There are good numbers of benefits for engraving in industries for helping understand the perspective behind this technology. The laser technology is one of the most amazing applications to involve with. The major problem found was information regarding engine build for investigation in case any failures occurred. The idea was to install a 2D code onto the engine casing, conversely, this would need multiple engraving techniques to mount at the plant.

The Engraving Process is Clean and Eco-Friendly:

Chemical Engraving or Inkjet like processes use inks and chemicals in engraving that have a negative effect on the surroundings apart from being costly consumables for the industries. The Laser Engraving, on the other hand, is way far from using any kind of consumables that makes it reasonable, clean and energy competent. It also excludes downtime and costs related to fixing, cleaning or fueling printers. The products might also get damaged over time due to peel off, tearing or any other reason. But laser engraving helps the permanent engraving to remain really long, supporting the brand and quality in the industry.

Laser engraving promises clean processing at least adulteration since the process cannot contacted. Where printing techniques will lead to burning down of the material by engraved, the damage-free process includes no or least material dissemination.

The Engraving Procedure:

  • Laser engraving is the result of when beam comes into contact with the material surface, slightly modifying its features or presentation.
  • Obtained by moving a low-mechanical beam gradually across the material using a technique called staining, that produces high-contrast marks without troubling the material.
  • Laser raises the material temperature that causes oxidation below the surface and turning the material black.
  • The laser engrave applies low temperatures to metal to toughen the surface.
  • All of this is done while leaving the surface undamaged.

Laser engraving is unique from laser etching and laser engrave in a number of ways:

  • It is a rare process and not all places provide these services.
  • Also known as laser dark engraving or laser coloration, and also charring for plastic materials and strengthening for metals.
  • There are 4 collective types of laser engrave: carbon migration, annealing, coloration, and
  • It is very common in the medical device industry for titanium parts and stainless steel but can executed on other materials too.
  • A laser marker is perfect for barcodes, QR codes, UID codes, logos and other recognition needs.

Which industries use Laser Engraving?

When investing the laser, it was one of the best creations and gained early recognition for its usefulness in different industries. But the laser engraving has given modern reach to the flourishing companies by promoting their brand name and assurance for quality.

  • Automotive
  • Aerospace
  • Electronics
  • Industrial & Tooling
  • Medical
  • Military & Defense
  • Oil & Gas and more…

For the automotive industry and motorized industries, companies extensively make use of laser engraving on the engines. It is the recognition for their appreciation of every automotive manufacturing entity. Every industry uses the laser for different purposes. For instance, the manufacturing companies understand the importance of product branding and therefore. They mostly make use of laser engraving on their products and gain recognition in the industry. Not only for the laser engraving but also for laser engraving and etching, business widely apply these techniques.

Mopa fiber laser marker, stainless steel color laser marking machine-jill

Mopa fiber laser marker is more and more popular in the laser marker market now.

Today we would like to share more about mopa working information.

 

1.Mopa fiber laser marker

Firstly,we should konw: Fiber laser marker has usual q-switch type and mopa type.

Both can mark on almost all metal.

Mopa can do all the work of Raycus.

 

Mopa mainly has 3 advantage.

1)Firstly,mark color on stainless steel.

2)Secondly,Mark black color on anodized aluminum

3)Thidly,Mark on plastic with a better effect

 

2.Secondly,Mopa laser source

You can do research in China market.
The most popular color marking laser source is Mopa JPT.

 

3.Color series

For color marking series,JPT has M1+ and M6+,20w and 30w.

 

4.Difference between M1+ and M6+ 

The main difference is in adjustable pulse width.
M1+: 6-200ns
M6+: 2-200ns
Single pulse energy is 0.5mj and frequency is 1-2000KHz.

You can see,M6+ has wider range.
So it has wider color range and the color effect can be brighter.
If customer has strict color demand,u can suggest M6+.

5.Watt

Generally speaking,for color marking,
we always suggest 20w M1+ to customer.
But color marking speed is slow.
If you need faster speed ,or want a little deep engraving too,u can choose 30w.

 

6.Mopa and Q-Switch (Raycus,IPG)

Same:1064nm wavelength laser beam
Difference:
Mopa———Pulse width (2-200ns), Pulse frequency (1-2000HZ) , so MOPA laser is more flexible.
Q-Switch—- Pulse width and pulse frequency are fixed, can not be changed. 
Pulse width (110-150ns),Pulse frequency(30-100 kHz)

Mopa can do all the Raycus‚ work.
Mopa  > Raycus

the ways chose a good Co2 laser marking machine-lisa

Two types of CO2 laser tube are available as DC or RF excited CO2 laser tube. Direct current (DC) lasers is glass tube. Inside this glass tube is a mixture of gases, carbon dioxide, helium, nitrogen, hydrogen and xenon. Electrical energy is sent through the tube. This energy excites the gases resulting in a direct electrical discharge. The discharge creates a laser beam that bounces back and forth until a certain level of energy is attained, then the laser beam exits at one end.  This infrared beam is invisible but powerful and once focused can be used to cut or engrave various materials.

An alternative way to transfer energy into the gas is through radio frequency (RF). We called the RF tube technology as “metal” tubes. RF excitation produces a pulsed laser with an extremely quick repeatability. Unlike the parallel discharge in a DC excited tube, the RF laser discharges perpendicular to the resonator.

It is very necessary to understand the pros and cons of each laser when making decision to buy Co2 laser marking machine.

Cost: DC lasers made of glass are roughly 10% of the price of RF lasers. This cost advantage is a result of a lower technology and manufacturing cost.

Cutting Performance: Both lasers maintain very high quality cuts. The edge quality is very similar. While, because RF lasers are pulse, some materials may show a slightly rough edge. This is evident in acrylics.  this difference in quality is hardly noticeable to most users.

Engraving Performance: RF lasers generate a smaller spot out of the output window of the laser. The smaller the spot size, the finer the engraving detail. For high precision engraving, this smaller spot size makes a difference. There are many applications where this advantage in quality will not make itself apparent.

Longevity: RF lasers last 4-5 times longer than DC lasers. This longevity can help offset the initial higher cost of the RF laser. You can refill it with the gas inside RF tube, but this process can be more expensive than the replacement cost of new DC laser.

Laser Power: If you were to compare a 100W RF to a 100W DC tube then assuming all things are equal – the power is the same. However, RF power focuses that same energy into a more dense smaller spot. The quality and stability of that beam is better as well. For detailed etching, RF can offer that advantage. However, with cutting you can afford to buy much more cutting power compared to the cost of RF. So, determining what you will be using your laser for will help you make that decision.

Overall, if you’re looking for a Co2 laser marking machine, please chose RF laser tube.

fiber laser marking machine applicated on the surgical tools engraving

Laser marking machine, Because there are thousands of equipment, devices, and tools in hospitals and medical facilities which make it possible for staff and doctors to go about their jobs every day. Identifying each one of them and putting them to their purposed use is very important and that is why they have to be marked.

Marking safeguards the safety of patients, keeps members of staff accountable, makes it easy for the maintenance team to service medical equipment, helps the procurement department to procure the right equipment and at the right time, and keeps the details of the manufacturer.On the whole, Marking Machine saves everyone’s time and keeps medical facilities and hospitals running smoothly.

Laser Marking

Evenhere are various ways of marking equipment, but it is superior. Laser marking is the use of laser beams to label equipment, tools, devices, parts and materials. Unlike stickers and such, it is durable. It never wears out. It weathers abrasive chemicals, moisture, heat and other harsh conditions known to ruin the other kinds of labelling

Why Laser Marking is Important

In 2013, Food and Drugs Association (FDA) made laser marking of medical equipment mandatory. Because all the medical equipment needs to be identified and traced. The FDA requires that the marks are clear and the text can be readable by the machine and human beings

Unique Device Identification

The FDA requires that all medical equipment bear a Unique Device Identification (UDI). This assigned “unique identifier” carries with it the name of the manufacturer. The make or model of the product, expiry date – if applicable and unique attributes if any.

The government issues guidelines on marking equipment with unique identifiers, and these marks nearly suits the usage in some small tools in the medical field, so it is compulsory.

How to Laser Mark

Laser  marking can mark not only on plastic or metals selected and specified  but also on materials like foil and laminate . Contrary to other forms of labelling, it does not involve any contact. Because the material or surface determines the type of laser mark .

1.1 You can edit the simple Graphics, text, numbers, etc directly in the EzCad2.0 software (refer to the Golden Orange Software Manual for specific editing methods).
1.2 And editComplex graphics firstly in CorelDRAW 9 software. After completion, then output the PLT format file  and directly input the PLT format in EzCad2.0 software.

2.The settings of each parameters-fiber laser marking machine

2.1. Select the current pen number (the pen number can be edited freely).
2.2. Generally, if you do not select the default parameters, you can remove them in the default parameter selection box.
2.3. In the parameters, except speed (mm/s), power (%), frequency (khz). The other parameters are unchanged.
2.4. Speed: Generally adjusted within 100mm/s~500mm/s, the speed is slow and the printing time is long, the output energy is large, and the marking is deeper and heavier.

5. Power: Adjust between 10% and 90%. The higher the hardness of the corresponding printed substance, the higher the adjustment power.
6. Frequency: Adjust within 20 khz~80 khz, increase the frequency, and the marking will become lighter and lighter. On the contrary, the frequency is reducing, and the engraving becomes darker and heavier.

3.The adjustment of marking distance and position for marked object-fiber laser marking machine

3.1. Determine the position of the stage: Under the marking head, there is a stage that can move left and right in the horizontal direction. According to the substance to be printed, the horizontal position of the stage is determined by rotating the shaft.
3.2. Adjust the optical distance 18.3cm: There is a vertical direction control button on the back of the engraving chassis. The uppermost one is the up and down movement OK button, the dial up is up, the down is down; on the green side, the top is Fast (thick) movement, the following is slow (fine) movement; measured with a measuring tool, adjust the distance between the surface of the imprinted object and the engraving machine lens to the best marking distance of 18.3cm.

4. Marking

4.1. Turn on the laser marking machine and start the marking machine.

4.2. Open the EzCad2.0 software and then open the previously edited graphics, text, numbers, and so on. If there are multiple places to mark, select (S) to select the processing option.

4.3. Confirming the marking position according to the red light.

Normally there’s a little difference between red light position and marking position, thus the marking position is on the left lower than red light

4.4. After confirming the error, press the marking button to mark (shortcut key: red light (F1), marking (F2), marking can also use the marking button on the marking machine, you can also use the foot device). Among them, if it is design imprinting, it is necessary to repeatedly use the test article to mark, change the parameters, to achieve the best, save the design documents for future use; if the engraved imprint design, carefully observe, check, accurately mark

Details introduction of JPT series laser source

The lasers of the JPT LP series belong to the mopa structure
The internal structure of a pulsed fiber laser is divide into two types:
1.MOPA structure (MOPA structure is divide into pulse width non-adjustable LP series and pulse width adjustable M, LM series)
2.Q-switched structure

JPT JPT MOPA
(Pulse width non-adjustable LP series) The advantages of lasers over other brands‘ Q-switched (pulse width non-adjustable) are as follows:
Take pulse width 20w as an example

1.First pulse available
(The first pulse of Q switch is not available, you need to wait for the first time after the power is turn on)

2.Zero delay for marking
(Q-switching has a delay, so it is not suitable for marking on the assembly line)

3. No light leakage during marking
(There will be light leakage in the front, middle and rear sections of Q adjustment. Observation with a magnifying glass will show that the uniformity of the marking is inconsistent)

4. Wider frequency range, higher efficiency and faster.
Such as pipeline marking, the higher the frequency, the faster the speed and the higher the efficiency (Jeep’s adjustable 1-600khz, Q-adjusted 20-80khz)

5. Single point of energy is stronger
(Jepert is 0.8mj, Q is 0.6mj, mj value affects the marking efficiency, the higher the mj value, the higher the efficiency)

6. The light spot is smaller, metal and plastic can be marked, and the text and patterns marked on the plastic will be more clear and delicate.

JPT LP (pulse width is not adjustable) and LM1 (pulse width is adjustable) series are used for deep metal carving, sheet welding, cutting, surface paint removal, high power laser cleaning and rust removal.
The difference between the pulse width is not adjustable and adjustable. After the pulse width is adjustable, you can modify the shading and the border to modify the burrs. The pulse width is not adjustable and cannot be modified. The carving is relatively rough.

Metal laser making (2) – Elena

/in /by

This section presents information that ranges from the principles of metal marking and processing to the advantages, grouped by the laser wavelength.
It presents examples of marking and optimal laser markers for a variety of materials such as aluminum, stainless steel, iron, copper, cemented carbide and gold plating.

Metal Absorption Rate

The following graph shows the different absorption rates of metallic materials with a green laser (532 nm) and a standard wavelength (1064 nm). There is no significant change in the absorption rate of iron (Fe), nickel (Ni) or aluminum (Al) when the wavelength is changed. However, the rate of absorption of gold (Au) and copper (Cu) is greatly affected by changes in wavelength. The absorption rate for gold (Au) with wavelengths of 532 nm is approximately 30%. But with the standard wavelength of 1064 nm the absorption rate is less than 10%. Similarly, with a wavelength of 532 nm, copper (Cu) has an absorption rate of 40%, while that rate is less than 10% with the standard wavelength of 1064 nm.

Aluminum

Annealed black marking

On aluminum surfaces, the black annealing marking appears as a very visible dark gray. The heat is applied to the metal surface with a laser to generate an oxide film. So it can makes the dark gray.

Selection factor

Aluminum has a higher reflectance than iron or stainless steel, so select a laser with a high peak power. For aluminum materials, laser markers with the standard wavelength (1064 nm) are optimal. Keep the spot diameter of the small beam and mark with a high energy density, keeping the laser beam focused to achieve a beautifully colored mark.

White marking

White marking is achieved by slightly etching the surface of the material.
The roughing of the metal surface causes a diffuse reflection of the light, resulting in a white marking.

Selection factor

Increasing power and setting a faster sweep speed allows users to stably mark targets, and under a wide range of conditions. As with the black marking, the laser markers with the standard wavelength are optimal.

Deep engraving

This method allows users to record and mark without coloring, similar to stamping. Deeper engravings are possible by multiple markings. Deep engraving offers several advantages, such as ensuring visibility, even after applying paint at the end of marking.

Selection factor

For engraving, a fiber laser with a long pulse duration is better to melt and vaporize the marked surface. In some cases, dialing several times in the same place quickly will provide a clearer marking, than dial slowly. Marking at a lower frequency and with higher pulse energy makes engraving easier.

How can we choose a laser cutting machine

How can we choose a laser cutting machine

Usually we classify laser cutting machines according to the type of laser. So how can we classify according to the structure of the laser cutting machine ?

Firstly. the lasers configured by the equipment should  select according to the user’s processing performance, processing materials, shape, size, etc. The available lasers are available as co2 axis fast current laser, RF board debugging laser, cyclone laser, solid. Lasers and fiber lasers, etc.

Secondly. from the driving mode of the equipment, the X and Y axes use the single-side servo motor to configure the corresponding reducer.

And use the high-precision rack and pinion drive structure; the X-axis bilaterally selects the servo motor to configure the corresponding reducer.

High-precision rack and pinion drive structure, with double gears to eliminate backlash drive; servo motor with high-precision ball screw for direct drive, disc-type large inertia motor direct gear, rack drive; and linear motor Direct drive structure.

Thirdly. The guide rails of  laser cutting machines are usually equipping with high-precision linear guides and equipped with automatic lubrication devices. The single-sided linear guide rail is equipping with a roller structure, which is a typical structure with good cost-effectiveness and convenient adjustment; the other structure is a drive unit structure that directly adopts the combination of drive and guide rails, which is easier to install and debug. More convenient, accuracy is easy to guarantee, but the cost is higher.

 To sum up

The steel production unit processes a large amount of metal materials every day. Among them, the cutting operation is one of the most common processing methods. When cutting metal materials, professional equipment is generally use, which ensures that the material cutting effect conforms to the production and processing. Requirements can also make the cutting operation more precise and reasonable. There are many types of cutting machines, and fiber laser cutting machines are one of them.
