The application of UV laser marking machine

This article is about the application of  UV laser marking machine.

The UV laser machine  is a technology very different from CO2 and Fiber laser technology.

Today we are going to explain the main differences between this technologies.

Cold laser engraving

Also knows as the blue laser beam, this technology has the capacity of engraving with a low rate of heat.

The light wave or UV light spectrum of this machine is one of the main reasons this technology can engrave over different materials.

Because it doesn’t heat the material surface as the Fiber and the CO2 does.

It allows the UV laser mark clear and with high precision over all the plastics and other materials that have an adverse reaction with heat.

Plastics

There are thousands of different mix of plastics, and all of them can be engraved for UV laser technology.

These are some of the most common plastics engraving with our laser engraver machine.

Metals

The UV laser it can engrave and mark metals, but not always with the same effect as the fiber laser engraver machine.

While a fiber laser can etch over the metal surface with deep effect and with a clear result.

The UV laser has problems engraving metals covered with painting, or metals highly reflective like the copper.

Check below the list of metals that the UV laser can engrave.

Glass

The UV laser is one of those technologies that can engrave over glass surfaces without a break or overheat the material.

You can create amazing engravings and patterns without splinter glass result.

The role of water cooling and air cooling in the marking machine–Sven

/in , /by

The laser marking machine has two cooling systems, water cooling and air cooling. Whether the cooling device is water or air  depends on the power of the device itself. The role of water cooling and air cooling in the marking machine is the same, both play a cooling role. working normally.

In fact, whether it is water or air, the laser marking machine transmitter and the Q drive are generally cooled. General high-power laser equipment, the heat emitted by the laser is relatively large, so use circulating water cooling. For optical fiber and low-power CO2, because their power is relatively small, the laser does not have much heat. Air cooling is not only condenses the volume of the device, but also reduces the power consumption

For example, the power of semiconductor laser marking machines is relatively large. Generally, The water-refrigerating capacity is larger than air cooling system.

Air-cooling is generally suitable for small power CO2 marking machines, fiber laser marking machines, UV marking machines and other small power, and the cooling capacity is also ideal. Generally, semiconductor laser marking machines have the white cold water To ensure that the equipment works properly.

And no matter water cooling and air cooling, pay attention to:

1. Semiconductor series laser marking machine, do not perform production and debugging without water tank running or waterless, because semiconductor series laser machine belongs to high temperature thermal processing, water-free damage may cause serious consequences.

2.Whether it is water or air,its necessory to remove the dirt inside the water tank or fan and do the regular cleaning work.This not only has a good operability for the laser marking machine, but also greatly improves the equipment life. Guaranteed smooth at work.

The Top 4 Benefits of UV Laser Marking

fiber laser marking machine tutorial (2)

Manufacturers are increasingly requiring identification marks on their products to help with traceability. While the traditional marking method is typically ink printing. It’s out of date already, especially in the medical industry as ink that often easily removed, altered, or contaminated. That’s why many manufacturers have begun to use ultraviolet lasers to mark their products.

Laser marking makes it easy to identify parts and authenticity without a physical tool etching the surface of the part or transmitting any substances onto the surface. Instead, the laser light focused onto a material, producing damage-free, easy-to-read marks. Apple Rubber uses laser marking to add model numbers, bar codes, logos and more onto customer’s o-rings and seals.

Here are the top four benefits of utilizing UV laser marking in your manufacturing facility:

1. Flexible processing

Laser marking also used on many products in a variety of industries, including aerospace, automotive, defense DOD, medical and electronic components. Apple Rubber uses laser marking on virtually any o-ring or seal where product identification required.

In many industries, product authenticity and traceability is required by law. Automotive companies, for example, use part traceability to quickly determine when and where the part produced in the case of component failure, which helps for product recalls. Because of the importance of product identification, using a flexible and reliable marking technique is critical.

2. Overall speed

In traditional ink marking, printing equipment is often mechanically complex, requiring longer downtimes for maintenance and frequent cleanings. With UV laser marking, no prolonged downtime associated with cleaning or fixing a printer, and the overall engraving process is extremely quick and simple.

UV lasers are better absorbed than other wavelengths and marking techniques by virtually all materials, requiring less power to produce a clear mark. This makes the process even simpler since UV laser marking ensures a high-quality, high-contrast mark in one application.

3. Maximizes authenticity

UV lasers create easy-to-read marks that are far superior to printed marks or labels. Apple Rubber uses a high-quality laser that can focus in on smaller spot sizes and produce a high peak power, leading to crisp, clear marks on o-rings and seals. This ensures that parts can clearly identified and their markings cannot  altered or tampered with.

In the pharmaceutical industry, counterfeiting has become a huge issue with many social and economic implications. Since pharmaceutical manufacturers are limite in what types of markings they can use, they must choose an option that is tamper-proof, easy to read, compatible with their specific environment and cannot alter the product. Because of these requirements, laser marking is the best choice in this industry and many others that require complete authenticity in their products.

4. Minimizes contamination

While the ink in traditional marking methods is non-toxic, the printing equipment often utilizes lubricants and solvents that can become airborne and contaminate printed products. Medical manufacturing often requires completely sterile products that produced in a classified cleanroom. In this case, traditional marking would not be acceptable.

During the laser marking process, the marking device does not come into direct contact with the product, allowing for clean operation with minimal contamination. This creates a product identification option for industries that require sterile products. And ensures that outside materials will not cause future contamination of a product.

What’s the difference between UV laser and Fiber laser marking machine? （lisa)

Fiber Laser marking machine and UV Laser Marking machines. The both machines can engrave a lot of materials, plastics, leather, metals, and others. However, whats the main difference and why one is much more expensive than the other?Here we are going to explain whats the difference between these two technologies and what are their primary use. because

1.Laser generator

UV laser marking machine:

It is with 355nm UV laser.

The machine uses third-order cavity frequency multiplication technology compared with infrared laser(fiber laser,Co2 laser). The 355UV light focusing spot is extremely small, which can greatly reduce the mechanical deformation of the material and Small processing thermal effect. since

Fiber laser marking machine:

The wavelength is 1064nm.

With regard to the wavelength of laser light, the shorter the wavelength, the smaller and higher accuracy the laser spot, and the smaller the heat affected zone formed during processing, the more exquisite the processing effect.

 

2.The basic working principle of laser processing materials:

Infrared laser (Co2 laser and fiber laser marking machine)

The substance of the material surface is heated and vaporized (evaporated) by laser, this way, the material removed, this approach is often referred to “thermal processing”.

 

UV laser marking machine

High-energy UV photons directly destroy the molecular on the surface of the material, this way, molecules removed, the process does not produce high heat and it is called “cold processing

3.The machine structure

The main structure of this machine by outlook may look similar, but the technology that these machines use inside is different.

The fiber laser uses a different power supplier than the UV laser,

Other of the difference is that the UV laser needs to be refrigerated by a water chiller,while the Fiber laser is refrigerated only by air.

4.Application

These machines are design for different material engraving solutions

The fiber laser engraving machine has as a primary use engrave and offer solutions to the metal marking industries, this machine it can mark, engrave (see the difference between engraving and mark) and carve over all the metal materials. but

Moreover, the UV laser is designe to be a practical solution for marking plastics and glass . The UV laser machine it can engrave a vast number of materials, from metals to paper. Check the list of materials that this machines can engrave and mark.

What you should know before buying an optical fiber laser engraving machine-Bunny

/in , , /by

Are you considering buying a fiber optic laser machine to mark your materials? You do not know which power or work area is the most suitable for you? In this blog we will explain the differences and most importantly we will give you a guide as detailed as possible to help you choose the right machine for your work.

What kind of material are you going to record?
It is very important to know what type of material is going to be recorded, since this depends on the type of machine you are going to choose, it is here that we have 3 types of very popular machines when it comes to high speed engraving.

UV marking laser

This machine can engrave any material, from paper, wood, metal and glass to leathers or fabrics. But the real wonder of this machine is that it can record any type of plastic that will open the windows to mark in many industries.

The disadvantage? They have a high cost compared to other engraving machines.

Fiber Optic Engraving Laser

It is here that he begins to see a difference, since these machines design exclusively for engraving on metals. However, they can record on some plastic materials, leather and jeans, this means that you will not be able to record on glass or on any plastic. It should be noted that its primary use is to mark any type of metal. Advantage that they have quite affordable prices.

CO2 laser engraving

The CO2 laser with galvanometer head is quite fast compared to a conventional CO2 CNC machine, while a normal CO2 engraving laser machine marks at 6000MM per minute, our high speed CO2 engraving machine can record at 6000MM per second on any non-material metal. such as Jean, fabrics, paper, granite, leather, acrylics, glass, some plastics, wood, among others.

Advantages: it can cut paper, leather and thin raft wood at high speeds.

Disadvantages: which can also be expensive.

Work area to work

The type of work area you want to work on is very important. This depends on the type of lens you need to record and the type of power you need to record on a large area.

The smaller the work area you want to record, the less power you will need and a smaller lens will be required, this will make the machine quite economical.

But this is where the important thing comes, many people only need to record a small work area, (examples, rings and bracelets, platelets for machines, dog plates, marking platelets for cows, platelets for containers etc.) a number of applications that only require a small work area which can make your machine easy to acquire.

At the same time other people or companies require a larger area of ​​engraving, (examples, marking Jean pants, denim, or fabrics) these machines require a working area of ​​130x130CM or more which can make the machine a little more expensive.

It is important to know the work area to know how much money we will need to buy our machine.

Laser marking speed

It is important to know what type of speed you need, because some companies or people require a very high speed of engraving or marking on different materials. This can only achieve with a head layer achieving high quality with high speed and with a high quality laser source. Normally the default speeds that the machines we sell are 3000mm per second. But some customers or companies need speeds greater than 8000mm per second. This in order to install the machines in assembly or packing chains. This also results in a higher cost machine. If you are looking to record at speeds dozens of materials per minute then you should consult us beforehand to give you an exact quote.
