How to choose laser marking machine, you need to master these points!

Currently, people divide laser marking machine into semiconductor laser marking machine, CO2 laser marking machine, fiber laser marking machine.

Generally, semiconductor and fiber laser marking machine is suitable for marking materials.

Such as metal and plastic.

CO2 laser is mainly for non-metallic materials, such as acrylic, transparent plastics, ceramics and glass.

So how to choose a suitable laser marker?

Five points to choose a fiber laser marking machine

Marking machine laser source.

If the process workpiece hardware, plastic, label paper and other materials with a longer wavelength of optical fiber laser marker.

Or it is bamboo, cloth, ceramics, acrylic and other materials with a shorter wavelength of co2 laser marking machine.

If it is film, fruit, eggs, cartons, reinforced glass and other thermal materials with moderate wavelength uv laser marker.

Of course, it is not that a material is suitable for only one laser source.

The same material can use a variety of laser sources, it depends on the precision of your processing requirements.

Marking machine power.

Laser power is sometimes the key to determine the speed and effect.

Generally, like ultraviolet engraving paper, film, plastic, with a low power of 1.2w marking.

But the carving of glass requires ultraviolet 3W, or even 5W power to move.

Like hardware, you can use optical fiber for 20W.

But if the pursuit of high efficiency and high speed, it takes 30W or higher power to achieve.

The main hardware structure of marking machine.

 The main hardware structure of laser marker, including laser, laser scanning galvanometer, focusing system, laser power supply and calculation notification system.

You only need to choose according to your processing needs is imported or domestic.

Especially for high precision requirements, and the manufacturers clearly.

The calculation notification system.

There are many kinds of software used in the laser marker.

Some are routine, you need to figure out whether there will be secondary development needs.

Price of marking machine.

In fact, the price is more customer demand configuration and change.

So here only to give some general reference price, general fiber laser marking machine (20w-50w) price 20,000-80,000.

Carbon dioxide laser marker (10w-100w) price range from 30,000 to 180,000.

Ultraviolet laser marker (1.2w-10w) price range from 60,000 to 260,000.
