    Fiber Laser Marking Medical Devices:

    • The manufacturing of medical devices is specialize and very rigorous; lives depend on them. A fiber laser marking will last a long time and will not fade through repeated sterilization at high temperatures.
    • If the device is bio-compatible, it will remain fiber laser marking. There are no acids, inks, or solvents add to create the identifying mark and possibly harm a patient. There will be no grooves or burrs to degrade the surface of the device.
    • With a fiber laser marking system, a large amount of information can be place in a very small area. This makes devices easily and accurately trace. This is important to the well-being of patients if a certain batch of devices should be recall.
    • Medical devices of all sizes and shapes can be laser mark; implants are notoriously oddly shape.

    Laser Marking Firearms:

    • Firearms can be customize for personal enjoyment through the use of fiber laser marking systems
    • They mark serial numbers for easy identification if stolen. The Bureau of Alcohol, Firearms and Tobacco requires all firearms and firearm parts sold within the US be mark with a serial number. Mechanical engraving machines produced a shallow marking that was easily remove. A fiber laser marking system will produce a high-quality mark is difficult to remove and remains easy to read through normal wear.

    Laser Marking and Engraving of Jewelry:

    • Precision is very important in the jewelry business, and a fiber laser marking system provides such precision.
      Large or small engravings are possible; on flat or round surfaces.
    • Many fiber laser marking units for jewelry engraving are very small, some even portable. This provides an ease of use for jewelers., meeting the needs of their clients.
    • A personalized engraving may make the recovery of stolen jewelry easier; and can make a family heirloom more valuable for future generations.

    Parts Manufacturing:

    • Any company that manufactures parts can use a fiber laser marking system to add serial numbers, bar codes, date codes, part numbers, data matrix code, or other identifying marks to any part. This will help control inventory and may eliminate confusion between similar parts with differing functions.
    • Selling to any government agency will require a stringent marking system be in place and consistently implemente.

    The possibilities for utilizing fiber laser marking are almost endless.

    Any graphic, image or text that can be create on a computer can be engrave using a laser.

    Metal and many non-metal materials can be engrave; all sizes, shapes, and contours.

    Specialized software is an important consideration in getting the most from your fiber laser equipment.

    Laser engraving is an exciting combination of science and art and you will want state-of-the-art

    software that allows the use of bitmap images, vector graphics and drawings, among other features.

  • Micro Part Laser Marking-Doris

    Micro Part Laser Marking

    Traceability has become a buzzword of the 21st century across a multitude of industries, primarily to verify authenticity in these days of “pirate” products, forgeries and design theft. Nowhere is this more necessary than in the manufacture of micro parts such as those produced for use in information technology, engineering, medical devices, the auto industry and many other markets. For this reason, it has become imperative for manufacturers to permanently mark the parts they produce, and laser marking is a popular choice for this process.

    Why Laser Marking?

    Laser marking machines are able to deliver indelible marks that are small enough to fit on micro parts, quickly and cost-effectively. The laser marking equipment can create marks as small as 10µm, which means you need a loupe to be able to read it. Depending on the material used for the micro part marking, laser marking works by either carbonizing the surface of the part, ablating or engraving it:

    • The process of carbonization produces the mark in a contrasting color, which is particularly useful for medical implant devices that need to maintain the integrity of the surface.
    • Laser marking using the ablation process partially removes a layer of approximately 10µm or less from the material’s surface, which exposes the base material beneath and creates a contrast in appearance.
    • Laser engraving removes the material within the design, resulting in a depression in the material that can go from 50µm to 100µm and deeper. This is ideal for parts that are likely to be subjected to abrasion, such as vehicle auto parts and bearings.

    Deeper laser engraving is mostly used for parts that are exposed to harsh environments or for tool and die / mold construction, such as is used in the minting industry. However, deep engraving is also popular for designing jewelry and engraving firearms as well as in other industries.

     

    Choosing a Laser Marking System

    Laser marking equipment comes in various options, but a fiber laser marking

    system is the most versatile for micro part marking.

    The laser marking machines supplied by XT LASER use

    fiber-pumping technology to bundle together fibers that are impregnated with a

    product to increase conductivity:

    Depending on the surface of the material, an infra-red laser light is used.

    The light passes through the optical fibers to the head, where the beam expands to

    create the mark needed on the metal, ceramic or plastic surface.

    • The fiber laser marking process produces high quality images for flawless traceability, and uses no harsh chemicals or other consumables.
    • The system needs very little maintenance. The machinery has a relatively small footprint, which makes it fast and easy to install in any location.
    • Fiber lasers use lower pulse energies to deliver longer pulses with peak power,
    • while diode-pumped lasers use a higher pulse repetition rate.
      These features make fiber laser marking an ideal choice for the identification marks on micro parts for any industry.

    Laser Marking Micro Parts

    Laser marking offers a non-contact method of marking micro parts,

    which makes them an ideal choice for parts with thin walls that damage easily

    on contact. Marking is easiest on the flat surfaces find on most micro parts,

    but a programmable Z-axis enables marking on parts containing steps.

    Rotary devices facilitate marking on curved parts, if the difference between

    the height of the part and the point where the mark is require is greater than 4 mm.

    Fiber lasers are often the first choice for the marking of micro parts,

    because of the quality, speed and cost associated with the process.
