Laser Marking Systems : Industry Applications
The range of environmentally-friendly
laser engraving/marking/patterning applications has become nearly as broad
as manufacturing itself.
- The automotive industry uses laser to mark vehicle identification
(VIN) numbers, part numbers and to decorate switches and instrument
panels—laser is fast, economical, indelible and marks interior
fittings crisply and attractively.
- Medical products marked with laser include implantables such
as pace makers, artificial joints and heart valves. Laser marks permanently
without potential contamination of inks and chemicals
- diagnostic instruments
- laser is a precise way to lay down rulings, graduations and
signifying marks which are autoclavable as well as indelible
- surgical instruments - Laser is both economical and permanent
and marks steel utensils without raising burrs which can snag delicate
surgical gloves
- Electronics products, particularly epoxy encapsulants, hybrid
circuits, silicon wafers and injection molded switches/connectors/packages,
have a long history of laser marking. Throughput—massive throughput—indelibility
of the mark and superior finish quality drive these applications. Silicon
wafers can be marked after photolithography without raising dirt or
debris to contaminate the delicate surface.
- MIL spec components are favorite applications for laser marking/engraving—laser
easily passes all military permanency specifications
- Tooling and hardened materials mark better with laser even
than with chemical etch, and mark more uniformly, efficiently and productively.
- The advertising specialties industry has seen a major upsurge
of decorative laser engraving in the last 15 years—laser offers
exceptional flexibility in engraved content: low volumes of parts and
even one-offs can be marked economically.
- Any product requiring permanent sequential numbering, from
cow ear tags to brass locker numbers are marked with laser—laser
systems automatically serialize, numerals can be marked boldly and attractively,
laser systems can periodically increment batch numbers, and mark and
serialize barcodes
- Agricultural products ranging from frozen fish to lumber can
be economically marked with laser—agricultural products are always
keenly cost competitive and laser offers some of the lowest cost-per-mark
numbers of all marking methods
