Flexible through modularity

With today’s laser technology, glass, plexiglass and other materials with a weaker composition can be processed without any problems. In laser technology, marking is considered a basic function. Here too, our modularity stands out, because all of our machines can mark, but can also be combined with other functions, so that we can create a completely unique, personalized equipment for you.

Advantages

Laser engraving and laser marking are the best methods for creating permanent markings on a wide range of materials. They can be used on everything from glass and plastic to wood and metal. They easily withstand post-processing (e.g. paint) and remain identifiable. Unlike other marking techniques, the excellent traceability and durability of laser marking is exceptional. Due to its exceptional speed and high contrast effect, laser technology is the best choice. Laser technology also allows surface markings and deep markings with a targeting device.

Time-resistant

Deep marking works on a wide range of materials and creates a permanent mark. It is particularly suitable for use in places where the marking must remain identifiable for years. For example, after years of exposure to harsh chemicals, moisture and dirt, you can still read the laser-engraved data thanks to the high contrast, e.g. the QR code, the series of numbers, etc.

In industrial processes, automation plays an increasingly important role in increasing efficiency and productivity. The possibilities of automation offered by laser technologies are revolutionizing production processes. Automated laser systems simplify and optimize processes, minimizing the need for human intervention. This reduces human errors and increases process reliability. In industrial automation, laser technologies offer manufacturers flexibility and versatility. In industry, the automation of laser technologies opens up new opportunities in many industries. From the automotive industry to electronics manufacturing, from healthcare to aircraft manufacturing.

These automated systems make it possible to increase productivity without human intervention. In this way, we can reach the desired number of pieces much faster and this way, excluding unnecessary downtime.

For workstations with closed sensors, we get a system that complies with all safety regulations. The biggest advantage of laser automation is that it can be operated and controlled remotely, can be controlled with compatible CAD files or with a robot hand and robot, and the movement can be expanded with an X,Y table.

Laser cleaning is a technology used to remove contaminants such as rust, paint, oxides, and other residues from surfaces using laser ablation. The process can be performed manually or automatically, depending on the specific requirements and the scale of the operation.

Manual Laser Cleaning

Advantages:

Flexibility: Ideal for cleaning complex geometries and hard-to-reach areas where automated systems might struggle.

Cost-Effective for Small Jobs: Lower initial investment compared to automated systems, making it suitable for smaller-scale operations or occasional use.

Portability: Manual systems are often more portable, allowing operators to move the laser to different locations as needed.

Precision: Skilled operators can adjust the laser parameters in real-time for precise cleaning.

Disadvantages:

Inconsistency: The quality of cleaning can vary based on the operator’s skill and fatigue levels.
Safety Risks: Higher risk of operator exposure to laser radiation, which requires stringent safety measures.
Slower: Generally slower than automated systems, especially for large-scale or repetitive tasks.

Automated Laser Cleaning

Advantages:

1. Efficiency: Capable of high-speed cleaning, suitable for large-scale and repetitive tasks, increasing overall productivity.
2. Consistency: Delivers consistent cleaning quality, reducing variability caused by human factors.
3. Safety: Reduced risk to operators as the system can be enclosed, minimizing exposure to laser radiation.
4. Integration: Can be integrated into production lines for continuous operation, minimizing downtime.
5. Precision and Control: Advanced systems can precisely control the laser parameters, ensuring optimal cleaning without damaging the substrate.

Disadvantages:

Higher Initial Cost: Significant upfront investment in automated systems, which may not be cost-effective for small-scale operations.
Complexity: Requires technical expertise to set up, program, and maintain the system.

Applications

Manual Laser Cleaning: Suitable for restoration work, maintenance, and small batch cleaning tasks. Common in industries such as aerospace, metal industry and automotive repair.
Automated Laser Cleaning: Ideal for high-volume manufacturing environments such as automotive production lines, shipbuilding, and heavy machinery maintenance.

Topology-following laser cleaning technology is an advanced approach that enhances the precision and effectiveness of laser cleaning by adapting to the three-dimensional shape (topology) of the object being cleaned. This method is particularly beneficial for cleaning complex geometries and surfaces that are not flat.

Adaptive Laser Control

The laser cleaning system adjusts its parameters (such as power, pulse duration, and frequency) in real-time based on the surface topology. This adaptation ensures consistent cleaning performance across different surface angles and depths.

Benefits of Topology-Following Laser Cleaning

• Precision Cleaning: Adapts to complex geometries and irregular surfaces, ensuring all areas are cleaned without manual intervention.
• Consistent Quality: Maintains uniform cleaning quality across the entire surface, avoiding over-cleaning or under-cleaning.
• Efficiency: Reduces cleaning time and increases throughput by optimizing the laser path and parameters.
• Non-Contact: Like traditional laser cleaning, it is non-contact, reducing the risk of damaging delicate surfaces.
• Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of materials and contaminants, including rust, paint, coatings, and organic residues.

Manual laser cleaning can be an effective method for maintaining and restoring amorphous tools, which are often used in various industrial applications due to their unique properties such as high hardness and wear resistance. If we use the laser cleaning equipment correctly, we can extend the service life of our tools.

Cleaning Process:

• Position the laser cleaning head at the recommended distance from the tool surface.
• Move the laser beam across the surface of the tool in a controlled manner, ensuring even coverage.
• Use a raster scan pattern to ensure all areas are cleaned uniformly

benefits:

• Non-Abrasive: Laser cleaning does not physically abrade the tool surface, preserving its structural integrity.
• Precision: Allows for targeted cleaning of specific areas without affecting the rest of the tool.
• Versatility: Can be used to remove various types of contaminants, including rust, paint, and coatings.

The production of small QR codes with laser technology is one of today’s most modern and effective methods, which offers innovative solutions in many industries. The use of laser technology is not only beneficial in terms of accuracy and speed, but also enables the precise machining of various materials.

detailed miniature marking

Lasers are capable of creating extremely small and detailed patterns, which is essential for small QR codes. Such codes require precise processing of each point and line in order for the code to be read easily and error-free. Lasers also work quickly and efficiently, resulting in significant time savings during the manufacturing process.

a diversity of materials

One of the outstanding features of laser technology is that it can be used on many different materials. Whether it is metal, plastic, glass, ceramic or even organic materials, lasers can precisely machine all of these materials, which is particularly useful as the areas of application of QR codes can be extremely diverse.

areas of application

Laser production of small QR codes can be useful in many industries. In the electronics industry, for example, they can be used to identify chips and small electronic components. Tracking and identification of medical devices such as surgical instruments and implants can also be accomplished using laser QR codes. In the fashion industry, such as jewelry and watches, codes can be used to ensure authenticity and traceability.
