What advantages and benefits does the laser offer this sector?

Laser marking is abrasion, heat and acid resistant, which is a major requirement for data plates and industrial tags. Depending on the laser parameters, it is possible to mark certain metals (e.g. stainless steels) without leaving tangible depressions on the surface (annealing).

Very often the customers have to process variable data. The laser is the perfect tool to mark with either just-intime online data or with data imported from any external system (Office programs, files, SAP, databases, etc. ).

Economical production

Since there are no setup costs as for example with pad printing, the costs per mark are always the same – whether you need 1 piece or 1000. The customer can work with different shapes or sizes at the same time. Laser engraving also does not incur any costs for consumables such as ink, chemicals, pastes or sprays (and therefore no disposal costs too). Energy consumption is low and setup time is reduced to a minimum. A precise and complete tool for all materials, sizes and shapes The laser beam is the most complete tool for metals and many kinds of plastics. All used material can be marked directly and precisely with the laser without any additional setup or chemical additives such as sprays. Even 1 point lettering (needed for very small plates) and fine lines like technical drawings are clearly legible.

Easy handling

The included, Trotec made, software packages fit perfectly to the machines and are compatible with all graphics, CAD, label printing and similar programs. The customer does not need to learn a completely new software program – the whole job setup can be done in the laser software after preparing it in the daily used program. Environmental friendly Laser technology does not require any chemicals such as inks, acids or solvents. Therefore there is also no need for costly disposal and you can work independent from any legal environment restrictions.
