Laser marking machine (laser marking machine) is the use of laser beam to mark the surface of various materials permanently. The effect of marking is to expose the deep substance through the evaporation of surface substances, thereby engraving precise patterns, trademarks and characters. Laser marking machines are mainly divided into: CO2 laser marking machines, semiconductor laser marking machines, fiber laser marking machines, at present, laser marking machine is mainly used in some occasions that require more fine and higher progress. Used in electronic components, integrated circuits (ICs), electrical appliances, manual communications, hardware products, tool accessories, precision instruments, eye clocks, jewelry, auto parts, plastic keys, building materials, PVC pipes. Laser marking machines have become extremely common in industrial applications. How to choose suitable and reasonable laser equipment in the face of many laser equipment? Today, Imagine Laser will tell you how to properly purchase laser marking machine equipment.I. Principles to follow when purchasing a laser marking machine:
Laser marking machine technology has many valuable features. However, when it comes to whether a product is suitable for this technology, the following principles should be followed:
1. It can't be solved by other existing methods. It can only be solved by laser processing.
2. It can be solved by other existing processing methods, but if laser processing methods are used, it can greatly improve product quality, improve production efficiency and significantly increase economic and social benefits;
3. Full consideration should be given to those matching links related to laser processing in the processing process;
4. Attention should be paid to the application of the combined processing technology of laser processing and conventional processing in order to make full use of their respective strengths;
5. In practical applications, if the economy is not tight, it is recommended to purchase imported configurations, because some domestic technologies have not yet met the requirements, and the foreign configuration machines have stable performance and less after-sales maintenance, which greatly improves wage efficiency.
Specific requirements when selecting a laser:
1. Good laser beam quality, including mode and mode stability;
2. Whether the laser output power is large enough (this is the key to speed and effect), and whether the energy is stable (usually requires a stability of 2%, in some cases it requires 1%, so that the ideal effect can be processed);
3. The laser should have high reliability and should be able to work continuously in the harsh industrial processing environment;
4. The laser itself should have good maintainability, fault diagnosis and interlocking functions, and short downtime;
5. Simple and convenient operation, clear control key function, can resist illegal operation, protect laser from damage. In addition, price is also a key consideration.
