Overview and Benefits of CO2 Laser Marking Machine

For more than hundreds of years, professionals have used the Glass marking method to meet a wide variety of industrial requirements. During the past, the methods involved in marking of glass were sand blasting stamp marking, acid etching, air grit and scribing and so on. Despite the mentioned traditional methods have their own benefits; such methods involve direct contact with the glass surface or the product, which expose the product to various potential damages.

Here comes the role of CO2 laser marking machine that gives many significant benefits in marking of industrial glass products. Here, you will find an RF excited sealed CO2 laser beam combined with galvanized head as well as software to provide users with the cleanliest, fastest and the most reliable way to mark and etch glass.

Overview on CO2 Laser Marking Machine

 

CO2 laser marking the glass by using bar codes, especially in the form of data matrix based bar code, which users may easily couple with vision systems to read the data easily present in the respective bar code.

Application of bar codes on the glass, thus allows tracking of the product in its entire way starting from its production procedure to up to its final assembly. In this way, CO2-based laser marking or laser cutting machine makes sure about continuous yet un-interrupted supply of various glass products. Individuals may even use the laser marked bar code after their sale the product for further identification and validation procedures.

How CO2 Laser Technique is Beneficial

Now, let us have a look on the common benefits of CO2 laser marking machine.

• Avoids contact with the glass part in its scribing to reduce the possibility associated with the damage or breakage of the product or any of its parts. In addition, the method avoids maintenance required in the respective scribe unit.

• Eliminates the application of any solvent, cleaning agent or thinning agent and maintains the stock properly. In this way, the latest CO2 techniques reduce operational costs significantly and eliminates any need related to a consistent maintenance of the product.

• The method eliminates the usage of pads to perform ink printing and to maintain the glass, as the CO2 laser beam falls in angular pattern to allow the printed image to appear in the sides rather in a square.

• Last, but not the least, in the latest method, users do not require stopping of the glass in its place and making sure about securing fit by the help of a rubber mask.
