FAQ
1.We are specialized in drugs packaging design, we need to mark bar code, text, logos on the packaging, which marking effect is better, ultraviolet laser or fiber laser?
Comparing with CO2 and fiber laser, UV laser has superior advantages: widespread applicability, and any packaging materials and colors are ok; the sensitive power is not needed for the packaging materials, which decreases the packaging cost; UV laser has better marking effect.
2. I want to purchase one wood engraving machine, which machine is better?
For wood marking, generally we use low-power CO2 laser marking equipment.
3.What are the differences between fiber laser and CO2 laser marking machine? Whether one machine can mark plastic, cloth and metal?
When marking on the object surface, there are several effects: 1. engraving (such as fiber laser marking on metals, CO2 laser marking on bamboo slips); 2. discoloration (changing the color of object surface, such as UV laser marking on plastic); 3. ablation (such as CO2 laser marking on some flexible materials); 4. DE-coating (removing paint from object surface, such as marking on auto dial and keypad). Thus, you should choose machine according to materials and marking effects you need. Generally, one machine can’t mark all materials.
4.How long is the working lifetime of laser marking machine? Which parts can affect the machine lifetime?
Generally 3 to 5 years, mainly some optical components will affect the lifetime.
5.Why is the winter beam quality not better than summer?
Environment temperature has some effects for the laser source heat dissipation and laser output. The temperature for water cooling laser source is 15℃ to 35℃, air cooling is 15℃ to 30℃. And air cooling laser source has bigger influences then water cooling. If ambient temperature changes a lot, you can equip water cooling machine to achieve better marking effect.
6.Can the laser marking machine use in furniture Industry? What is advantage?
Yes, use CO2 laser source to mark wood furniture. Laser marking machine has the advantage of easy operation, high flexibility and quick speed.
