Choosing the Right Laser Marking Machine: A Buying Guide
There are many different laser marking machines on the market today, leaving customers wondering how to pick the right one. Here is an overview of the main types of laser markers and their applications.
The primary categories of laser marking machines are: fiber laser, CO2 laser, and UV laser. The main difference between them lies in the laser source.
Fiber lasers are suitable for marking metals and some non-metals. They work by burning and oxidizing the material surface at high heat to leave a permanent mark. The laser source is the most important component of any laser marking system. Iray uses high-quality laser tubes from leading brands like Raycus and Coherent to ensure stability and minimize downtime. IPG imported lasers are also available for customers requiring imported laser sources.
2. CO2 Laser Markers
CO2 laser can only mark non-metals such as wood, leather, plastic, glass etc.
3. UV Laser Markers
UV laser markers are cold lasers that do not damage the material surface. They are ideal for marking packaging bags, food bags, tempered glass, plastic boards etc.
