Fiber laser marking machines could mark on all metal, such as carbon still, Brass, Copper, Stainless Steel, Gold, Silver, Aluminum, etc.
Most clients purchase our laser marking machine for cutting and engraving the gold and silver.
Usually, a 50W laser marking machine could meet almost clients. It can cut 1.2mm gold and 1mm silver. If you want to mark on ring or bangle. You need to purchase a fixing plate and rotary.
Choose Mini machine model can save a place for customers’ workshops and also can save shipping costs.
Rotary 50mm diameter for marking rings. If you just need marking rings you can choose this size.
Rotary 65mm diameter for marking rings and bracelets. If your products including rings and bracelet, we advise you choose this.
Also, fiber laser marking machines could mark on hard plastic. Such as ABS, PVC, etc. But for hard plastic, if you want to mark before purchasing, we suggest you send some samples to us to test.
Because there are many different hard plastics. Some hard plastics could mark. But there are some hard plastics cannot mark using a fiber laser marking machine.
The CO2 laser marking machine uses a laser beam to mark permanent surfaces on a variety of different materials.
The effect of marking is to expose deep materials through evaporation of surface materials, thereby engraving exquisite patterns, trademarks, dates, logos or characters.
At present, CO2 laser marking machines are mainly using in some occasions requiring more precise and higher precision.
Used in food, medicine, wine, electronic components, integrated circuits (IC), electrical appliances, mobile communications, building materials, PVC pipe and other industries, the main advantage of
CO2 laser marking machine and inkjet printer is that there is no consumables and permanent.
The type of material you are going to cut or engrave determines what type of machine you need. There are different types of laser machine, CO2 laser, fiber optic laser and YAG laser. A good way to
know what type of laseryou need is the following.

1.UV laser marker is known to provide extraordinary performance. This system represents the perfect solution for both the direct part marking and also label marking in almost every market segment. These market segments include automotive, healthcare, solar, medical or surgical tools marking, electronics as well as packaging and many other applications. For more information, you may search UV Laser Marking Machines.
2.UV laser marker systems are providing help in a varied range of industries right from the automotive industry to the healthcare and packaging. This can be the result of the feature that these systems provide power in different ranges. You may find a system according to the desired power range.
3.Some of the UV laser markers are available with the wavelength of around 355 nm. Due to the high repetition rate, they are particularly suitable for marking plastics. They can reach very high speeds. As high speed is indispensable for short cycle times in industrial manufacturing environments. These systems often used in those applications.Also, they are capable of providing high peak powers, so one of the application area s for these systems are fine marking and structuring. They are used in such a way that there is no thermal impact on glass applications or ceramics.
4.An excellent quality for micro material processing and classical laser marking applications.
5.Due to their diverse features, they are also application in medical/ pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries. In these industries, these systems deter tampering and counterfeiting. These applications help to ensure lifetime brand protection and be traced.
6.UV laser marking systems find applications in those areas where high contracts marking and required coding. For example, an UV laser marking system can mark up to 250 products per minute without any distortion of code on the rotary devices.
Co2 laser marking machine or fiber laser marking machine or UV laser marking machine,How do you choose the one you need?
If you’re looking to mark metal, what you need to buy is a fiber laser. Or you’re looking to mark organic materials like textiles, wood, or cardboard, a CO2 laser is the best choice.
And if your application is laser cutting of metals, you’ll most likely need a high-power CW (continuous wave) fiber laser. For other materials like plastics and rubber, it can be one or the other.
The main difference that determines the type of materials each laser can process is the wavelength. A fiber laser usually has a wavelength of 1,060 nm while CO2 lasers have wavelengths in the 10,600 nm range.
In general, fiber lasers have many advantages over CO2 lasers.
Fiber laser marking machine are best suited for high-contrast markings like metal annealing, etching, and engraving. They produce an extremely small focal diameter (resulting in intensity up to 100
times higher than a CO2 system), making them the ideal choice for permanent marking of serial numbers, barcodes, and data matrix on metals. Fiber lasers are widely used for product traceability (direct part
marking) and identification applications.
One big plus is fiber lasers are maintenance-free machines, and they have a long service life (our lasers have a minimum of 100,000 operating hours). They are also smaller than CO2 lasers. Plus due to the high
electrical efficiency of fiber lasers. They use significantly less power than CO2 lasers, resulting in huge cost savings for cutting applications.
Fiber lasers also have a growing demand for industrial cleaning applications such as removing rust, paint, oxides, and other contaminants.
The cost of a fiber laser system will greatly vary depending on your applications. Industrial fiber lasers systems for demanding environment like we do usually start at $40,000 and can go up to $1,000,000 for
high-power laser-cutting machines. The power usually ranging from 20 W to 6,000 W will have the largest impact on price.
The wavelength is 1064nm.With regard to the wavelength of laser light, the shorter the wavelength, the smaller and higher accuracy the laser spot, and the smaller the heat affected zone formed during processing, the more exquisite the processing effect.
CO2 laser marking machine is ideal for a wide range of non-metallic materials including plastics, textiles, glass, acrylic, wood, and even stone. They are used in pharmaceutical and food packaging as well as the marking of PVC pipes, building materials, mobile communications gadgets, electrical appliances, integrated circuits, and electronic components.
If you need to cut thicker materials, it’s best to go with CO2 lasers. CO2 lasers deliver faster initial piercing times, quicker straight-line cutting and a smoother surface finish when cutting materials above 5 mm.
Unfortunately, CO2 lasers use significantly more power than fiber lasers, resulting in a higher cost of operation. For instance, a high-power CO2 laser and chiller will consume roughly 70 kW when operating on
maximum power. A similarly powered fiber laser consumes approximately 18 kW.The CO2 laser with galvanometer head is quite fast compared to a conventional CO2 CNC machine, while a normal CO2 engraving
laser machine marks at 6000MM per minute, our high speed CO2 engraving machine can record at 6000MM per second on any non-material metal. such as Jean, fabrics, paper, granite, leather, acrylics, glass,
some plastics, wood, among others.
UV laser marking machine Design on laser cavity adopts a series of optimization method.So as to ensure the beam quality as the fundamental mode.The machine takes 355nm pumped purple light laser device as the light source. Narrower pulse width and smaller heat affection contribute to generate peak power. The higher the peak power is, then the wider the adapting range of materials is. So this implement perfect printing in some relatively hard material.Higher pulse stability, then namely better pulse consistency of laser produces the same carving effect, so it’s very suitable for precision marking. Higher pulse repetition frequency meets the need of quick marking and then high production efficiency. High efficiency of the photoelectric conversion and long service life.It can mark date, bar code and two-dimension code automatically.Superior performance, stable, high conversion rate and low energy consumption.
And It is with 355nm UV laser.The machine uses third-order cavity frequency multiplication technology compared with infrared laser(fiber laser,Co2 laser). The 355UV light focusing spot is extremely small, which can greatly reduce the mechanical deformation of the material and Small processing thermal effect.High-energy UV photons directly destroy the molecular on the surface of the material, this way, molecules removed, the process does not produce high heat and it is called “cold processing".
