Laser Marking UID's

Laser Marking Application:

UID marking was done with a 20 Watt Fiber Laser Marking System using a 160 mm lens. The part was marked with multiple etched marks of 2D codes and squares. The cycle time for the 2D code was 3.28 seconds. Two different squares were marked on the part with different cycle times. The light squares had cycle times of 6.86 seconds. The dark squares had cycle times of 13.89 seconds. The 2D code was readable at our application laboratory. The best readable part was the dark 2D code on the light square.

Lost Dog Finds Way Home Using Fiber Laser!

According to The Humane Society of the United States, there are approximately 74.8 million owned dogs in the United States. Of the dogs lost in the United States every year, only an estimated 10 percent ever find their homes again. One of the easiest ways to keep your pet safe is to ensure your pet wears identification tags at all times. Tags should include a local contact number, as well as a number for a friend or out-of-town relative. Proper identification tags are your pet's ticket home if he becomes lost.

Laser Photonics, a leader in fiber laser technology, has partnered with dog tag distributors in a nationwide effort to educate and empower pet owners everywhere to help keep your pets safe! Finding a faster, easier, less expensive way to produce dog tags for its customers, distributors are purchasing Laser Photonics’ cutting-edge Fiber Tower XP systems which can be integrated into any production line. These systems are safe, compact, and service-free, designed to meet individual marking needs with the ability to mark a wide variety of materials using many different techniques.

Using the Fiber Tower XP in this process, steel and aluminum dog tags were etched with a 20 Watt Q-switched Faber Laser with a 160mm lens. The samples were marked using a true type font and a laser engraving font. The power was set at 98%, a frequency of 20kHz, and a speed of 10 inches per second. Total time to complete was 51.8 seconds. Offering maintenance free operation, user friendly design and software, the Fiber Tower XP is ideal for these applications.

Considering the cost reductions of no consumables and low power consumption, the FiberTower™ Series Laser Systems is now the most cost effective, eco-friendly and flexible apparatus of Direct Parts Marking, UID, and Deep Engraving in the Aerospace, Automotive, and Medical, Defense, Semiconductor and other markets. Our Fiber Laser Systems are more easily integrated into industrial processes in comparison with conventional lasers.

FiberTower™ Series Laser equipment utilizes highest quality components from world renowned manufacturers and the best available software with modern exchange protocol, remote capabilities and dot.net support.
