Choosing a laser marking machine is the same as we usually buy things. The best is not necessarily the most expensive, and the most expensive is not necessarily the most suitable. The following Foshan Fulan Laser will tell you some tips for purchasing a laser marking machine:

1. Look at the material of the marking workpiece:

The type of laser marking machine applicable to workpieces of different materials will be different. At present, the types of laser marking machines produced by Foshan Fulan Laser mainly include five types: optical fiber, green light, ultraviolet, carbon dioxide and mopa.

Fiber laser marking machine: mainly used for marking with metal materials, but also for marking some non-metal materials.

Green laser marking machine: mainly used in plastics.

Ultraviolet laser marking machine: mainly used for marking glass, plastic and other brittle materials and polymer materials.

Carbon dioxide laser marking machine: Mainly used for leather, cloth, wood, bamboo, paper, plastic, rubber, stone and other non-metallic materials.

mopa laser marking machine: mainly used for marking aluminum alloy, anodized aluminum oxide black, stainless steel color marking, plastic and other sensitive materials.

2. Look at the size of the processed workpiece:

Select the appropriate model according to the size of the workpiece to be marked (the maximum size of the workpiece and the maximum size of the marking content). The marking area of a laser marking machine is related to the laser power of the equipment itself. The greater the power, the larger the marking area. At present, the maximum format of the standard model is 300*300mm. Beyond this range, the average laser output will be unstable, resulting in different levels of marking effects on products on the same table. If your marking format is too large, it is recommended that you choose the non-standard machine independently developed and produced by Foshan Fulan Laser-large format laser marking machine, which can complete large format/large area/large range high-precision marking at one time .

3. Look at the requirements of the process:

Laser marking can be subdivided into plane marking, three-dimensional marking or fixed marking, flying dynamic marking, etc. It should also be considered whether the laser equipment is used alone or equipped with related facilities for supporting use. If For supporting use, it is necessary to consider the matching factors of supporting facilities and whether they can achieve the desired effect.

4. Marking machine power

Selecting the right power depends on the product material first. For example, 3W is more than enough for marking paper, film, and plastic with a UV machine, but 3W or even 5W power is required for marking glass. The second is efficiency. For example, 20W optical fiber is generally used for marking hardware. If efficiency and speed are pursued, 30W or 50W should be used.

5. Appearance and model of laser marking machine

The appearance of laser marking machines at this stage is mixed, and the styles are changeable. There are handheld, desktop, flying online (pipeline), desktop, portable and other styles (non-standard equipment customized according to customer requirements).

6. Look at the manufacturer’s qualifications:

When choosing a laser marking machine, many people tend to focus on the price, thus ignoring some of the business’s qualification issues, which is easy to leave unnecessary trouble for future work. When choosing a laser equipment merchant, it is best to inspect the other party in various aspects, such as: company business license, laser equipment qualification certificate, relevant qualification certificate, cooperating customers, etc., to ensure that the after-sales service of the equipment after purchase can keep up.

The main technical and management personnel of Foshan Fulan Laser Technology Co., Ltd. have more than ten years of experience in laser equipment research and development and manufacturing.

7. Look at the manufacturer’s service:

The competition in the laser industry is becoming increasingly fierce. Customers should not only pay attention to product quality and corporate qualifications, but also understand the services provided by merchants in detail. The operation of laser marking machine requires the guidance and training of engineers. Especially the application skills, parameters and daily maintenance of equipment marking software.

8. About customization and others

When using laser equipment, the requirements for accuracy, engraving effect, speed, and automation, custom fixtures, etc., must be raised to the manufacturer in advance, and confirmed during the sample test and plan, so as to avoid purchasing a marking machine that does not meet the requirements.
