Introduction to CO2 Laser Marking Machines

A CO2 laser marking machine is a type of laser engraving system that utilizes a carbon dioxide gas laser to etch or mark materials with precision. This type of laser operates typically at wavelengths of 10.6 micrometers, which is optimal for non-metallic materials.

Applications of CO2 Laser Marking Machines

CO2 laser marking machines are highly versatile and find applications across various industries due to their efficiency and precision. Their typical uses include:

  • Marking on non-metallic materials like glass, wood, acrylic, and paper
  • Engraving serial numbers, logos, and barcodes
  • Personalization of consumer goods
  • Industrial part identification and traceability

Advantages of CO2 Laser Marking Machines

CO2 laser marking machines offer numerous advantages, which contribute to their widespread adoption:

  • High-speed marking capabilities, often exceeding 2000 millimeters per second
  • Non-contact process minimizes material deformation and wear
  • High accuracy with repeatability of less than 20 micrometers
  • Long service life with CO2 laser tubes lasting over 30,000 hours
  • Environmentally friendly with zero consumables required

Technical Specifications

The efficiency and compatibility of CO2 laser marking machines depend on their technical specifications:

  • Laser Power: Typically ranges from 10 watts to 150 watts
  • Marking Speed: 1000-2000 millimeters per second
  • Marking Precision: ±0.01 millimeters
