Laser systems are unlike any other coding technology. They are fast. And when installed correctly, they provide outstanding clarity and code quality.
Yet laser systems aren’t ideal for every manufacturer. The upfront cost can be high in comparison to other types of coding. You also need to install safety infrastructure - such as guarding - to protect your production staff from exposure to optical radiation. However, what is often overlooked is that not all substrates are suitable for laser coding. Bearing in mind the higher initial costs of laser systems, why should they be considered? The simple answer is production capacity. If your production speeds are fast and your production rate high, then laser can give you a very competitive coding solution. The reduced consumables when coding with lasers potentially provides a faster return on investment in the long term when compared to traditional coding technologies. The key for laser coding is to work with a technology expert - it is essential that your chosen supplier not only understands the laser product but also how substrates affect coding performance.
