2000 laser marking systems installed

Electrox has over 2,000 current installations of laser marking systems, in over 40 countries, world-wide, with customers throughout North America, Europe, Asia and the Far East.

Since its establishment more than 30 years ago, Electrox has maintained its position at the forefront of lasers for industrial applications, combining the latest laser technology with clever systems design and inventive applications engineering.

Electrox has brought together laser physicists from around the world to create innovative, yet practical and easy to use laser marking systems for industrial applications.

Always entrepreneurial, Electrox is founded on a process of constant innovation and development of industrial laser marking systems.

Developing robust marking solutions in response to market demand, it has revolutionized the market during the past twelve months, having introduced an almost entirely new product range and developed pioneering laser marking technologies.

Offered in modular form for integration into production lines and as a range of turn-key solutions, Electrox laser marking systems are suitable for a wide range of applications, including metals, glass, plastics and textiles, wood, leather and coated materials.

Products range from the ground breaking Raptor EF Technology laser, the Scorpion fiber laser, the Razor CO2 laser, and the Cobra V-12/20 Nd:Vanadate laser.

Electrox prides itself on retaining total control over all the design, development, manufacture, and support processes associated with the delivery of effective manufacturing solutions.

This tradition guarantees customers a single point of reference and no abrogation of responsibility in the event of either pre-sales queries or after sales support.

Crucially this ownership of the full product life cycle extends to the construction of the software used to create the mark and control the laser.

Electrox has invested over 60-man years in perfecting its unique proprietary Windows based marking software application.

Howard Moore, general manager of Electrox, said: "We have always been at the forefront of developments in laser marking and will continue to be so.

The Electrox range of laser marking systems has been created to address the widest range of materials with a choice of easy-to-use, industrial systems".

He added: "Laser marking has changed out of all recognition during the last decade." "The actual price, size and power requirements of a laser marking system have fallen substantially.

Power requirements have fallen by up to 75% whilst marking speeds have doubled.

A system is now around half the cost it was four years ago and this substantial reduction in cost of ownership has made laser marking accessible to a far larger range of companies than ever before." Electrox has over 2,000 current installations, in over 40 countries, world-wide, with customers throughout North America, Europe, Asia and the Far East.

Industries served spanning automotive, computer key boards, tooling, plastic products, electronics components, mobile phone key pads, medical devices and giftware.

A world-leader in the design, development and manufacture of laser marking systems, Electrox was founded in the early 1970s by two innovative entrepreneurs and was the first to commercialize a compact fast axial flow CO2 laser.

In 1986 it was acquired by the 600 Group and in 1990 it acquired the laser business of Cincinnati Milacron.

Electrox continues to enjoy substantial growth world-wide, particularly in North America where it is currently opening new regional offices to provide applications development, sales and support closer to its increasing number of customer in the USA and Canada.
