Lasers mark autosport components quickly

An Electrox product story
Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team Nov 28, 2006

Laser technology is a simple, quick, and versatile means of marking a component and can be applied to metals, plastics, glass textiles and coated substrates.

At Autosport Engineering 2007 Electrox, the UK's premier manufacturer of laser marking systems, will be demonstrating two new models from its comprehensive range of laser marking machines show.

Laser technology is a simple, quick, and versatile means of marking a component and can be applied to wide range of materials including metals, plastics, glass textiles and coated substrates.

Laser marking has the added advantages of few, if any consumables, so the marginal cost per is minimal.

Employing a number of laser marking platforms, including Yb:Fibre, Nd: YAG, Nd:Vanadate and CO2 plus its new, proprietary E F Technology, Electrox offers marking systems ranging from the entry-level E-Box, through the proven and popular MaxBox to large, bespoke workstations.

Systems are offered either as stand alone units but can equally be integrated into a production line.

All Electrox systems are designed, developed and manufactured at the company's facility in Letchworth Garden City, Hertfordshire, UK.

At Autosport International, the company will be demonstrating the power of the new Raptor and its proven Scorpion fibre laser marking systems.

With 4 years warranty, the EF Technology platform that powers the Raptor offers true peace of mind and is cost-effective even in the most hostile conditions.

All Electrox laser marking systems use the same proprietary software developed over more than 60 man years and verified in over 2,000 applications world-wide.

The marking process is controlled through a user friendly graphical interface.

Fully compatible with all current versions of Windows, the software can import a wide range of graphics file formats, generate bar codes, two dimensional codes and date codes as well as perform automatic serialisation, conduct merges with data from external sources and control up to four axis of motion.

The information to be marked onto the component can be imported as a data file from a PC or CADCAM system, or can be entered directly via the PC.

Components can be marked in a matter of seconds and changes to a design are software simple.

The E-Box and MaxBox systems are packaged stand alone units, each with a small footprint so are suitable for use where space is at a premium.

The E?Box and MaxBox can both accommodate either EF Technology or Yb:Fibre lasers and deliver plenty of power for virtually any application.

Both EF Technology and Yb:Fibre lasers are easily installed, are air cooled and use single phase power.
