What is the difference between different powers of UV laser marking machines?

Anyone who knows about UV laser marking machines knows that UV laser marking machines have many powers, and different powers also allow UV laser marking machines to have different application scenarios. Today we will take a look at the differences between UV laser marking machines of different powers.

Ultraviolet laser marking machines are generally used for marking precision equipment. Due to the small focus spot and small processing heat effect, the marking accuracy is higher than other laser marking machines on the market, so the price is relatively expensive. Common UV laser marking machine powers are generally 1.5w, 3w, 5w, 10w, and 15w. The power of UV laser marking machines for different products is different.

1.5-5W UV devices are mostly used for precision marking. Generally, the higher the power, the higher the price. 10-15W devices are expensive and are mainly used for precision cutting and precision punching. They are mainly used for materials that are difficult to cut, such as FPC, ceramic sheets, and glass sheets. When purchasing a UV laser marking machine, you should pay attention to the following:

1. Check whether the quality of the laser beam output is good, including the stability of the mode and mold;

2. Check whether the output power of the laser is large enough (this is the key to speed and effect), and whether the energy is stable (usually 2% stability is required, and 1% is required in some occasions to produce the ideal effect);

3. Check whether the laser is reliable and should be able to work continuously in harsh industrial processing environments;

4. Check whether the operation is simple and convenient, the control keys have clear functions, can reject illegal operations, and protect the laser from damage;

5. Carry out marking tests before purchase, and confirm the purchase after the effect is achieved;

6. The laser itself should have good maintenance, fault diagnosis and interlocking functions, and short downtime.

The above is an introduction to the differences between UV laser marking machines of different powers. The editor recommends that users use 5W equipment as much as possible when purchasing a UV laser marking machine if the economy allows. Compared with 1.5W equipment, it is more scalable and has a larger storage space.
