Is UV laser really better than CO2 and fiber laser?

 We all know that lasers have a wide range of applications, such as cutting, welding, and marking. Lasers are highly precise and are loved by users. But do you know which laser is better? For example, commonly used UV lasers, fiber lasers, and carbon dioxide lasers.

In terms of price, UV lasers are the most expensive, but is they really the best?

Actually, different lasers have different application scenarios. For the same product, such as PET plate engraving, the effect of UV and fiber optic is not ideal, there will be traces of carbonization, which is not beautiful. However, carbon dioxide can remove the surface well without blackening the edges. Through this case, it is not difficult to see that carbon dioxide laser engraving is better than them? There is only the most suitable laser, not the best laser.

Compared with CO2 laser marking machine, what are the advantages of UV laser marking machine?

Advantages of CO2 laser marking machine:

Due to its high efficiency and high beam quality, CO2 laser marking machine has become one of the common forms of laser marking. It is also suitable for various non-metallic materials including wood. Acrylic. Glass. Textiles. Plastics. Foil and film. Leather. Even stone. CO2 laser marking is mainly used for food. Pharmaceutical or wine packaging. Electronic components. Integrated circuits. Electrical appliances. Mobile communications. Building materials and PVC pipes, etc. It uses the interaction of laser energy and materials to leave a permanent mark on the surface of the object, which is a revolutionary alternative to inkjet, silk screen printing, blade engraving and other traditional technologies. This technology can engrave exquisite designs, trademarks, dates or texts on the surface of the product.

Advantages of UV laser marking machine:

A UV laser marking machine with a wavelength of 355nm. Due to its short wavelength and narrow pulse, it can produce the smallest focus, maintain the smallest heat-affected area, and can be processed very accurately to minimize the mechanical deformation of the material. The advantage of the UV laser marking machine is that it can not only provide extremely fine processing effects, but also maintain good positioning accuracy. UV laser marking is performed on the surface of packaging bottles of polymer materials such as medicines, cosmetics, and food. Marking, scribing, micro-holes in silicon wafers, flexible PCB boards, blind hole processing, QR code LCD glass marking, glassware surface drilling, etc.
