Industrial Marking and Engraving Applications with High-energy UV Lasers
Industrial ultraviolet (UV) laser marking and engraving is an important field with a wide range of applications and requirements. We previously described UV laser marking applications with demanding requirements for precision (applications note no. 45) as well as in the food and beverage segment (applications note no. 48). Driven by the success of UV laser marking and engraving applications, this technology is on the rise in many different market segments, and engineers are striving to find solutions to benefit from the high flexibility of such marking and engraving systems. On the other hand, new material, geometries, throughput, costs, and compliance requirements are driving the laser industry to develop new solutions especially in dynamic markets such as mobile devices with 5G technology, electric vehicles, and renewable energy
