Inline Laser marker machine

Marking accuracy:+/-0.01mm

Laser Marker machine, is used for direct laser marking of solder resist on PCBs.

The laser assembly is mounted above the transport system on a linear X/Y axis. The PCB to be marked is taken over onto the transport system and transported into the marking position.

The laser now moves to a pre-programmed position and marks the predefined content, such as barcode, data-matrix codes, plain text or logos onto the product.

The right laser, whether CO2, UV or fiber laser, can be integrated for every application. A variety of materials such as solder resist, metals, plastics or ceramics can be marked.

For the traceability process, Vanstron offers standardized interfaces to MES systems or implements customer-specific connections.

Marking Quality

The built-in camera captures an image of the target before and after marking. The images are then compared and checked for differences in contrast to identify missing markings.

The contents of a marked code can be read by the built-in 2D code reader, then verified in accordance with marking quality standards.

By adopting excellent graphic programming and database technology, we can accurately make different levels of judgment on the engraving quality of the QR code, and this system is calibrated with the scanner of Keyence to ensure that there is no error in the judgment

Barcode quality verification by Keyence scanner

Barcode quality verification by Keyence scanner (Optional)

BEST Example – barcode on Green PCB

It has a bright pattern with dark background, so it has good contrast ratio and good scan rate. The marking quality is excellent because the size of the marking DOT and the margin are the same(equidistant interval).

Bad Contrast Example – barcode on Red PCB

Most scanners use red LEDs for lighting. At this time, the red PCB strongly reflects the red LED, so the brightness difference between the barcode and the PCB color is reduced, resulting in a lower scan rate. If you are marking on a red PCB, the reading rate can be improved by using white illumination. However the reading rate may drop if other colors are going to be used under the same illumination. Therefore, it is very important to check the colors of the boards that are going to be used at customer’s site in advance.

Marking stability accuracy

To ensure the marking stability accuracy, the galvanometer plays an important role in the output of laser beam, while in Vanstron ONLY selected the Germany brand galvanometers as the best choice, which allow us to ensure the perfect accuracy and stability of printing results

High-speed scanning & marking

A high-quality galvanometer is the important elements for a high-performance laser marker machine, when the galvanometer quickly and accurately change the propagation direction of the laser beam, which greatly improves the marking speed and meets the needs of efficient production.

In some electronic components requiring fine marking, the high precision of the galvanometer can ensure the accurate position and shape of the mark; In large-scale production, the high-speed scanning of the galvanometer can quickly complete the marking of many products and improve production efficiency.
