Technifor has expanded the company's laser offer with the integration of its TG400 green laser. Featuring a 532 nm wavelength, the solution permits the marking of materials that do not interact well with conventional laser sources such as Nd:YAG, YVO4, fibre or CO2.
The solution is driven by Technifor's desire to answer the needs of markets that include medical, electronics and plastics by delivering technology that is capable of marking sensitive materials such as silicon, reflective metals (copper, silver, gold), printed circuits, ceramics and a range of plastics. The TG400 laser enables surface marking with a reduced heat-affected zone, thus avoiding material damage or distortion.
Exceptionally fine (30 µm), the beam is said to deliver the marking quality required for small characters and Data Matrix codes. This is aided by intuitive software, whereby the operator can communicate in a few clicks with databases, and import codes, images and logos.
