Miyachi has released the newly updated ML-73 D series fibre laser markers, ideal for high-power and high-speed laser marking, laser engraving, laser ablation and laser annealing of metals, plastics and ceramics. The galvo scan head ML-73 D series markers are well suited for implantable medical devices, as well as automotive and electronic component applications.
The single- and multi-mode markers are designed with multiple integration options to accommodate standalone operation, full production automation or prototype development. The range includes models from 10 W to 100 W, and the most appropriate fibre laser marker is carefully matched to each specific marking application. With a range of user configurable options, the markers can be precisely tailored for optimised production.
The ML-73 D Series produces high-contrast marks on plastics, and excellent contrast and crispness of annealed and engraved marks. It is also suitable for laser deep engraving, laser foaming and laser bleaching.
The air-cooled, sealed industrial package is designed for operation in harsh environments. Its control software features industry standard programming for a wide range of marking options and types, a user-friendly Windows-based job editor, easy to import graphics, and support for multiple languages.
The marker motion unit is equipped with an integrated motion system allowing user control of as many as four stepper motors (typically XYZ and rotary). The integrated controllers feature easy configuration and control, with no extensive hardware requirements.
Designed with the system integrator in mind, the ML-73 D Series markers include several data input and output options to support marking and engraving applications performed in a job shop or in a fully automated production line. Also available is a variety of accessories, as well as standard and customised enclosures meeting Class 1 safety requirements.
