The advantages of laser marking machine compared with the traditional inkjet printer

Post by lasercutting »

Laser marking technology is a more advanced technology than inkjet coding. The application of laser marking machine in Chinese market is just beginning, but the trend of development is rapid. Laser marking machine greatly improves the existing problems of traditional inkjet printer, improves the reliability and flexibility of equipment, and is suitable for all kinds of metal and non-metal materials. The working principle of the laser marking machine is to gather the laser with a very high energy density on the surface of the object to be engraved, and in a very short period of time, vaporize the material in its surface layer and accurately burn the delicate pattern or text by controlling the effective displacement of the laser beam. So laser marking is the most green and safe marking device.

The advantages of laser marking machine are as follows:
1.Reduce production cost, reduce material consumption and improve production efficiency;
2.The anti-counterfeiting effect is obvious, and the laser marking technology can effectively inhibit the product identification and counterfeiting;
3.It is beneficial for product tracking and recording. The laser marking machine can produce the batch number production date, shifts, etc. of the product. It can make each product have good tracking performance;
4.Increase the additional value, which makes the product look higher grades and improve the brand awareness of products;
5.The equipment is reliable. The laser marking machine has a mature industrial design with stable and reliable performance, it can work continuously for 24 hours, and the laser free maintenance time is over 20,000 hours. Wide range of temperature adaptation(5 ℃ - 45 ℃) and it is widely applied in LED industry assembly line production areas;
6.Environmental protection and safety. The laser marking machine does not produce any chemicals that are harmful to human body and environment. Accord with GB7247-87; GB10320-88 standard. It is an environment-friendly high-tech product.
7.The laser marking machine can mark a large amount of data in a very small range. the laser can be marked on the product material itself with a very fine beam. The marking accuracy is very high and the control is accurate, clear and perfect interpretation of the print content, with strong market competitiveness. At the same time, it is environmentally safe and has no corrosiveness. It completely isolates chemical pollution. It is also a kind of intimate protection for operators, which ensures clean and tidy production sites, reduces late investment, and reduces noise pollution.

It can be concluded from the above that the laser marking machine has unique advantages in products requiring fine marking, and the inkjet printer will gradually be replaced by the laser marking machine.

Re: The advantages of laser marking machine compared with the traditional inkjet printer

In this increasingly fast-paced city, the attention to products of the consumers pay shorter and shorter. Therefore, it is not simple to stand out among in a large number of goods! Mainly in two aspects, on the one hand, people are paying more and more attention to the packaging of products, especially to the aesthetics of labels. According to the survey, more than 60% of consumers generally decide to purchase products based on the external packaging of the products and the appearance of the labels. Therefore, only by attracting the attention of consumers can we make our products stand out. On the other hand, companies are attaching more and more importance to the anti-counterfeit packaging of products. They can be used for anti-counterfeiting through the complex shape design of labels and the size of the labels. As a result, companies have established an image in packaging and branding. A device that can print in space -- the inkjet printer came into being. Classified by consumables, inkjet printers can be divided into laser printers and inkjet printers. So today we will compare the advantages and disadvantages of the two.

1. Both of them have anti-counterfeiting effect
Laser printer: Printed information is directly marked on the surface of the product. The mark can be scribed or dot matrix. The visual effect of the mark is unique. The mark is clear and permanent and cannot be erased and changed. The anti-counterfeiting effect is obvious. Ink printers: The markings are clear but easy to erase and change. In general, the use of ink jet printers has limited anti-counterfeiting effect. Now, the newly introduced stealth inks have better anti-counterfeit effects and have features that are not easy to find and have good concealment.

2. Working status
Laser printers use on-line, high-speed, non-stop laser markings for high productivity,which can be static and can work under high-speed flow conditions. The inkjet printer can only use the online type, production without pause, high production efficiency. Some inkjet printers may have ink jamming that can affect the production. Most customers use both inkjet printers and laser printers. Therefore, these two types of coded devices use complementary relationships.

3. Flexibility
Laser printer: Printed content can include serial numbers, lot numbers, bar codes, Two dimensional code, logo and pattern, etc. The number of print lines and font size are not limited. Inkjet printer: Bar codes, lot numbers and simple patterns can be used, and the number of print lines and font sizes are limited. The laser coder is affected by the material, and the ink jet printer has stronger application and adaptation surfaces.

4. Reliability
Laser printer: stable and reliable performance, which can work continuously throughout the day. Maintenance free time is up to 20,000 hours. Inkjet printer: The performance is basically stable, but the failure rate is relatively high. The nozzle will be clogged due to changes in the ambient temperature, humidity, and dust. The workload of maintenance is large and greatly affected by the environment. In terms of equipment reliability, the laser printer is slightly better.

5. Operation and use
Laser printer: Intuitive Windows software (WindowsXp), whose display interface has a high resolution and a clear picture. Make printing information easy to set up and edit. Inkjet printer: simple display interface with low resolution. Printed information can only be edited and processed normally as a date printing device of production.

6. The price
The one-time cost of the inkjet machine is relatively low, and the price is relatively cheap. However, the cost of marking a single workpiece is high, and the average total input cost is higher (manual, consumables, and annual average price). Laser printers have a one-time high investment, and the price is relatively expensive, but the cost of a single is low, and the average total input cost is lower (manual, consumables, and annual average price).

7. Operating costs
Laser printers: The operating costs are extremely low, so no plans to stop production. The equipment can be maintenance-free operation for a long time, without any consumables, zero operating costs. Ink jet printer: The inkjet printer consumes a large amount of special ink and solvent, and the consumption of consumables is large. In addition, the cost of replacing nozzles and other accessories is high, requiring special maintenance personnel, and there is no plan to stop production, resulting in indirect losses. The cost of consumables for a printer is between 0.5 and 20,000.

8. Data processing capabilities
Laser printer: The control host directly adopts industrial control computer, has powerful data processing capability, can connect all anti-counterfeit data systems, and meet the needs of multi-level anti-counterfeiting. Inkjet printer: It adopts single-chip microcomputer control, limited data processing capacity, and few anti-counterfeiting functions.

9. Environmental safety
Laser printer: It does not produce any substances that are harmful to the environment and human body. It produces surface nicks on objects to be printed. It is an environmentally friendly high-tech product. It has been widely used in food and drug production. In line with GB7247-87; GB10320-88 standard. However, laser engraving produces smoke, which can generally be handled by a smoke exhaust system. Ink-jet printers: Ink and solvent are highly volatile substances that produce more chemical toxic residues and pollute the environment. In addition, the chemical composition and odor of ink and solvent may completely infiltrate the object to be marked, which is a product gradually replaced by the international community.
