The infrared fiber laser is an advanced tool used in industrial marking for its precision and versatility. The characteristic infrared wavelength interacts effectively with all metallic materials and some plastic materials. This technology allows for permanent, high-resolution markings without consumables, ensuring high-quality results. The fiber laser offers significant advantages in terms of marking speed and quality, making them ideal for applications in sectors such as automotive, electronics, and promotional products. The versatility and customization capabilities make the laser an indispensable tool for product traceability and branding.
The infrared fiber laser uses an optical fiber doped with rare elements, such as ytterbium, to amplify the laser beam, producing a wavelength of 1064nm. This makes the laser particularly suitable for interacting with metallic materials and some types of plastics. Fiber technology offers high electrical efficiency, long lifespan, and reduced maintenance thanks to the solid structure and resistance of optical fibers. The ability to focus the laser beam on an extremely small point allows for very high resolution and precise markings, ideal for 1D and 2D codes, QR codes, and complex details. Furthermore, the possibility to vary the modulation frequency over a wide range allows for high scanning speeds without compromising quality, increasing production efficiency. The precise and instantaneous power control allows for customized markings for different applications, making the fiber laser an excellent choice for traceability, identification, and product customization processes in highly competitive sectors.

In this mode, the laser operates without a control PC, making it suitable for integration into production lines where space is limited. No operator interface is necessary, and installation time is significantly reduced.
In an automated environment, as an alternative to FlyCAD, there is the FlyPowermark software with a completely customizable operator interface. We can manage various data input methods, for example, access to the company’s factory system (database, web services, TCP/IP protocols). Furthermore, being potentially able to manage an infinite number of lasers, it is possible to design the application to simultaneously control all the lasers present on the production line.
