The application of laser marking machine in the cable industry


Wire and cable is a must for our daily production due to its special characteristics. The structure size of wire and cable is usually small and uniform, so it requires high marking accuracy. Laser marking machine as the most advanced marking equipment, because of its marking permanent and other characteristics, can meet the needs of the industry clear, is replacing the traditional spray coding equipment, received wire and cable manufacturers welcome. The following follow the Gold Mark laser to understand the application of laser marking machine in the cable industry.

The application of laser marking machine in the cable industry

Cable industry in order to distinguish the product brand, identify the product type, meter counting, etc., the cable will have a variety of signs. Nowadays, most cable manufacturers use inkjet coding machines for coding. Ink jet code, pollution and the use of high costs, ink consumption is huge. It is understood that the cost of ink purchased by a medium-sized enterprise a year to reach 400,000-500,000 or even millions. And with the upgrading of industry requirements, inkjet coding has been unable to meet industry requirements.

Nowadays, laser marking machine (alias: laser coding machine, laser coding machine) into the cable industry, laser with outstanding advantages, can meet the needs of the industry clear, durable and other requirements, the popularity of the cable industry. Laser coding machine used in the cable industry, meaning that the date of the cable product, batch number, brand, serial number, two-dimensional code and other signs once sprayed on can never be changed, to play a greater anti-counterfeiting role; means that you can resist a part of the counterfeit, to prevent illegal manufacturers have the opportunity to take advantage of; means that you can play a certain role in resisting the chaos of the wire and cable industry, thereby improving the quality of wire and cable products. Laser coding equipment upfront investment costs will be a little higher, but it does not have any consumables, power consumption is also relatively low, the long-term benefits are definitely more.

The current cable coding laser is mainly divided into: carbon dioxide laser marking machine, fiber laser marking machine, ultraviolet laser marking machine

Among them, carbon dioxide laser marking machine, fiber laser marking machine by burning the cable surface to form a discoloration, will form damage to the surface of the cable, and there is smoke.

UV laser marking machine 355nm short wavelength, belongs to the cold laser, mainly by breaking the cable surface of the plastic chemical molecular bond to form the color change, no damage to the cable surface. And adapt to a variety of materials, more and more cables in the future will use UV laser marking machine to spray code.

Fiber laser marking machine

Laser marking is the use of laser beams on the surface of a variety of different materials marked with a permanent mark.

The UV laser is a “cold process” that interrupts the chemical bonds within the material (especially organic materials) or the surrounding medium, to the point where the material is destroyed by non-thermal processes to achieve a color change reaction. This cold process has special significance in laser marking because it is not thermal ablation, but rather a cold peel that breaks the chemical bonds without the side effect of “thermal damage” and therefore does not produce heating or thermal deformation on the inner layer of the surface being processed or the surrounding area.

At present, in the non-transparent plastic products, flexible film packaging, cable and tube industries, UV has good application due to good absorption and low thermal damage.

Jinan Gold Mark CNC Machinery Co., Ltd. is a high-tech industry enterprise specialized in researching, manufacturing and selling the machines as follows: Laser Engraver, Fiber Laser Marking Machine, CNC Router.
