A new laser marking system, offering fast and flexible non-contact marking with superior accuracy and quality, is now available from Townsend Coates. The system consists of the LM45 Q-switched Nd:YAG laser marker integrated with the ergonomically designed MW workstation – both from Unitek Miyachi Lasers(see Plate 8).
Utilising high speed X-Y galvanometers, the laser beam is directed to the work surface through a flat field lens, producing a 7.5 inch square marking area. Laser spot diameters as small as 0.002" produce clean, crisp,high-contrast marks over the entire marking area. The LM45 is capable of directly and permanently marking a wide range of materials including metals,plastics, semiconductors, and ceramics. Using EZ-MarkTM the company's proprietary Windows-based software and standards-based networking structures,the LM45 can accept data in a variety of formats (.dxf, .jpg, .bmp, .tif, etc.),and apply the mark using any True Type font, machine-readable code, or specialised graphic image.

The LM45 laser marking system includes a built-in fume extractor and optical readers to form a fully self-contained unit capable of handling the entire laser marking process for any application.
Its compact design means the system occupies minimum floor space, fitting easily into a variety of production environments.
