Color laser marking, also known as color laser engraving, refers to adding color to the marking. "Mark" is the technical term for it. Color laser marking can mark materials with a variety of pigments. This technology has indeed been invented for 10 years. At first, it was first used in metalwork and jewelry. Manufacturers use color for laser marking or engraving. This makes their products more diverse and beautiful.
The advantages of color laser marking compared with ordinary marking machines
Color laser marking machine is one of the standard marking machines. The color laser marking machine adds other colors to the ordinary marking machine. Traditional conventional marking machines are gradually being replaced by laser color marking in various places. Color marking of stainless steel can be achieved by process annealing. Laser color markers can provide greater precision, speed and flexibility.
1. More colors
Color laser marking machine can mark more colors. This is the most significant advantage of color laser marking machine compared with ordinary laser marking machine. Color laser marking machines mainly use the latest digital technology. Use a laser beam to react on the surface of a metal or other material. Say goodbye to the monochrome era of laser marking! Laser marking is no longer monotonous!
Several material types for color laser marking.
1. Plastic
Plastic is a very frequently used material. Currently, color laser marking machines are also commonly used to hold plastics. Plastics can show color contrast with a color marker machine. This can make ordinary plastic appear different colors. For example, the red plastic marked by a color laser marker cannot be changed to another color later. Plastics produced in this way can be colorful.
2. Metal
Engraving metal by color laser marking machine is its most commonly used function. Especially the atomstack color laser marking machine marks on stainless steel. This is very popular in industrial applications. It can produce different colors on metal surfaces through different frequencies, speeds or focal lengths. Therefore, the color laser marking machine can make the untreated metal surface have richer colors.
Application of Color Laser Engraving
The application range of laser color marking machine is also very wide. It can also do the work that ordinary marking machines can do. And on the basis of the conventional marking machine, the scope of application has been expanded.
Jewelry: jewelry such as bracelets, pearls, etc., can add more beauty.
Nameplates: More Artistic and Unique
What are the effects of color laser marking during use?
(1) The working environment of the color laser engraving machine should be good, and the power supply voltage should be stable. If the voltage fluctuation is too large, a regulated power supply should be configured. The placement of the machine should pay attention to skills, and it cannot work in an environment with obvious vibration and humidity, because the speed and power of the color laser engraving machine will affect whether the color meets the standard. In this case, the marking color engraved on the engraved surface of the material will be more pure. The laser current cannot be too large, it must be below 20mA, and it must be as deep and fast as possible. Make sure the engraving is accurate enough.
(2) The laser tube is a heating body, and the quality and quantity of the circulating water must be guaranteed: quality - to ensure that it is clean and free of debris. The circulating water will be changed regularly (two days). The water must be changed when the machine is not working; volume - ensure sufficient circulating water (above 20Kg), and ensure that the circulating water temperature is 5-25 °C.
(3) In the case of meeting the functional requirements, the optimal working method is adopted to prolong the service life of the laser tube as much as possible. For example, try to use cutting programs.

Machines for Color Laser Engraving
1.Hispeed MOPA fiber laser marking machine
MOPA fiber laser marking machine uses a laser beam to scratch the surface of various substances. MOPA laser markers can draw in black and white on most metals and plastics, black on anodized aluminum, and color on stainless steel and titanium. The marking function exposes the underlying material by evaporating the surface material, thereby engraving exquisite patterns, logos and text. Also, this laser marking machine can be used for gorgeous patterns like serial numbers, barcodes, etc.
