Galvo lasers are generally purchased for a specific application, for which they are optimized. A high degree of automation facilitates the marking process and the throughput time.
It Includes
- The high processing speeds of galvo lasers usually get individual jobs done within a few seconds. In order to maximize production capacity and reduce downtime occurring from loading and unloading, there are also semi-automatic work stations with round tables.
- Due to the compact structure of galvo lasers, they can be easily integrated into production lines. As a result, very high numbers of parts can be processed in the shortest possible time in fully automated operation.. Only the supply of new parts must be ensured. However, even this can also be largely automated by means of conveyor belts or other handling systems.
- Speed is a main advantage of the galvo laser, and the advantage is especially noticeable when you're working with thinner materials, such as paper, cardboard, foils, or thinner laminates. Depending on the application, 10 to approx. 65 times the speeds of a flatbed system can be achieved.
- Depending on the position within the marking field, however, the beam impacts onto the material at a greater or lesser angle of inclination. In the case of thicker materials, this slope of the cutting edge is clearly visible.
