This permits the engraving of an unlimited mix of characters, patterns or codes without changing the lens aperture. This is achieved by replacing the usual lens with a specially designed image objective. The method is very fast – allowing the use of full pulse speed of an Excimer laser –and economical as a greater part of the laser energy can be applied. requires an aperture change.

Commonly, these lenses are pad printed to ease the work of optician finding semi or quasi invisible laser engravements indicating the properties of the lense. Until recently, lense manufacturers had to live with the pad printing machines major flaw of inflexibility. The L2M-MC-JET now provides great flexibility and gives the lense manufacturer great market advantage. The L2M-MC-JET replaces limited stamping mask changers – different images on the lenses are now simply placed by software. Thus, yearly running costs are greatly reduced. With the special L2M-MC-JET different lense geometries may follow in a mixed sequence. The lense geometry can either be determined by the L2M-MC-JET or –in a fully automated version – be retrieved from bar code and host computer. As an additional feature, the L2M-MC-JET also gives the opportunity to freely import any graphical data. This way, glasses and molds can also be added with individual company names and logos. The L2M-MC-JET is posed to become the flexible alternative to pad printing processes. Mostly because it is more flexible and no masks are needed. Any glass or mold can be individually inked with the information provided. The L2M-MC-JET not only lets you enjoy the higher flexibility –it also is far more economic regarding the costs of investment, yearly costs, and costs per glasses.

This fiber may be up to 8 m long. Only the weight of the laser head need to be moved to quickly and accurately position the laser focus over the work piece. This concept has the great advantage of securing very endurant, reliable micromachining equipments. This way, any multi dimensional accurate positioning becomes an almost easy task. Today, these industrial 19” fiber laser modules systems are already successfully implemented in applications requiring the integration on smallest area and demanding very high marking speeds. Among many others, examples of these applications include coding in the packaging industry or marking of electronic parts. Fiber laser marking systems are now providing an alternative solution to ink jet or mechanical engraving. The L2M-Fib-1064 modules are ready for integration into production lines. Bulky, big and difficult to access objects can be structured or marked as easily and comfortably as small and flat ones.

Ideally, one tool should be usable for metals, ceramics, and also for optically transparent substrates. The microPULSE 532/266 fulfil those demands in a very compact way. A simple software switch changed the wavelength between 532 nm and 266 nm and thus allows very flexible proceeding without waiting time. The exchange of the lens is as easy as loading a film of a camera. These two easy steps make the machine ready for the other wavelength in just an instant.

The L2M-F2-Excim157 permits material processing at fluences of up to 7 J/cm2 with a pulse energy of 20 mJ. The maximum field size on the sample is 240 by 240 µm2. Materials can be processed by single pulses, a burst of pulses, or time and position synchronized. The growing interest in fluor lasers for microstructuring is attributed to the short wavelength of 157 nm and the corresponding high photon energy of 7,9 eV. Photons of this energy are easily absorbed by a large range of materials including many band gap insulators. However, until recently fluor lasers suffered from high energy loss along the beam path. Existing fluor lasers need to run at maximum power to provide a minimum fluence at the workpiece. With the ingeniously new design of the beam path, the energy loss from the laser source to the workpiece is reduced tremendously. The advantages are significant: less laser power is needed resulting in a longer lifetime, the gas consumption is reduced, and the system handling is easier.

Substrates to be machined may be of any nature – say metals, alloys, ceramics, transparent material, or biological material. For that purpose, it would be best to have one universal tool suited for all of these substrates without need of reconfiguring or altering it. The resulting requirements of such a laser micromachining equipment are: degree of freedom regarding the positioning of the substrates open system concept for the integration of most different lasers or laser sources operated parallel flexible, upgradeable control concept for possible future integration of further components (for instance additional axes systems, additional optical components, etc.) With regard to the above requirements, Laser 2000 GmbH in cooperation with 3D-Micromac AG are presenting a system concept that provides exactly these features.
