GRAVIS MOPA marking laser for metals

The Gravis fiber laser with 20W MOPA fiber laser beam source currently costs €19,500.00 net.

The cost of purchasing a laser marking system varies depending on the specific requirements and the desired performance of the system. Factors such as the laser power, the work surface, the automated functions and the marking software influence the price.

Laser marking with a Fiber laser is based on a precise process in which a high-intensity laser beam is used to create permanent markings on various surfaces.

The fiber laser generates a bundled beam of light that is focused on the material to be marked.

The targeted effect of the laser on the material creates a marking that can include various shapes, symbols, texts or barcodes, depending on the application.

Fiber lasers are extremely versatile and can mark a wide range of materials, including metals, non-ferrous metals, plastics, glass and ceramics.

This makes GLT's modern marking lasers an ideal solution for various industries, including, for example

• Automotive industry
• Metalworking industry
• Aviation industry
• Electronics industry
• Jewelry industry

Compared to traditional marking methods, laser marking with a fiber laser offers numerous advantages.

This includes

• high precision
• Permanent and tamper-proof markings
• a fast processing speed
• Non-contact labeling
• Low maintenance requirements
• the possibility to realize complex designs.

Fiber laser marking systems are used in a wide range of applications, including the permanent and tamper-proof marking of serial numbers, data codes, logos, barcodes, 2D codes, text and graphics on parts and products in various industries.

They are also used to personalize gifts, advertising materials and individual products.

The operating costs for a fiber laser marking laser mainly include energy consumption. As the devices are very low-wear and hardly any mechanical movements take place, the ancillary costs for filter inserts for the extraction system, for example, are often higher than for the operation of the laser itself. The exact operating costs vary depending on the duration of use, the intensity of use and the specific requirements of the marking process.

Yes, the markings created with a fiber laser are generally permanent and resistant to external influences such as abrasion, chemicals, UV radiation and temperature fluctuations, making them ideal for many applications.

Marking lasers can generate various types of barcodes, including linear barcodes such as EAN, UPC, Code 39 and Code 128 as well as 2D codes such as QR codes and DataMatrix codes. 

The power of a fiber laser has a direct influence on the maximum marking field size that the laser system can achieve. Higher power models generally enable larger marking fields and more flexibility. The larger the marking field, the larger the spot size of the laser beam. A larger spot size significantly reduces the effective power of the system, so laser systems with larger marking fields should also have a higher power to compensate for this disadvantage.
