CO2 laser Engraving Machine
Description
A CO2 laser marking machine is a versatile tool used for marking and engraving a wide variety of materials using a carbon dioxide (CO2) laser beam. Here’s an overview of its features, operation, applications, and considerations:
Features and Operation:
Laser Source: CO2 lasers use a gas mixture primarily composed of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and helium to generate a laser beam with a wavelength typically around 10.6 micrometers (µm).
Marking Processes:
Etching: Removing material to create deep, permanent marks.
Surface Annealing: Heating the material surface to change its color or create contrast without removing material.
Foaming: Creating raised marks by inducing gas bubbles under the material surface.
Color Changing: Using heat to alter the color of certain materials, such as plastics.
