How many of you have actually gazed at the underside of a plastic container? If you have, then you may have found certain numbers or symbols. These are known as recycling codes, and these is critical because they tell you how to dispose or recycle the particular plastic accurately. But have you wondered about the method of printing those codes associated with containers? That is where laser engraver technology comes into the picture!
Fiber lasers mark plastic material optically at a very high clarity and accuracy using special kind of light beam. They are useful for many things — such as product identification, labeling and tracking while goods move across stores or factories. Laser marking is so accurate that it can produce marks as small as 0.01mm. This is specifically useful in reading barcodes and serial numbers easily.
Fiber laser marking technology is not just for plastic goods labeling. You can even use it to make artistic decorative designs or ample patterns on the surface. So for example, one might have noticed some plastic phone cases that has a design like it been engraved. Those eye-catching designs were probably created with fiber laser marking technology, which leaves a world of creative possibilities.
Fiber lasers can also integrate functional components into plastic products. As an example, they could identify the measurement lines on the sides of plastic containers, allowing for quick ingredient measurements when cooking or otherwise. This provides the ideal quantities without any guesswork which is really great while you are cooking something in your kitchen or doing your job.
For manufacturers of plastic components, fiber laser marking technology is a true game changer. With fiber lasers, manufacturers can mark their items for easy identification and tracking from the factory to store to home. This is all the more crucial for products with non-extendable lifetime applications such as, medical devices and electronic components, where knowledge of origin and manufacturing practices matter, for reasons of safety.
Fiber laser marking technology will be an essential part of transition to sustainable future, making sure that plastics are easily recycled & tracked. Flame engraved plastic products make them easily recognizable and sorts them, thus ensuring that their product can be accurately recycled. This also aids in recycling and cuts down on plastic waste.
Furthermore, fiber laser marking technology is also future proof. With our world being more digital than ever, fiber lasers will play a key role in the production of smart plastic products that can be implemented into different technologies. For instance, they can put unique identification codes on plastic items to track them all along their life cycle (production > recycling).
