Fiber laser
- Metals and many hard plastics.
- Serial numbers and Data Matrix that have to last.
Laser Printer
A Linx laser marks the code into the surface. Nothing to refill, nothing to smudge.
Zero
Inks, solvents, or ribbons to reorder
3 types
Fiber, CO2, and UV, matched to the material
Permanent
The mark is part of the surface
Overview
What it does.
Laser coding makes sense when the mark has to survive washdown, abrasion, or a long shelf life, and when you want the consumables bill to stop.
The right wavelength depends on the material. Fiber marks metals and hard plastics. CO2 marks glass, board, and many films. UV marks heat-sensitive plastics without scorching them. Linx builds all three, and we confirm the choice with a sample on your own pack.
Where it fits
- Metal parts and tools
- Glass bottles and jars
- Cartons and labels
- Heat-sensitive films and caps
Models
Choose the right one.
CO2 laser
- Glass, paperboard, and a wide range of films.
- Clean dates on cartons and labels.
UV laser, Linx UVG5
Current- Fine marks on heat-sensitive plastics and films.
- High contrast where a CO2 beam would scorch.
Wattage and lens are chosen after a sample test, so we do not list them here.
