Borries Introduces Efficient Diode-Pumped Laser Markers


Ann Arbor, MI -- Borries Marking Systems is introducing a diode-pumped laser marker which is a step beyond the traditional lamp type laser marker. Power required for the new diode-pumped marker is less than 20 watts, while the marker requires much less water cooling, a common trait of lamp type units with large chillers.

Suitable for marking a broad variety of metal and plastic parts and tags, the Borries diode-pumped marking laser is priced to be very competitive in the marking market. It is positioned as a cost-effective alternative to the markers that require higher wattage, which often dictates that the users buy more power than actually needed.

All components of the Borries diode-pumped laser marker are mounted in an air-conditioned cabinet. Power hook-up is the common 120v/60hz specification, with RS 232 and ethernet interface available.

An optional BC6 controller is available on the Borries diode-pumped laser marker to control various handling mechanisms such as foil transfers, tag feed systems, part shuttles, etc. The marker is controlled by a PC, with Pentium III microprocessor, and the controller is vented by a vacuum exhaust system with filter.

In the marker's cabinet, three compartments handle all the components: the actual marking station with Class 1 safety features, the control station and its electrical panel, plus the exhaust station. A powerful, low-noise vacuum cleaner keeps the marking area clean from gas and dust.

Special software has been developed by Borries for the diode-pumped laser marker. It consists of a system of Windows® programs linked to each other. The software provides visualization of data, machine status and process sequence as a "man-machine interface" providing comprehensive machine control.
