laser marking products are compatible with most polymers and can be used with all laser types to provide high levels of contrast and shading. These formulations achieve line detail at impressive speeds on plastics that have historically been difficult to laser mark. Designed for thermal chemical surface reactions, these formulations are ideal for fiber, YAG, and vanadate lasers operating at a wavelength of 1060-1070 nm. we utilize additives, fillers, pigments, and dyes to enhance the absorption of laser energy for localized color changes. Vastly different formulation chemistries and laser optics/setup parameters are used depending upon the plastic being marked, as well as the desired marking contrast and functionality.
