What is the base cost of an inline pcb etcher? Specs: fiducial alignment, smema interface, 400mm x 400mm marking area. Will be used to mark panel 2d codes, pcb array 2d codes, and human readable. Thanks Gm

Laser Marking stations generally accept the product, clamp it in place, then through a motion platform move the product underneath the laser head. Marking is generally conducted with a CO2 laser ranging between 20 to 30 watts. You will loose 20% thro

We've been using lasers to mark barcodes on our boards for some time now. We use a CO2 laser to burn through the solder mask on most of our boards. The machine is enclosed so the operators aren't exposed to the laser. The laser is also mounted on

hello though more than a month has passed since you replied to my massage i will be more than happy to ask you several questions about the laser marking machine your company uses. my mail is : itamarc@visonic.com many thanks itamar

For laser marking you don�t require as powerful lasers then for cutting. A 20 Watt laser diode does already a good job. Because of the safety requirements the laser operates in an enclosure, which means more $$$ if you want to use the laser in line

I am looking at putting a laser or ink jet marking system for barcoding of pcb's in our smt production area. As and inline system it will need the capability to handle different size boards. We use dark green pcb's except for couple red and blues m

Barcode needs a light colour backgroup so that the scanner can read. No way you can mark on the solder mask and become readable. I found most of the time the investment cannot be paid back within 5 years. Most of the time it is product requirement th

We've been using pre-printed labels on our PCB's for years, with 8 - 10 hours a week down time associated with them. Last October we put a CO2 laser marker on one of our lines. In 6 months we've had a total of 30 minutes down time. We use a 2D b

I agree. The bar coded label you use should not be affected by the solder mask of the board. The label should have sharp contrast between the segments of the code to modulate the returned light and allow the reader to discriminate between light and
