Videojet: CO2 laser marking system
Videojet Technologies has introduced the 3640 60 W laser marking system, engineered to process complex codes at the highest speeds, with the industry's widest mark field.
The new laser offers the widest marking field in the industry, compared to other leading 60 W lasers on the market, increasing throughput and productivity for manufacturers. It can cover up to a 600 mm marking field width, allowing certain wide-web applications to be addressed with the least amount of lasers, freeing up both space and capital to invest elsewhere.
The system is designed to produce high-quality codes on products especially in the pharmaceutical, tobacco and high-speed beverage markets. The 3640 CO2 laser solution offers enhanced speeds in data processing and communication, helping customers to code more products on the production line faster.
The Videojet 3640 has the ability to process over 1,000 variable codes/min. with dot matrix and four lines of text in the tobacco industry, with no noticeable lag. Additionally, manufacturers can start coding their products straight away, with no need to wait for data buffering to be complete, again saving manufacturers time and money on the production line.
Pharmaceutical manufacturers can benefit from the coder by marking up to 600 GS1 codes and five lines of text/min., while beverage manufacturers have the ability to mark over 80,000 bottles/hr. with up to three lines of text.
