Blue lasers have emerged as a game-changer in the manufacturing industry, offering a host of benefits, across various applications, that add value to products, or streamline production processes while reducing costs.
Blue laser technology is constantly evolving and the use of blue laser sources in manufacturing systems provides significant advantages over conventional cutting and engraving machinery as well as CO2 and fibre laser sources alike.
With higher laser absorption rates compared to fibre and CO2 lasers, as well as remarkably 4-5 times lower power consumption than CO2 laser solutions, Opt Lasers’ blue lasers provide unparalleled process efficiency and precision at an affordable price. In addition, recently showcased at the Ligna 2023 trade fair on Felder Group’s Hammer CNC machine, the XT-50 laser head demonstrates Opt Lasers’ commitment to pushing the boundaries of blue laser technology.
Traditional options and CO2 lasers are now considered outdated, and fibre lasers are expensive while often performing worse than blue solutions. Blue laser systems provide higher absorption rates in manufacturing materials compared to other lasers.
This translates to greatly reduced operational costs and a greener and more precise approach to manufacturing, enabling manufacturers to achieve exceptional results in a shorter timeframe.
Blue lasers find extensive applications across multiple industries. Whether it’s engraving metals and ceramics or cutting and engraving wood, fabrics, textiles, leather, and dark opaque plastics, Opt Lasers’ blue lasers deliver outstanding performance.
In woodworking, blue galvo laser engravers offer exceptional capabilities for tasks like pallet engraving, ageing, blackening, and restructuring, as well as marking wood products.
In metalworking, blue lasers can process metals such as stainless steel, tool steel, Titanium, Tungsten Carbide, or Tungsten. They can be used for welding, burning, sintering, cladding, melting or metal hardening. Moreover, blue lasers excel in micro-welding copper, micro-soldering, soldering as well as welding metals or plastics together.
In the case of engraving metals, this is because of the innate preference of various metals for shorter wavelengths. The first graph below shows the absorption of different laser wavelengths for a selection of commonly used metals.
The second graph, on the other hand, shows the reflectivity of a wider selection of metals versus the laser wavelength used. The lower the reflectivity, the higher the laser absorption is.
