Laser Marking PLA contains a laser-sensitive additive optimized to work within a 980-1064 nm wavelength. The material has been tested successfully with a Nd:YAG- and fiberlasers. Laser marking PLA will not work with CO2 lasers.
Laser Marking PLA is available in a light grey color to start with, close to RAL9018 but not an exact match.
Laser marking has various advantageous over conventional marking technologies.
- Markings are permanent, waterproof, wear and heat resistant, lightfast and resistant to chemicals.
- Flexibility in marking design.
- No pre or post-treatment required.
