3D FAYb Laser Marker LP-ZV

Features

High-definition marking by short-pulse laser with a pulse duration of 1 ns (LP-ZV200P / LP-ZV205P / LP-ZV206P)

Panasonic Industry has realized a fiber laser marker system with a short pulse duration of 1 ns by maximizing its original technologies. The new fiber laser marker series minimizes the adverse effects of heat and provides sharp and clear markings.

Clear marking with sharp edges

The short-pulse laser minimizes thermal effect while the high-frequency oscillation achieves clear marking of extremely small and fine characters. Shallow engraving results in easy-tosee white markings and code sections with sharp and clear edges.
This contributes to the excellent visibility of small characters and stable scanning of two-dimensional codes.

Wide marking field of 330 × 330 mm 12.992 × 12.992 in (LP-ZV206P / LP-ZV506P)

Conventionally, markings on large workpieces or on workpieces made with multi-cavity molds required multiple marking operations. The wide marking field enables large size marking in a single marking operation.
This not only improves productivity but also reduces the number of required units or simplifies the facility construction to contribute to cost reduction.

The Z-axis stroke mechanism controls the laser beam focus in the Z direction so that the focal distance can be set within a wide range of 50 mm 1.969 in. This results in beautiful markings on stepped surfaces, inclined surfaces, spherical surfaces, etc. without blurriness or distortion.
The wide range also eliminates the need for a setup change when workpieces with different heights are sent on the same line, so production of additional models can be easily handled.

Built-in camera for positioning

Positioning can be performed while viewing the marking / processing data created using the Laser Marker NAVI smart software and the image captured by the built-in camera in the head on the same screen. Compared with the conventional red guide laser indication, the color image allows easier confirmation of positioning.
Furthermore, the internal light in the head enables positioning even in a dark place such as the inside of a machine.

High-output 52-W* type suitable for deep engraving and takt time reduction (LP-ZV500P / LP-ZV505P / LP-ZV506P)

*Oscillator average output
It generally requires a long time to mark a two-dimensional code or to perform deep engraving in a casting process or the like. These laser marker models reduce the marking / processing times and offer enhanced cycle time follow-up performance.

CO₂ emissions and electricity cost reduced to about half as compared to other systems

Companies are striving to contribute to SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) and achieve sustainability. In many cases, a CO₂ emission reduction target is set for each business division.
Panasonic Industry has developed a fiber oscillating type laser marker by utilizing its proprietary technologies. Its CO₂ emission is about half of that from a product using a different system (such as YAG system, YVO4 system, etc.). Furthermore, the running cost (cost of electricity) can also be reduced to half. Sustainability and low cost are great advantages, especially for facilities that will be used for many long years to come.

[Estimation conditions]Emission factor: 0.457 kg-CO2/kWh, laser marker operation: 8 hours/day, 20 days/month, continuous laser irradiation at 100% laser power

Fan-less with IP64 ingress protection for reliable operation even in harsh environments

The fan-less structure prevents the entry of water and dust into the head for trouble-free operation.

Fiber unit attachment / detachment mechanism

In the case of a conventional product with inseparable controller and head unit, the head unit weighing more than 10 kg must be handled manually during installation and for maintenance. The fiber unit attachment / detachment mechanism allows removal of the fiber unit from the head. It contributes to the reduction of man-hours required for installation and maintenance.

Software to support marking / processing operations Laser Marker NAVI smart

Simple marking setting and excellent maintainability reduce man-hours required for installation and operation.

Interchangeable with Panasonic Industry's conventional models

The LP-ZV series laser markers are interchangeable*1 with Panasonic Industry's conventional models. They can replace previous models with minimal man-hours. Not only the mounting position but also marking data and communication commands are interchangeable.
