LXQ-LP Series – 10W & 20W Fiber Laser Marking Systems
With its simplicity of design and low output power, the LXQ-LP is our most affordable fiber laser marker. It is specifically designed to be easily integrated in production lines or manually operated marking stations where cycle time is not a constraint.
The LXQ-LP also has marking capabilities that prevent on-site mechanical adjustments. Coupled with its high reliability, it is the perfect tool to minimize your investment without compromising quality.
A High Return on Investment
Low Operational Costs
Running on electricity alone, our fiber laser markers are extremely energy efficient. They’re also practically maintenance free. Built with components that have a proven reliability record, they show no signs of fatigue when it comes to marking quality and speed, even when operating 24/7 for more than 10 years.
Preconfigured for Quick Start
The laser marker and its optional peripherals are delivered preconfigured, pre-calibrated and pre-tested with the best configuration for each application. Controlled using PROFINET or Ethernet/IP, the modules include a web-based HMI software to rapidly take control of the laser as well as quick start programs for PLCs.
Easy Installation
Easy to integrate, our low-power laser systems have a lightweight laser head with a small footprint. The accompanying modules are fastened to a standard 19-inch rack frame so you can install the whole setup without complications.
No Mechanical Adjustments
With much better marking capabilities than other lasers on the market, the LXQ-LP prevents complex mechanical designs so you can reduce integration costs. Our laser configuration offers the greatest flexibility in terms of marking field and positioning tolerance.
Class-1 Laser Certification Service
To simplify integration and prevent safety issues, our laser experts can work with you to safely enclose your solutions in accordance with international standards. You can work with us to design custom enclosures, or you can integrate a complete solution with our standard enclosures.
Real-Time Remote Support
We understand that you may need help from laser experts to quickly deal with issues during integration. Wherever you are, you can use the remote support platform embedded in the laser controller to grant full control of the laser to our experts. This feature can be used for remote installation support, training and after-sales support. On-site support is also available.
Laser System Options
Laser Power
The LXQ-LP is available with 10W or 20W of output power.
For high-speed applications, 30W to 100W fiber lasers are available as part of the LXQ Series, and 200W to 500W fiber lasers as part of the LXQ-HP series.
Lens Configuration
Our standard lens provides the best optical configuration for most part marking requirements. The marking field is large, and the marking distance is long enough to reduce dust accumulation on the lens.
Our advanced lens is used to obtain a laser engraver. This configuration helps the laser create deep engravings into the material to create more durable markings. It can also be used or to texture surfaces.
Barcode Validation
If you have part traceability needs, our barcode validation system and Cognex camera validate marking quality as soon as 2D codes are marked. The camera is delivered preconfigured and only needs to be connected to the controller’s back panel.
Air-Knife
Installed on the lens to protect it, the air-knife blows a continuous airstream that prevents dust accumulation. This guarantees consistent high-quality results and greatly reduces lens cleaning maintenance.

Applications
The LXQ-LP is a fiber laser marking systems that creates permanent marks on all types of metals, rubber and plastics. It can be used for all types of identifiers, such as serial numbers, data matrix codes, QR codes and logos.
 |
Fiber Laser EtchingLaser etching is the fastest industrial laser process. Instead of removing part of the material, the laser etches a permanent, raised mark by melting the part’s micro surface. |
 |
Fiber Laser EngravingLaser engraving produces the most durable markings, but it also requires more time. The laser beam digs deep into the metal part, reaching the high temperature required to vaporize the material. |
 |
Fiber Laser AnnealingIdeal for stainless steel and chrome-plated parts, laser annealing creates permanent markings through a chemical reaction under the surface. Nothing is removed, making sure that the part preserves important properties like corrosion resistance. |
 |
Fiber Laser Marking MachinesThe LXQ-LP is an industrial laser that can easily be integrated in production lines. You can view our laser marking machines for automation examples, standalone workstations and more. |
Complete Remote Service Whenever You Need It
Laser technology has never been so accessible. With remote support functionalities embedded in our controller, you can get quick technical support wherever you are. If you activate a remote gateway, our laser experts and engineers can take full control of the laser to better support you.
Our technology is completely secure: it uses a secure cloud VPN, a web-based VNC or HMI, and a direct connection to a camera and to the laser system.
