Laser Marking & Cleaning Drivetrains

Fiber lasers provide important advantages for the identification of ring gears and pinions. They can etch 2D codes that maintain traceability through phosphate coating and heat treatments.

To ensure a strong assembly, the same laser can also selectively remove phosphating from certain areas without affecting the metal underneath.

Laserax offers complete laser solutions that include vision, validation, dust extraction, and a lot more.

Benefits Of Laser Marking For Ring Gears And Pinions

  • Get rid of human errors that occur when entering data manually
  • Etch high-quality codes that withstand phosphating & heat treating
  • Keep up with short cycle times and minimize downtime
  • Adapt the marking configuration to multiple parts
  • Validate codes automatically so that no defective codes make it into the manufacturing process
  • Automatically log scanned data in your database
  • Know the exact origin of defects to avoid large recalls

We used to stick paper notes to our trays to note down the part model. Our operators made frequent mistakes when copying the information. We decided to add laser marking with barcode validation to eliminate these errors. Since then, our OEM clients haven’t made a single return. 

One of the biggest worries we had was that adding the laser to our cell would create a bottleneck. But after months of testing, I can say it did not slow down production.

The last recall was expensive, so we had to fix the problem quickly. The root cause was the phosphate layer which led to reliability problems on our ring gears. The solution Laserax provided fixed the problem by removing phosphate from the problematic areas only.
