It provides laser marking times at different power levels and focus tolerance values with 2D and 3D laser marking systems.

Laser Cleaning Performance for Metal Contaminants

This technical paper reports the cleaning speeds obtained for typical industrial contaminants, namely rust, paint, dust, oil, and mill scale.

Inline Integration of Shotblast Resistant Laser Marking in a Die Cast Cell

This white paper gives an extensive look into the development of Laserax's patent-pending shotblast resistant laser marking. For a quick overview read the application note.

Shotblast Resistant Laser Marking

Laserax has developed an exclusive patent-pending laser direct part marking process designed to withstand shotblasting. Get an overview of the process in this application note.

Analysis of Laser Marking Performance on Various Non-Ferrous Metals

Laser direct part marking (DPM) can be used on various non-ferrous metals to uniquely identify the product with a serialized identifier

Traceability and Laser Marking of Die Castings

Laser direct part marking on die castings allows improved traceability and provides invaluable information up and down the value chain.

Review of Technologies for Identification of Die Casting Parts

Traceability and Direct Part Marking of die castings are becoming a hot topic. Laser marking and other marking technologies used in the die-casting are compared in this paper.​

Surface Analysis Study of Laser Marking of Aluminum

This paper focuses on the study of laser marking on aluminum. Energy contained in the laser beam modifies the surface of aluminum in ways that creates white and black area.

Laser Marking and 3D Imaging of Aluminum Products

In this paper, first released for TMS 2017 Meeting and Exhibition, the authors explain how Laserax’s LXQ 3D Vision industrial laser marker successfully solves the problem of part positioning and profile acquisition of complex 3D shapes.

Important Consideration for Laser Marking an Identifier on Die Casting Parts

Direct part marking is a way to trace parts throughout the whole process of production and after in the use phase of the product. This practice is becoming a necessity in the die casting industry – as it is in many others. There are some challenges associated with the environment and the processes undergone by die castings. This includes short cycle time, surfaces that are not (perfectly) flat, high temperature, abrasive post-treatment. Laserax has developed solutions to these issues.
