Applications

Engineering plastics are widely used in the automotive world. They possess properties such as wear resistance, flame resistance and light weight that make the material ideal for applications in different parts of vehicles, specific variants can be developed to meet the needs of specific applications. For marking…

Marking clear plastic with high definition, quality and visibility is one of the biggest challenges in laser marking. The CO2 equipment, by emitting an infrared light spectrum, melts the plastic without generating contrast. Therefore, by reducing the wavelength with equipment…

One of the keys to controlling the evolution of COVID-19 and combating its spread is performing diagnostic tests and tracking infections. In the case of diagnostic tests, in addition to the well-known PCR tests, antigen tests are a very useful…

The marking of plastic parts by means of laser technology, in this case, laser marking at two heights on a plastic switch, is a tool increasingly used ahead of techniques such as screen printing or stamping. One of the keys…

Coding and marking in PET applications PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) is a plastic material commonly used in the drinks industry, especially for plastic cups, but also in other industries such as textiles. Its main application is transparent plastic, which is achieved…

The electronic components industry uses a wide variety of plastics due to the varied functions required and the properties they provide. In general, plastics can be marked with fiber or DPSS lasers, the latter providing a better response for contrast generation.…

One of society's most important challenges is the sustainability of the planet and the role effective recycling plays within that. That is why the packaging industry is constantly innovating to develop products that are recyclable and have minimal impact on…

Polypropylene is a type of thermoplastic that, thanks to its strength and light weight properties, is increasingly used in various types of applications, especially in the food industry. In fact, polypropylene is a versatile and fully recyclable plastic, which means that…

The beverage industry is one of the industries with the highest production rates. In most of these factories, the hourly production of beverage cans is around 80,000 cans per hour. Since it requires coding of several lines of text, marking…

On other occasions we have seen examples of marking in the pharmaceutical industry to comply with the appropriate regulations corresponding to the FDA's Unique Device Identification (UDI) or the European Union's Falsified Medicines Directive (FMD). In this case, we go…
