Industries Using Laser Marking

Laser Marking in the Automotive Industry

The automotive industry has been leading the charge for making laser marking a standard when it comes to part marking and traceability. If a defect is found in an automobile, the manufacturer needs to identify all defective parts and track down when and where those parts were produced. Laser markinng plays an essential role in ensuring this traceability by creating clear and permanent marks containing all the relevant information.

Laser Marking in the Electric Vehicle Industry

Amid growing exhuast regulations around the world, the development of electric vehicles is accelerating. The components needed for electric vehicles differ drastically from the conventional gas vehicle; however, similar to gas vehicles all these components need some form of identification or traceability marks. The intricacies of electrical components like batteries, connectors, converters, inverters, ECU's, etc. make traceability a concern for most marking methods. Laser making on the other hand delivers the precision, quality, and permanency that alleviates these concerns.

Laser Marking in the Battery Industry

The demand for vehicle batteries is increasing. EV, PHV, and HV vehicles are growing in popularity, and mobile charging terminals are a common sight. These vehicles are, of course, all powered by lithium-ion batteries. EV, PHV, and HV vehicle manufacturers choose cylindrical, prismatic, and pouch-type lithium batteries. All these battery types require different care, processing, and assembly, but they can benefit from laser processing. Laser marking and laser processing play an important role in the battery manufacturing process, from managing part traceability to improving part quality.

Laser Marking in the Medical Industry

Medical devices are crucial tools used to diagnose, prevent, or treat various conditions or illnesses. Since these tools are life-altering, they follow a strict regulatory guidline to ensure saftey and quality, which require permanent traceability marks that can be read by humans and machines. Since the majority of medical instuments are small and designed to be used repeatedly after undergoing a disinfection or sterilization process, permanent and legible traceability is difficult. Labels or ink cannot be used in these cases, but laser marking provides the ideal solution for this direct part marking.
