You may saw different supplier provide different laser source, like Germany supplier like provide IPG laser source, America supplier may provide SPI, Wuhan company maybe suggest Raycus laser source, Shenzhen company provide Max laser source, some maybe provide JPT laser source, you can see most of supplier will provide their local laser source. which one will be good choice for you?
First let us know what's the laser source? If you are not new for laser machine, then you can over this sentence, laser source is the core parts of laser marking machine, like the heart of people, also the most expensive parts inside of laser machine, the laser will come out from this laser source, laser source that we will dicussed today is Fiber laser source, not CO2 laser source, not UV laser source, Not green Laser source. you maybe saw bogong other article to check what's the different between CO2 Laser source, uv Laser source, etc.
Fiber laser source incuding fiber technical laser source and MOPA technical laser source, MOPA popular from 2013, mostly use for colorful marking on stainless steel, like red color, green color, blue color, yellow color, pls be sure that laser machine color not like inkjet colorful printing machine, the different stainless steel material maybe get different color, if you are use user, need get templates from supplier, also MOPA have lots of power and different parameter, 20W 30W MOPA M6 will be good one for color marking, Mopa laser source also have 60W 100W, but not good at color, also pls be sure that color only on surface of Stainless steel, can do do depth together with color. Mopa technical laser source also use for some plastic material.
IPG laser source sold well during 2009to 2012, but soon, Raycus company improve their technical and price, the IPG market change weak year by year, so till now Raycus laser source is top sales in the world, Max is late than Raycus, and Max use same strategy as Raycus, but they didn't control better on Quality, so the reputation in domestic and overseas not good as Raycus, but some Shenzhen company still support their local supplier, you can see their have one guy from Shenzhen wrote one article, if you work in laser field for several years, and knew the story about each brand, you will know it's fake or right, pls be sure that all brand will have problem, even IPG laser source, If you think we don't like China brand, then choos IPG.
