The SmartLase® UV500 builds on three decades of experience at Markem-Imaje in laser technology and delivers the most precise, high-quality coding on challenging materials. With the added benefit of minimal heat transfer, it is perfectly suited for high-density and delicate materials including hard plastics, recyclable films, metal, and glass.
The SmartLase® UV500 is capable of rapid coding for traceability including advanced text messages, logos, and complex 2D codes. This new, powerful, and robust UV printer has been engineered to provide unsurpassed marking speed for fast, demanding applications.
Virtually maintenance-free, the SmartLase® UV500 reduces operational expenses (OPEX) through fewer line stoppages and no added costs like expensive consumables or external cooling. Meanwhile, chemical-free production helps businesses achieve sustainability compliance goals and the inedible, permanent codes protect against counterfeiting.
Industry 4.0-optimized and with a variety of industrial interfaces such as Ethernet/IP, PROFINET, and NGPCL, the SmartLase® UV500 has also full-featured CoLOS® software support capacity – allowing for accurate, smart, and optimized message design and data management across the factory from a remote location.
Designed with reliability and safety at its heart and with Ingress Protection up to 55, the SmartLase® UV500 is designed for challenging manufacturing environments. Moreover, the laser meets the very highest standard of safety for E-stop and interlock circuit integration per ISO 13849-1 up to Performance Level PLe.
“The SmartLase® UV500 has been engineered to address the growing market demand for a powerful and fast UV laser,” said Adam Krolak, Product Marketing Manager at Markem-Imaje. “We are catering to a global shift to sustainable and recyclable packaging materials. Moreover, our customers are now looking for traceability solutions and to comply with the new rules for managing recycled materials. These needs are fully addressed with the UV500 laser printer and its unmatched efficiency on highly demanding, ultra-fast applications.”
The SmartLase® UV range will enhance the existing Markem-Imaje CO2 and fiber laser product portfolio by providing solutions for challenging substrates.
