Laser marking on freezer bags

Laser marking on polyethylene and recycled polypropylene freezer bags

What are the key benefits of laser marking on freezer bags?
  • Sustainability: We reduce the carbon footprint by using recycled materials and a marking process that generates no waste.
  • Traceability: Each laser-marked bag contains detailed information about origin, packing date, and more, ensuring quality from production to the final consumer.
  • ♻️ Recyclability: We facilitate the recycling process by avoiding inks or additional materials that hinder component separation.

MACSA APPLICATION

Recycled materials require the search for marking and coding technologies that are both sustainable and profitable for companies. This type of recycled materials is on the rise in the food market due to environmental concerns and evolving government regulations. Traceability is crucial in the frozen food industry to guarantee product quality and enable swift detection or recall in emergencies. Production lines in this sector operate under low temperatures, making laser marking an ideal choice. Laser marking provides cold-resistant, permanent, and highly legible markings, ensuring visibility throughout the product's shelf life. For this reason, more and more manufacturers are opting for this more sustainable and safer technology compared to traditional ink marking methods.

MACSA SOLUTION

The use of Macsa's SPA2 UV laser allows permanent marking without burning or deteriorating the substrate, ensuring high definition and quality. Laser coding on polyethylene and polypropylene ensures traceability throughout the product's life without generating waste. The colour of the substrate and the size of the elements to be marked define the power to be used and the speed to be reached. In this case, with laser marking we have achieved good contrast.   marcajé láser bolsas congelado

Laser marking on coffee capsules

MACSA APPLICATION

Every day, millions of coffee capsules are used around the world, and the traceability of their various compounds and packaging materials is undergoing constant change. Potential applications include the ability to distinguish between different coffee intensities, batch expiry dates, and marketing aspects such as branding logos and capsule designs, among others.

MACSA SOLUTION

In today's Application News, the marking we show you was done with a Macsa id SPA2 FP laser. As can be seen in the photos, the reaction of the material is optimal, allowing the contrast to be improved by filling in the alphanumeric characters without perforating the protective layer of the product. The marking area of the black capsule is made of smooth aluminium, a very common material in capsules. The marking tends to be white and depending on the light reflection, the marking will be more or less visible. In the white capsule we are dealing with a compostable material, where it is possible to get a darker reaction. This type of material is increasingly used in this and many other sectors, as it provides a plus of sustainability, which is increasingly appreciated by consumers. marcaje láser cápsula café

Laser marking on lenses

MACSA APPLICATION

Renowned for its outstanding impact resistance, polycarbonate stands out as a material capable of withstanding impact without easily breaking or chipping. This makes it an excellent choice for applications in optics, automotive, and even glassware.

Marking on lenses is important for providing essential information about the product's features and performance, as well as for complying with industry regulations and standards.

MACSA SOLUTION

In this case we used a Macsa CO2 laser to mark on eyeglass lenses. Notably, the peculiarity of this marking is its invisibility to the naked eye, only becoming legible when light is applied from behind. This type of application is especially useful in scenarios where internal coding is necessary for product traceability, without the consumer being aware of the marking.

Being a non-contact process, laser marking on polycarbonate lenses ensures the material's integrity, avoiding deterioration and the generation of dust particles that would require cleaning afterwards. The reaction of the CO2 laser with polycarbonate produces high-quality, high-definition, precise markings, allowing for customisation as well as the flexibility to change the marking data.

Laser Marking on Polycarbonate

MACSA APPLICATION

In the hydraulic sector, all types of meters and measuring devices, whether they are smart or traditional, require essential information on their top cover. This information is crucial for obtaining approval for use in drinking water systems, and it must be both legible and wear-resistant to ensure user safety. Laser marking on polycarbonate guarantees internal and external traceability in a sustainable way.

MACSA SOLUTION

In today’s Application News, we highlight the use of transparent polycarbonate in the watchmaking industry. The marking process was carried out on both sides simultaneously, using our advanced 3D laser technology. This approach allowed for the creation of two focal distance positions: one for top-side marking and another for side marking. Laser equipment has proven to be an efficient solution, not only ensuring the durability of the marking while eliminating the need for inks or labels on the devices but also offering ease of installation on any production line, providing unparalleled versatility. This means that text changes can be made without interrupting the production process, and the system can be adapted to suit various models of meters and counters.
