Laser marking is mainly processed on assembly lines or platforms. Platform type laser marking can use both ordinary laser marking control systems and visual laser marking control systems with visual recognition functions.
A regular laser marking control system, due to the lack of visual recognition function, can only illuminate the laser at a fixed position for marking processing. Therefore, when processing small parts into batches, a dedicated fixture is needed on the platform to fix the processing object.
The visual laser marking control system can use both Mark point positioning and feature recognition processing on platform equipment.
Mark point positioning processing refers to identifying the Mark positioning points on the material to determine the area objects that need to be processed and carry out processing. The advantage of a Mark point positioning system is accuracy and speed, usually reaching an accuracy of less than 0.05mm. The disadvantage is that it is difficult to process materials with complex shapes, so it is mainly used for processing flat materials such as paper, acrylic, metal plates, etc.
Feature recognition processing refers to identifying the specific object that needs to be processed by identifying the shape, color, and specific identification of the material, and then starting laser marking processing. The characteristics of feature recognition are flexible processing methods, high level of intelligence, and operators can independently recognize and complete processing after setting corresponding parameters, with a high level of automation. The application range of feature recognition is very wide, and materials such as small components, plastic shells, and easily deformed fabrics will use feature recognition function to complete laser marking processing.
