The biggest difference between the visual laser marking control system and ordinary laser marking is that it is equipped with a control system with visual recognition function. The quality of the control system also largely determines the accuracy of visual recognition and the speed and precision of marking processing.
The visual laser marking control system includes the following main functions: Laser control: Laser control is one of the main functions of a laser control system. By adjusting the pulse signal size, the laser control system can control parameters such as the power, pulse width, and pulse frequency of the laser beam emitted, allowing the laser beam to complete marking and processing tasks according to the correct amount of energy released by the material.
Visual recognition: The visual laser control system can automatically identify the object to be processed based on features such as color, shape, and marking points, thereby controlling the marking machine to automatically complete the task.
Galvanometer control: The laser marking machine adjusts the direction of laser irradiation through a galvanometer, which is controlled by a motor. The control system controls the refractive angle of the galvanometer by adjusting the galvanometer motor, thereby controlling the direction of laser beam irradiation.
Graphics processing: The laser marking control system can perform simple processing on the input graphics, including adding text, changing size, deleting nodes, adding line segments, etc. After image editing is completed, it can also manage file operations such as storage and copying.
Safety supervision: The visual laser control system will detect the operation of the equipment after startup. If the equipment malfunctions, it will alert the operators through warning lights or sound alarms. After connecting other equipment, it can also check the operation status of other supporting equipment such as chillers, conveyors, and gas cylinders.
At present, the development of visual laser control systems is relatively mature, and major mainstream brands have similar basic core functions. The main difference lies in some customized or specific functional technologies. When selecting visual laser control systems, we should judge based on our own processing needs.
