Black laser annealing* oxidizes the surfaces of metals, turning them black.
To achieve the perfect black tone, strict optimizations were performed.
With the LP-S500W series, we have made black laser annealing simple thanks to a newly developed optics design.
Easy to configure, the LP-S500W allows beautiful, reliable black marking.
The latest in optical technology will improve quality and productivity.

*Optimal performance may not be achievable with certain materials.

Reliable black laser annealing used to require strict management of the target’s work distance. With the LP-S500W series, you now have ±15 mm ±0.591 in* more flexibility in work distance thanks to a newly developed optics design. There is no longer a need to do process changeovers for lines producing products of different sizes. And, because printing is done uniformly regardless of height differences, the LP-S500W series helps improve production reliability.

The LP-S500W series allows the operator to visualize the printable range based on the relationship between the positions of the guide laser and laser pointer. Now you can check target object position and height based on the laser pointer’s marker positions. Deviation amounts can also be checked. With this feature, equipment setup and maintenance gets a little easier.

For accurate marking on workpieces with different heights, marking sizes, positions, etc. need modification in consideration of each target’s height. With the LP-S500W series, marking size and position are corrected automatically by entering the distances to each target object. Setting for marking target objects of different heights just got much simpler.

High-speed black marking

A significant amount of heat energy used to be needed to achieve a sufficiently dark black laser annealing. Featuring a high-output 42 W FAYb laser, the LP-S500W series has twice the output of other models*. Improve productivity with black laser annealing that is faster and that produces darker markings.

With a protective construction*1 that allowed the creation of the “IP67G Fanless Head”,a first*2 for the laser marking industry, the LP-S500W is strong enough to withstand the dirt, dust, water drops, oil mists and other elements common to harsh environments at manufacturing sites.

The LP-S500W series features minimum frame seams. Minor seams and screw holes are completely sealed, producing high sealing performance. This performance is sustained by applying constant pressure to the sealed areas. Maximum cooling efficiency is also achieved allowing the use of a fanless head for thorough cooling.

Meet the industry’s first*1 removable fiber unit, achieved through unique design.
Thanks to a small head and removable fiber unit, integration with other equipment just got simpler.
This allows for dramatic improvements in workability and equipment design freedom.

The LP-S500W series takes up close to 15 % less floor space with about 20 % less volume*1 compared to other models*2. Save floor costs by using more space-saving equipment.
