Thank you James for your reply.


As mentioned previously I have basically no knowledge about how to manufacture a complete system (similarly to what you mention in your mail).


Do you think it is possible to someone of this formu willing to give a hand ? (he would be paid for obviously)


Do you think worth sending the material I need to print before making the investment?

Construction / laser DPSS Active Q-Switched

« on: August 16, 2010, 08:45:34 am »

Hello, I am Themba, new to this forum.


Little knowledge about Laser technology.
Trying to build a unit which automatically marks Acetyl-Polymers (Plastic) -letters, numbers, barcodes (data Matrix).
I tried with a laser manufacturer and obtained good results with UV laser 355nm and YAG laser 1064nm(for YAG, I added a special additive to polymer).
Main problems are costs (they asked me 20/25K $US)
Size (I need something as small as possible).
Power should be around 1,5/2Watts
Marking area small, 2,0/05cm.
Galvanometric Lense to mark.
Surfing the net I read about DPSS solutions..


Can anyone help?


Thanks


Themba
