Capable of permanently marking and engraving a wide range of metals, coated metals and some non-metals, it is a compact, but extremely powerful bench top machine, giving you the ability to produce industry standard surface marking and engraving results.

From high definition logos and photographs, to bar codes, QR codes, date stamps and sequential serial numbers, the machines cutting edge fibre laser technology can turn a standard product in to a branded and traceable product, adding value to your existing products or services.

Materials which can be laser marked and engraved:

Stainless steel

Aluminium

Anodised aluminium

Brass

Copper

Mild steel

Tool steel

Titanium

and more…

With an optional rotary device, the machine bed can be loaded with both flat and cylindrical items, meaning you are not limited to engraving on a flat surface. This can prove particularly useful when adding text or vector images to precision engineered components or even promotional items such as pens or steel drinking flasks.

Safety is an important feature when it comes to laser marking and engraving. This is why Boxford fibre marking lasers are built to be fully enclosed, confirming to class 1 laser safety standards. The machine door is equipped with CE marked fail safe guard switches, to prevent use when the door is open and the machine can also be fitted with a compact filtered fume extraction system, to remove any harmful fumes and debris from the work area.

The machine also comes with an operator foot switch, for quick, large batch production and a motorised ‘Z’ axis for accurate laser head focusing. The galvanometer laser head, allows for rapid marking and engraving, capable of adding a logo or part number to an object in seconds. This allows for maximum productivity and repeatability across batch sizes large and small.

There are two power options available, depending on your application: 20w (from £5,995 ex VAT) and 30w (from £7,995 ex VAT). The 20w machine comes with a standard 160mm focal length lens, which creates a 110mm x 110mm marking area. The 30w machine is available with an optional, additional 228mm focal lens, which can increase the marking area to 200mm x 200mm.

All Boxford fibre marking machines come with Windows software and drivers, 12 months warranty (excluding consumables items, such as filtered extraction filters) and full UK training and support.
