LASER ENCODING

BARCODES, DATA MATRIX, SERIAL NUMBERS AND QR-CODES

EXPLANATION OF THE PROCESS

The encoding of data matrix, serial numbers and QR-codes can be automatically generated with one of the Lion Laser systems. It will be done highly accurate, flexible and lightning fast.

With laser encoding you are continuously printing for purposes like traceability, recognisability, the expiration date of products and wrappings, etc. With laser encoding, you can replace inkjet printers and label machines, since there are no transportation costs. The recyclability of a product with a laser engraving is much higher than a printed or labelled product, through the absence of add-on materials. Ink printing sometimes fades, weather conditions affect the print quality or due to damage the print gets unreadable. Laser engravings are resistant to wear and tear, weather conditions and therefore much more sustainable than printed or labelled products. Thereby, it is also the ideal way of anti-tampering and brand security. The demand for traceability keeps growing within the field of products and components. Both in intern production lines and the external supply chain, traceability is desired. But even after the delivery to the purchaser, it is desirable to know exactly which path the product has travelled. A laser encoding can be read by the eye or can be scanned with a camera or code scanner.
