Ball bearing marking with a laser
Permanent laser marking of ball bearings and roller bearings
Materials suitable for laser marking
Tremendous forces act on ball and roller bearings. Laser marking is ideal for the creation of identification labels as they are extremely resistant to heat and mechanical stress. Even under the toughest conditions, laser markings on stainless steel, hardened and coated metals, plastics and ceramics remain permanently legible. They are used in production codes, lettering, logos or dimensions.
Materials suitable for laser marking
- Stainless steel
- Hardened metals
- Coated metals
- Ceramic
Impressions
Application examples for ball bearings
Typical areas of application for laser marking ball bearings are functional labels (logos and company names for anti-counterfeiting measures) as well as product information (type, size, date of manufacture, etc.).
- Production codes
- Lettering
- Logos
- Product information
- Company name
- Trademark protection, anti-counterfeiting measures
Why should I buy a laser for ball bearing marking?
Laser marking ball and roller bearings in stainless steel, hardened metals, ceramics or plastics with a Trotec laser device not only allows flexibility in the choice of materials, but also the shapes, sizes and processed contents of the bearings. By using the included and intuitive SpeedMark marking software, you can process variable data and content from external systems. You can choose between standard machines or automated/integrated system solutions.
Function and advantages of laser technology
Flexible, variable data can be marked
- A wide range of markings can be created from dynamic content without retooling or tool changes
Advantages of a Trotec laser
- Intelligent and intuitive SpeedMark marking software that can simply process data from existing ERP systems and all dynamic contents in codes
Automated custom-built laser machines
- Fully automated custom-built machines are also possible
Advantages of a Trotec laser
- Decades of experience in the development, design and implementation of custom-built machines
- Standardized workstations as core elements for custom-built solutions
- Several solutions for manufacturers of ball bearings have already been produced, e.g. including a separation system, conveyor, automatic marking process and removal area
Integration into production lines
- Hardware- and software-sided integration into existing production lines is possible
Advantages of a Trotec laser
- Years of experience of integrating OEM galvo laser systems into production lines
- Software that meets all requirements for interfaces with other systems
- Maintenance-free galvo fiber laser for fastest labels with minimal servicing
Markings take seconds and allow fast cycle times
- High speed labeling thanks to galvo technology
Advantages of a Trotec laser
- Maintenance-free galvo fiber lasers for fastest labels with minimal servicing
Cost-efficient production
- Direct marking does not raise costs for consumables
- No pre- or post-treatments are required
- Tool wear is eliminated
Advantages of a Trotec laser
- The SpeedMarker with a maintenance-free fiber laser can be integrated as a laser workstation or into a production line
- The robust mechanics of Trotec laser systems have been designed for many years of intensive use with minimal servicing
Marking takes seconds and allows greater output
- High speed marking with variable data is possible, e.g. serial numbers, codes
- A wide range of different markings can be created without retooling or tool changes
Advantages of a Trotec laser
- Intelligent and intuitive marking software
- Fast and highly accurate positioning of components by means of a camera system: SpeedMark Vision - Smart Adjust
- Integration of contents from ERP files is possible
Permanent marking
- Laser markings are permanent and are abrasion, heat and acid resistant
- Especially important for traceability and quality assurance
Advantages of a Trotec laser
- Product portfolio with matching fiber laser systems for all requirements
- OEM galvo fiber laser for integration into production lines
- Custom-built systems according to customer requirements
Perfect marking results - fine tools
- Precise shapes, including radial texts, can be marked with extreme accuracy
- Marking processes can be combined to clean the material after processing or to provide a higher contrast (e.g. Data Matrix codes)
Advantages of a Trotec laser
- Ideal optics and optimal beam performance thanks to high-quality components
- Camera-based component positioning for high precision and ease of use
