SQ-UV-A Laser Marking System
Squid Ink’s SQ-UV-A water-cooled laser coding systems are designed for high speed food, beverage, pharmaceutical, chemical, pipe and other primary coding applications. The SQ-UV laser utilizes a 355nm wavelength which allows marking to be performed with minimal heat stress. Materials which absorb this wavelength very well include PE, HDPE, LDPE, PP, ABS, PVC, metals, and more. SQ-UV-A systems are available in 5W, 10W, 17W, and 20W power configurations for a variety of applications.
