Laser Label Printing
This application required critical component data to be laser marked onto a metal, thermally resistant label. The labels were supplied in a continuous reel and needed to be marked with unique part numbers.
Pryor built a bespoke housing for its standard laser marking head and electronic controller. The label feed was designed to be easy to load and ensure a perfect mark on each label.
The software control was set up to mark batches of labels based on barcode inputs read from job cards.
The housing and label delivery slot were designed to ensure complete isolation of harmful laser light from the operator, ensuring the product remained a class 1 safety system.
