Laser Marking in Automotive Manufacturing & Direct Part Marking
Importance of Laser Marking Machine in the Automotive Industry
Clean and crisp marking with consistency is an essential requirement of the automotive industry. Laser Marking of Data matrix for traceability & security purposes is an important aspect of the automotive industry. Industrial Laser marker and marking systems are the ideal sword for marking legible alphanumeric serial code, 1 D barcodes and 2D data matrix codes on nearly all materials like Gears, bearing, Automotive Housing, are very useful in automotive manufacturing to trace each and every part.
The Automotive part like dashboard interior of the gear and bearing is made up of materials like Stainless steel, light or heavy metals and plastics like nylon, abs, PP, PVC is marked for tracing throughout the life cycle for Quality control. This laser Marking must be corrosion resistance & weather resistance. The oxidation may lead to damage of marking and the marking get vanished with time.
These parts have to resist high temperature or lowest temperature in a cold region, the oil and gas of different types is always a part of the life of these Automotive components
Traceability, serialization or it can be called as identification are the core integral part of automotive manufacturing. Each and every car contains thousands of parts which are always laser marked with 2d or 1D code on it which also called as permanent laser marking.
Whether it be Gear housing or exhaust components, Car interior dashboard, electronic audio dashboard systems, any metal, or PCB’s MARKOLASER industrial laser marking Machines or systems offers a significant advantage over traditional marking and engraving methods.
Traceability Laser Marker and Automation and Traceability Software for Data Management
Product traceability in the automotive industry has become an essential element, as these automotive manufacturers don’t manufacture all the parts by themselves, the huge
number of vehicle components are supplied by various suppliers. So it has become very necessary for each manufacturer to laser mark them with serial code or data matric code so that the component can be traceable. This will help, when there will be any fault in any of the components, the component can be identified well which in result helps us
identify the manufacturer of that particular part. To keep the huge supply chain under control there is a need for data management software or can be called as traceability software which helps in laser marking of 1D barcode and 2D data-matrices or QR code. All of these codes help the OEM to trace and trace the supplier date place of the automotive component and helps in identifying the defective component in the car thus reduces the recalls and malfunction in the vehicle systems.
We have developed custom data management software for interacting with any database to extract data and laser mark on the surface of the part with Automotive ISO/IEC,
TR 29158, TR 24720, 16022 Standards.
