Fiber Laser Marking Machine

Zixu fiber laser marking machines use a 1064 nm Yb-doped source to make permanent marks on metals, alloys, coated surfaces, and select plastics — with no ink, no solvents, and no contact with the part. Power ranges from 20 W to 500 W, marking speed reaches up to 12,000 mm/s, and the galvo delivers ±0.002 mm repeatability with a minimum line width of 0.001 mm. The air-cooled source is rated for 100,000 hours and runs on a standard 220 V or 110 V supply at under 1 kW.

Choose from four configurations: a compact desktop unit for a shop counter, lab, or small production bay; a benchtop 3D dynamic-focus model for curved and stepped parts; a visual-positioning model with UV, fiber, or CO₂ source options for automated line production; or a portable handheld marker for large, heavy, or already-installed workpieces.

Why Choose Zixu Fiber Laser Markers

  • All-in-one body – The laser source, galvo, and controller are built into one desktop unit measuring 320 × 490 × 650 mm. Plug it into 220 V or 110 V, open EZCAD, and start marking.
  • Low running cost – Air-cooled and under 1 kW, with no ink, no solvents, no chiller, and no compressed air. The laser source is rated for 100,000 hours.
  • Fine, fast marking – Marking speed up to 7000 mm/s, minimum line width 0.001 mm and repeatability of ±0.002. Marks graphics, characters, barcodes, and QR codes.
  • Options for your job – Optional rotary axes, lift tables, positioning pointers, safety enclosures, fume extraction, foot switches and key switches.

Materials You Can Mark with a Fiber Laser

MaterialResultRecommended sourceNote
Stainless steel 304/316Very goodFiberDark, high contrast — first choice for serial numbers and QR codes

FAQs

Metals first: stainless steel, carbon and alloy steel, aluminum (including anodized), copper and brass, plated parts and painted surfaces. Some plastics such as ABS, PC and PA can also be marked. Clear glass and acrylic are not suitable – use a UV or CO2 laser.

Yes, but test first. Highly reflective metals may need a slower speed or more power. Mirror aluminum and pure copper are limited because of reflection loss.

No. The desktop fiber laser marker is air-cooled and needs no chiller or compressed air. It uses under 1 kW on a 220 V or 110 V supply.

Yes, with our benchtop 3D fiber laser marking machine. Its Z axis follows the surface (±50 mm stroke, ±100 mm optional), so the part is marked in one clamping.
