Glass Laser Marking

Abrisa Technologies has added 2 new laser engraving processes to their value-added, ready-to-install glass fabrication service capabilities. The company now provides in-house:

CO2 laser engraving “marking” of select coated and uncoated glass
Laser etched graphics, icons and unique identifiers (QR codes and barcodes)

These two methods of laser engraving and etching add to the company’s Total Solution approach of single-point accountability for fabricated specialty glass components.

CO₂ Laser Engraving “Marking” of Select Coated & Uncoated Glass

Laser engraving directly onto select coated or uncoated glass creates human readable, non-removeable identification and LOT tracking information for traceability without any added profile or chemistry constraints or concerns. The marking can be done on the edge or face. The alpha-numerics can be 2.8 mm to 7.1 mm in height and can be specified in one of three popular font options.

Laser Marked Graphics On-Demand Supports:

Use of Lower Cost Common Blanks
Display Manufacturing with High Mix
Template Files for On-Demand Graphics

CO₂ Laser Etched Graphics

Selective removal of screen-printed ink on glass is ideal when unique identifiers such as machine readable QR codes or barcodes are desired to be incorporated into the face or border graphics of the glass component. The laser etched graphics approach is an effective option to support on-demand display glass graphics and unique identifiers which can vary by platform or part yet still take advantage of a common display glass blank for reduced inventory costs.

Serial Number and LOT Tracking
Access to User’s Manual/Video
