Trumpf is presenting the TruMark 7050 laser system at the Photonics West trade fair in San Francisco.
"This laser system is more than just a marking laser. It is a multifunction tool with high performance. Users save money with this premium system because they don't have to buy multiple lasers for different applications," says Holger Breitenborn, the product manager responsible for marking systems at Trumpf.
The TruMark 7050 is a ready-to-use solution with an integrated scanner and software. Trumpf further guarantees a very high level of laser safety.
"After commissioning the laser, the user can operate it after just a few steps and start working immediately," says Breitenborn.
Wide Range of Applications
The laser is suitable for a wide range of highly productive applications in various industries working with very short processing cycles. The TruMark 7050 can be used for connecting different types of metals, for example, copper with brass or aluminum, by spot welding.
"This ability is especially sought after for e-mobility applications," Breitenborn emphasizes.
The TruMark 7050 marking and material processing laser is very easy to integrate into companies' flow production. In the automotive industry, the laser is also used for deeply engraving vehicle identification numbers into the body of cars.
"Short process times are required here, which the TruMark 7050 enables with its high power and fast switching cycles. This laser with 200 watts of average power is virtually unmatched in its performance class," explains Breitenborn.
Moreover, the TruMark 7050 can be used to clean metallic surfaces of various materials, such as rust, oil, or organic residues. In addition, the TruMark 7050 is employed for roughening surfaces in several industries. Here, the laser creates regular geometries on the surface of the metal. The individual components of these structures often measure only a few micrometers. The structures created with the laser are, among other things, well suited for preparing adhesive joints, since the adhesive adheres better to roughened metal.
