The auto-focus function of laser marking machines combined with an electric lifting system, has a core highlight of "one-click operation" — pressing the auto-focus button enables automatic workpiece distance measurement and focal length adjustment, which accurately solves the tedious problem of manual focusing in traditional laser marking machines and helps enterprises improve efficiency and reduce costs. Its core advantages are concentrated in three aspects:
1. Time-Saving and Labor-Saving, Shortening Laser Marking Processing Time
Manual focusing of traditional laser marking machines requires repeated twisting of the lifting knob, and after each adjustment, it is necessary to test marking and check clarity. Especially for high-precision marking (such as QR codes and small LOGOs), a single focusing process takes more than 1 minute, and long-term operation easily causes fatigue to operators.
Laser marking machines with auto-focus can complete focusing within 10 seconds without manual intervention. Calculated based on processing 500 workpieces per day, about 4 hours can be saved only in the focusing link. This not only reduces physical consumption but also speeds up the laser marking process, making it suitable for factories and workshops pursuing efficient processing.
2. Adapting to Workpieces of Different Heights, Meeting Diverse Laser Marking Needs
When enterprises conduct laser marking, they often encounter workpieces of different heights (such as 2mm plastic plates and 8mm stainless steel plates). Traditional manual focusing requires first measuring the height difference and then stopping the machine to adjust parameters, which is prone to errors and disrupts the batch processing rhythm.
The auto-focus (electric lifting) system of laser marking machines can automatically identify the height of workpieces ranging from 1mm to 10mm. Pressing the auto-focus button enables immediate focal length adaptation, and no machine shutdown is needed even for mixed-batch processing. It is perfectly suitable for laser marking needs in industries such as hardware, 3C electronics, and medical equipment.
3. Lowering the Threshold, Reducing Laser Marking Machine Training Costs
Manual focusing of traditional laser marking machines requires high requirements for operational experience. New operators need 1-2 weeks of training to master the skills of focal length control, and during this period, workpieces are easily scrapped due to operational errors.
The auto-focus function of laser marking machines does not require professional knowledge. New operators can achieve accurate focusing by simply pressing the button, which greatly reduces reliance on skilled workers, lowers the recruitment and training costs for laser marking machine operation, and facilitates small and medium-sized enterprises to build a marking team quickly.
