Custom Laser Marking System Software

Graphics and CAD software like CorelDRAWTM and AutoCADTM are powerful packages but don't always fit into retail or production environments. Their complex user interfaces are geared toward creating figures and drawings and can intimidate new employees. This increases your training costs and can lower throughput.

What's often desired is a custom program that:

  • provides a streamlined interface
  • allows operators to select jobs by product or operation rather than file
  • displays job information so it can be read from a distance
  • provides bar code, time/date stamp, and serialization support
  • can import job data from other computer systems
  • creates activity logs
  • automates repetitive tasks
We build upon our laser system integration experience to provide software that reflects your way of doing things.

The following program shows one example of our custom marking software that is being used to mark identifiers onto our customer's product in production. This shows the main control panel for one of three machines (A, B, and C) performing parallel production.

Custom laser marking software for product marking

When the operator changes over to marking a different product they simply click on Select Job and the following selection screen is displayed:

The operator simply selects a job, checks to see if it's the right one by the job description, then clicks to accept the job. Back on the main marking control panel, the next click on Start Marking sends the first batch to be marked on the new job to the machine. The operator doesn't have to hunt around for files on the PC and the part number and time/date are filled in automatically. It doesn't get much easier than this.
