MC-Flexc High-End Laser Engraving Systems
Technical Contribution to UV marking systems
Laser 2000 has developed the MCFlexc laser engraving system combining precise mask projection with a
highspeed galvanometer laser beam
scanning system. This permits the
engraving of an unlimited mix of
characters, patterns or codes without
changing the lens aperture. This is
achieved by replacing the usual lens
with a specially designed image objective. The method is very fast – allowing the use of full pulse speed of
an Excimer laser –and economical as
a greater part of the laser energy can
be applied.

Ophthalmic Inkjet L2M-MC-JET
Technical Contribution to UV marking systems
In the ophthalmic industry, the market of growth is the market of progressive lenses for near and far sight.
Commonly, these lenses are pad
printed to ease the work of optician
finding semi or quasi invisible laser
engravements indicating the properties of the lense. Until recently, lense
manufacturers had to live with the
pad printing machines major flaw of
inflexibility. The L2M-MC-JET now
provides great flexibility and gives
the lense manufacturer great market
advantage. The L2M-MC-JET replaces limited stamping mask changers
– different images on the lenses are
now simply placed by software. Thus,
yearly running costs are greatly reduced. With the special L2M-MC-JET
different lense geometries may follow in a mixed sequence. The lense
geometry can either be determined
by the L2M-MC-JET or –in a fully automated version – be retrieved from
bar code and host computer. As an
additional feature, the L2M-MC-JET
also gives the opportunity to freely
import any graphical data. This way,
glasses and molds can also be added
with individual company names and
logos. The L2M-MC-JET is posed to
become the flexible alternative to pad
printing processes. Mostly because
it is more flexible and no masks are
needed. Any glass or mold can be individually inked with the information
provided. The L2M-MC-JET not only
lets you enjoy the higher flexibility –it
also is far more economic regarding
the costs of investment, yearly costs,
and costs per glasses.

Industrial Fiber Laser Module
L2M-Fib-1064
General description
The laser beam of this unique fiber
laser module L2M-Fib-1064 is easily brought to point of use through
means of a flexible fiber. This fiber
may be up to 8 m long. Only the weight
of the laser head need to be moved to
quickly and accurately position the
laser focus over the work piece. This
concept has the great advantage of
securing very endurant, reliable micromachining equipments. This way,
any multi dimensional accurate positioning becomes an almost easy task.
Today, these industrial 19” fiber laser modules systems are already
successfully implemented in applications requiring the integration on
smallest area and demanding very
high marking speeds.
Among many others, examples of
these applications include coding in
the packaging industry or marking of
electronic parts. Fiber laser marking
systems are now providing an alternative solution to ink jet or mechanical engraving.
The L2M-Fib-1064 modules are ready
for integration into production lines.
Bulky, big and difficult to access objects can be structured or marked as
easily and comfortably as small and
flat ones.

Dual Wavelength Laser Station – microPULSE 532/266
L2M-ns-mP-532/266
One of the major demands on machining of substrates is to have a
wide range of different material that
actually can be machined. Ideally,
one tool should be usable for metals, ceramics, and also for optically
transparent substrates. The microPULSE 532/266 fulfil those demands
in a very compact way. A simple
software switch changed the wavelength between 532 nm and 266 nm
and thus allows very flexible proceeding without waiting time. The
exchange of the lens is as easy as
loading a film of a camera. These
two easy steps make the machine
ready for the other wavelength in
just an instant.

Fluor Excimer Laser Station
L2M-F2-Excim-157
A novel highly efficient fluor laser system is now commercially available
from Laser 2000 GmbH in cooperation
with 3D-Micromac AG for machining
microstructures. The L2M-F2-Excim157 permits material processing at fluences of up to 7 J/cm2 with a pulse energy of 20 mJ. The maximum field size
on the sample is 240 by 240 µm2. Materials can be processed by single pulses,
a burst of pulses, or time and position
synchronized. The growing interest
in fluor lasers for microstructuring is
attributed to the short wavelength of
157 nm and the corresponding high
photon energy of 7,9 eV. Photons of
this energy are easily absorbed by a
large range of materials including
many band gap insulators. However,
until recently fluor lasers suffered
from high energy loss along the beam
path. Existing fluor lasers need to run at
maximum power to provide a minimum
fluence at the workpiece. With the ingeniously new design of the beam path,
the energy loss from the laser source
to the workpiece is reduced tremendously. The advantages are significant:
less laser power is needed resulting in
a longer lifetime, the gas consumption is reduced, and the system handling is easier. With Laser 2000 GmbH/
3D-Micromac AG’s new fluor laser system, protected by patent, now virtual-

Picosecond Laser Station microPULSE
L2M-ps-mP
In research and development, it has
increasingly become indispensable to
possess the capability of machining
smaller and finer structures into most
various substrates. Substrates to be
machined may be of any nature – say
metals, alloys, ceramics, transparent
material, or biological material.
For that purpose, it would be best to
have one universal tool suited for all
of these substrates without need of reconfiguring or altering it.
The resulting requirements of such a
laser micromachining equipment are:
degree of freedom regarding the positioning of the substrates
 open system concept for the integration of most different lasers or laser
sources operated parallel
 flexible, upgradeable control concept for possible future integration
of further components (for instance
additional axes systems, additional
optical components, etc.)
With regard to the above requirements, Laser 2000 GmbH in
cooperation with 3D-Micromac AG
are presenting a system concept that
provides exactly these features. The
microPULSE L2M-ps-mP has partic
particularly been designed for the upmost
various tasks posed in micromachining, such as drilling of micro holes, creating micro structures, or micro cuts.
Dependent on the chosen laser type,
materials with high thermal conductivity and low melting temperatures
can as easily processed as transparent, semi conducting, superconducting, or organic materials. Thanks to
constantly improving lasers, powerful and reliable systems are available
today. These, high performance systems enable the precise machining
of almost any material. The positioning of the substrates is performed by
5 axes positioning system consisting
of three lineal axes and two goniometers. Direct driven axes position the

substrate in x and y. The Z axis is a
limited spindle axis. Two goniometers enable for an angular positioning of the substrates with respect to
x and y directions. This versatile concept also provides the possibility of
extending it by additional positioning systems – for instance additional
rotational axes.

Femtosecond Laser Station
L2M-fs-775, L2M-fs-800
Precision and quality are both
most crucial in high end machining of micromechanical products.
The materials being used and demands to be matched (e.g. structuring on the sub micrometer scale
or ther­mally stress-free machining) require a purpose-built laser
source. The L2M-fs femto­second
worksta­tion by Laser 2000 GmbH/
3D-Micromac AG are ideally suited
for complex tasks due to their highly special technical characteristics.
Some of the features include minimal
bore diameters of several 100 nanometers, the avoidance of heat affected zones, debris free and crack free
machining, the avoidance of layer
stack delamination and the capability to machine virtually any material.
