Built for Accurate Production Marking

The enclosed benchtop design provides a stable, repeatable marking environment that is ideal for production work, quality control, and permanent product identification. Front and side access doors make loading parts quick and convenient, while the raiseable side doors can be locked open to accommodate oversized workpieces or integrate directly into automated production lines. The included rotary chuck and replaceable jaws allow operators to accurately mark cylindrical components such as pipes, shafts, fittings, and round stock.

Faster Setup with Intelligent Alignment and Focusing

The integrated pilot laser projects either the marking boundary or the actual marking content onto the workpiece using a safe red laser, allowing operators to verify positioning before engraving begins. Combined with the easy-to-use focus finder system, the machine quickly establishes the correct focal distance for maximum laser performance and consistent marking quality, reducing setup time and minimizing operator error.

Integrated Computer and EZCAD2 Software Streamline Production

A built-in 10-inch touchscreen computer controls every aspect of the laser, eliminating the need for an external PC. Operators can also use the included wireless keyboard and mouse for added convenience. EZCAD2 software makes it easy to create serial numbers, date codes, logos, barcodes, QR codes, photos, and custom graphics while storing more than 45,000 marking programs for repeat production. Logos and artwork can be imported through USB using common file formats including AI, BMP, DXF, JPG, PLT, PNG, and TIF.

Permanent Laser Marking for Manufacturing, Identification & Traceability

The 20W Benchtop Fiber Laser produces permanent, high-contrast marks that remain legible throughout the life of the product.

Typical applications include:

• Serial numbers, part numbers, and product identification

Increase Production Efficiency While Eliminating Temporary Labels

Temporary labels, ink printing, and manual marking methods can fade, wear away, or create inconsistencies that impact product traceability. The C.H. Hanson 20W Enclosed Benchtop Fiber Laser provides a permanent, maintenance-friendly solution for manufacturers who require reliable identification throughout production and the product lifecycle.

The pilot laser alignment system, automatic focus finder, integrated computer, and large onboard storage help operators complete jobs faster while maintaining exceptional consistency. Whether marking one part or thousands, the system delivers repeatable, professional-quality results with minimal setup time.

Why Choose Fiber Laser Marking over Mechanical Engraving?

Both fiber laser marking and mechanical engraving create permanent identification on parts and products, but they do so in very different ways. Mechanical engraving uses a rotating cutter or diamond-tipped tool to physically remove material from the workpiece, while fiber laser marking uses a concentrated laser beam to permanently mark or engrave the surface without physical contact. Because there is no cutting tool to wear or replace, fiber laser marking requires less maintenance, produces no chips or cutting debris, and delivers exceptional precision for serial numbers, barcodes, QR codes, logos, and other detailed graphics. Fiber laser systems are also faster for many industrial marking applications, making them an excellent choice for manufacturers who require permanent part identification, traceability, and repeatable production marking.
