Heat affected zones in polymer Laser Marking
Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry, 2013Co-Authors: Ionel Danut Savu, Sorin Vasile Savu, Nicușor Alin SîrbuAbstract:Laser Marking is based on the Laser heating of the subjected material, the heating being below the melting temperature or thermal degradation starting point. Within and nearby the mark, the material is chemically, physically and mechanically affected. This means that the main characteristics are changing in such a way that the material is ageing. Thermal and mechanical analysis can be used to determine the modification of the material, which is important and necessary to know for predicting its use lifetime. This paper investigates the physical and mechanical modification of the polymer HDPE100, when Laser Marking is applied. Burst stress, elongation and relaxation modulus were determined for the base material, within the heat affected zone and within the Laser burned mark. Information on the crystallization rate and on the elongation viscosity is also reported. According to the results, the polyethylene has very fast crystallization and that affects the Marking process if lower than appropriate maintaining during heating process is applied. It becomes stabile after 0.23 min, when it is tested at 103 °C. The elongation viscosity was analysed and values of 105 Pa s were recorded for 10 s, which is a usual time of applying pressure. The performed analysis revealed about 10 % difference between the relaxation modulus of the irradiated and non-irradiated HDPE.

Efficient speckle-free Laser Marking using a spatial light modulator
Applied Physics A, 2014Co-Authors: Krystian L. Wlodarczyk, Jarno J. J. Kaakkunen, Pasi Vahimaa, Duncan P. HandAbstract:An approach for Laser Marking surfaces using a liquid–crystal-based spatial light modulator (LC-SLM) for beam patterning and manipulation is presented, designed to avoid the speckle interference problem which is a typical drawback of current SLM-based Laser Marking processes. In our approach, the LC-SLM is used to generate complex two-dimensional micropatterns (e.g., 20 × 20 datamatrices) with overall dimensions of

Efficient speckle-free Laser Marking using a spatial light modulator
Applied Physics A, 2013Co-Authors: Krystian L. Wlodarczyk, Jarno J. J. Kaakkunen, Pasi Vahimaa, Duncan P. HandAbstract:An approach for Laser Marking surfaces using a liquid–crystal-based spatial light modulator (LC-SLM) for beam patterning and manipulation is presented, designed to avoid the speckle interference problem which is a typical drawback of current SLM-based Laser Marking processes. In our approach, the LC-SLM is used to generate complex two-dimensional micropatterns (e.g., 20 × 20 datamatrices) with overall dimensions of < 320 by 320 μm. The micropatterns are generated in a series of 16 steps, using a Fresnel zone lens (FZL) combined with a computer-generated hologram (CGH); for each step the whole kinoform (FZL + CGH) is spatially shifted off-axis by a different amount of pixels to build-up the required pattern. In comparison with other SLM-based Laser Marking approaches already reported in the literature, our method not only eliminates (or at least significantly reduces) unwanted speckle interference but also reduces the Laser power required for Marking.

Application of a liquid crystal spatial light modulator to Laser Marking
Applied Optics, 2011Co-Authors: Jonathan P. Parry, Rainer J. Beck, Jonathan D Shephard, Duncan P. HandAbstract:Laser Marking is demonstrated using a nanosecond (ns) pulse duration Laser in combination with a liquid crystal spatial light modulator to generate two-dimensional patterns directly onto thin films and bulk metal surfaces. Previous demonstrations of Laser Marking with such devices have been limited to low average power Lasers. Application in the ns regime enables more complex, larger scale marks to be generated with more widely available and industrially proven Laser systems. The dynamic nature of the device is utilized to improve mark quality by reducing the impact of the inherently speckled intensity distribution across the generated image and reduce thermal effects in the marked surface.
