INVESTIGATION OF THE ROLE OF CERTAIN FACTORS AFFECTING THE CONTRAST IN LASER MARKING
L. Lazov1,*, A. Atanasov2, N. Angelov3
Abstract
An investigation has been made of dependence of marking contrast on surface roughness, spacing between hatches (that is the pitch between hatches) and the speed for products made of tool steel. Experiments made concern pulse laser CuBr utilizing МОРА system.
Keywords: laser marking, contrast, roughness.
