ESCATEC installs $130,000 laser marker to improve PCB identification and traceability

June 18, 2012

Heerbrugg, Switzerland – 18 June, 2012 – ESCATEC, the EMS innovator, has added a laser marking machine for PCB to its production facilities at Heerbrugg in Switzerland. The CO2 laser beam is used to change the surface structure of the solder resist to give a clear and permanent marking on the surface of the PCB. The marking can be for machine-readable codes as well as text, graphics and logos, which show up as white areas on the PCB. The fully automated process writes the data for each board directly from the ERP system and verifies it with a built-in reader.
