UV Basic
From: 10880 €
The UV Basic laser, equipped with a galvanometer head, features an open design without a protective enclosure, allowing for the marking of large parts without size constraints.
Due to the low thermal emission of its UV beam, this system is particularly suitable for marking sensitive materials such as glass, ceramics, technical plastics, or certain metals with low thermal conductivity, while limiting the risks of alteration or deformation.
Thanks to its optimized marking speed, it offers high productivity and great reliability, responding with precision, repeatability, and speed to the requirements of the most demanding industrial environments.

FAQ on UV Basic
What are the advantages of UV laser compared to fiber and CO2 lasers?
To properly understand the unique position of the UV laser, it is necessary to analyze how its wavelength interacts with material compared to Fiber and CO2 lasers.
Here is a clear comparison of these three technologies.
Comparison table of wavelengths
| Laser Type | Wavelength | Spectral range | Interaction with material | Preferred materials |
| CO2 Laser | 10600 nm | Far infrared | Thermal (Burns, melts, evaporates) | Wood, acrylic, leather, glass (raw engraving), cardboard. |
| Fiber Laser | 1064 nm | Near infrared | Thermal (Heating, annealing, stripping) | Metals (stainless steel, steel, aluminum) and certain opaque plastics. |
| UV Laser | 355 nm | Ultraviolet | Photochemical (“Cold marking”) | All plastics, glass (high finish), precious metals, silicon. |
The major advantages of the UV Laser
The UV laser does not attempt to “heat” the material, and that is precisely what makes it so powerful.
- “Cold marking” (Zero thermal damage)
CO2 and Fiber lasers work through thermal interaction: they heat the area until it melts or carbonizes. The UV laser, however, possesses photons that are so energetic that they directly break the molecular bonds of the material without heating it.
Result: No deformation, no burrs, no burns, or micro-cracks on the part.
- Universal absorption
Many materials (notably clear or colored plastics, glass, or highly reflective metals such as copper or gold) reflect or transmit light from Fiber and CO2 lasers. Conversely, the 355 nm wavelength is absorbed by almost all materials, making it the most versatile laser on the market.
- Microscopic precision
The size of a laser’s focal spot depends directly on its wavelength: the shorter it is, the more finely the beam can be concentrated.
A UV beam can be focused to less than 20 microns. It therefore allows for micro-marking (Datamatrix codes of less than one square millimeter, microscopic serial numbers) with absolute sharpness, which is impossible to achieve with a CO2 or Fiber laser.
In summary: While CO2 and Fiber excel in raw power (thick cutting, deep metal engraving), the UV laser is the tool for surgical precision and respect for delicate materials.
