Challenge: Precise markings despite varying components
In many manufacturing environments, marking errors are still one of the most common causes of scrap and rework. Changing component shapes, tolerance-critical components and small batch sizes make it particularly difficult to achieve consistent marking quality. Trotec Laser addresses precisely these industrial requirements with Vision Precision by enabling visual control directly in the machining process, thereby eliminating errors at an early stage.
The solution: Image-based marking with integrated process reliability
Vision Precision supports users with a precise, camera-based view of the component. Content can be aligned directly in the live image, which significantly reduces the risk of incorrect positioning and shortens setup times. Thanks to automatic focusing and visual reference, marking quality remains consistently high regardless of the operator, work shift or component variation.
This combination ensures:
- High reproducibility – even with demanding markings
- Reduced setup times thanks to visual, intuitive operation
- Less scrap thanks to integrated quality checks
- Stable results even with the smallest marking areas or complex geometries
The technology is particularly suitable for industries where a few micrometers determine marking quality and visual appearance – these include, above all, the watch industry, precision engineering and medical technology, but also automotive/e-mobility and high-electronics manufacturing. Image-based alignment also allows miniaturized codes and filigree engravings to be produced reliably and reproducibly.
