Electronics and semiconductor industry produce in mass and they usually require laser marking on electronic components. In order to keep up with mass production and product identification, electronic components laser marking is essential. Many parts, such as SMD components, are very small and need to be labeled with a lot of information. For this reason, complex 2D Data Matrix codes are used, which must be permanent and easy to read.

Laser marking on electronic components is the perfect process that can work on precise sizes and not damage the surrounding material in any way. This is because it is a non-contact process, this means that it does not affect anything it is not targeting. This is important in an industry where electronics are made up of hundreds of parts, and it’s important to know that they have maintained their high quality.

Other parts that are laser marked on electronic components are printed circuit boards, housing units, SMD components and component strips. These parts and pieces are typically made up of both metal and other materials, such as plastic, and a good benefit of lasers is that they can easily work with a variety of materials with ease.
