Defense Laser Cleaning and Marking Solutions
The United States government and the Department of Homeland Security have approved a variety of programs where lasers became an essential part of the present and future applications for Direct Parts Marking, UID (Unique Identifier), and deep engraving. This resulted from the increasingly worldwide nature and importance of Direct Parts Marking, UID, and deep engraving during the manufacturing process for the purposes of traceability and production flow control, inventory control and renewal, service marks, product quality validation, and long term product liability and reliability. In the private sector, a variety of government contractors elected to use laser engraving machines to comply with strict government regulations. Laser Photonics has envisioned this opportunity and successfully introduced and delivered laser marking machines and laser engraving machines that are compatible with military standards while continuing to perfect the use and development of our laser technology.
