The laser module is the core component of any LaserSharp® laser processing system, which will cut, kiss-cut, score, perforate, or etch a variety of materials. Each laser module is independently controlled by our patented imbedded LightGuide control software, which offers the convenience to manage multiple laser modules from one user interface. The laser digital converting experts at LasX will work with you to configure a LaserSharp® system that best incorporates the laser type and module to suit your specific application requirements. One or several modules can be integrated into a single system for the utmost processing flexibility and productivity. Our fully sealed laser modules require zero maintenance, no beam alignment and come in two types: Laser Down-web Modules (LDM) and Laser Processing Modules (LPM). Add a Dual Mode, Flex, or GT package to any LPM to increase processing options.

Laser Modules

LasX creates processes and systems that combine multiple digital converting applications in one system, noticeably increasing your productivity. Available laser LaserSharp® Modules:

• LDM: The LaserSharp® Laser Down-web Module (LDM) is designed for straight-line or down-web laser slitting or scoring of roll-fed materials such as flexible films and aluminum foil.
• LPM: The LaserSharp® Laser Processing Module (LPM) offers all of the advantages of the LDM, but will additionally cut, score, etch, perforate and ablate any pattern or shape into the material. The LPM is available as a standard module or in the following options:
  • The LPM Dual Mode incorporates two interchangeable modes capable of high-speed processing in either the down-web direction or small patterns less than 170 mm in size.
  • The LPM Flex Series increases processing options with the ability to automatically adjust the processing area of view between two different sizes ranging from 140 x 140 mm to 600 x 600 mm.
  • The GT option uses optimized beam steering motors with lighter mirrors, resulting in faster processing speeds. The GT option can be applied to any LPM.

Laser Types

CO₂ (standard)

• CO₂ lasers are the most common laser type used in LaserSharp® systems to through cut, kiss-cut, score, etch, or perforate substrates.
• Available in 9.4, 10.25, and 10.6 micron laser wavelengths.
• CO₂ laser systems are best suited for processing non-metallic materials such as plastics, papers, polymers, textiles, foams, and adhesives.
• Common applications include:
  • Commercial print: greeting cards, folding cartons, brochures, business cards, stencils, and labels
  • Flexible packaging: easy-open and breathable packaging features
  • Industrial: gaskets and adhesive spacers
  • Medical: adhesive and plastic materials for medical components
  • Typical power output range: 40-1000 Watts

Fiber (f)

• Fiber laser systems are ideally suited for the ablation of thick, conductive coatings that would typically slow a UV laser. They are also capable of metal and plastic welding.
• Available in 1070 nanometer laser wavelength.
• Common applications include ablating, cutting, and welding materials used in the electronic and medical markets.
• Available in pulsed or continuous wave laser energy outputs.
• Typical power output range: 20-100 Watts

Ultraviolet (uv)

• UV laser systems are suitable for the fine ablation of very thin (<1 μm) conductive coatings or thin nonconductive coatings, which would otherwise be transparent to other laser wavelengths.
• Available in 355 nanometer laser wavelength.
• Common applications include ablating and cutting electronic components, biosensors, and precise electrode patterns.
• Typical power output range: 10-20 Watts
