ML-9011A
Overview of the
ML-9011A
The ML-9011A is an air-cooled second-harmonic generation (SHG) laser marker (532 nm) that uses a
diode laser (LD) for Nd:YVO
4
crystal excitation.
This marker produces wavelengths half the length of fundamental wavelengths (1064 nm), providing
marking spots of half the width for even greater marking precision. In addition to marking, the ML-9011A
can be used for highly detailed machining, including fine cutting work.

Supports marking of highly reflective materials
The ML-9011A can mark highly reflective materials that cannot be marked with 1064 nm lasers.
Such materials include polyimide and other resins as well as copper, gold, and various other
metals.
•
Single-mode marking
As single-mode lasers, YVO
4
laser markers focus beam energy into a single spot. For this and
other reasons, thermal efficiency surpasses conventional YAG lasers for reduced heat effects
outside the processing area.
•
More stable at high frequencies
Nd:YVO
4
lasers are more stable at high frequencies, an advantage that affords exceptional
marking quality for materials commonly marked at high frequencies, such as resins.
■
ML-9011A
•
Compact and lightweight
Ideal for production lines where space is limited.
•
Energy efficient
Low power consumption, thanks to a highly efficient diode laser.
•
Fully air-cooled
Easy maintenance. Fully air-cooledno coolant or coolant filters needed.
•
Compatible with PCs running Windows operating systems
The product is bundled with the LMDraw6 Windows-based marking application. Figures created
with commercial CAD software are easily registered as marking data.
•
High-speed marking
Engraves 550 characters per second.
•
Seven marking ranges
Choose the best marking range for the shape of your workpiece, in diameter of 80 mm, or areas
of 49 x 49 mm, 74 x 74 mm, 98 x 98 mm, 141 x 141 mm, 175 x 175 mm, or 216 x 216 mm. In the
digital scanner specification, diameter and area are slightly different.
•
Large, easy-to-read screen for graphics
The Windows-based operating window provides a large, easy-to-see drawing area.
