GENERAL 1.2 Designated Use The Trotec Speedy 300 fiber is used for marking on metals and plastics. Many metals and most plastics will show interaction with the laser beam. However, very clean metallic surfaces which are highly polished and pure could show NO reaction. This is due to too high reflectivity at 1064nm wavelength which is given especially for silver and copper.
It is recommended to enter data such as serial number and year of manufacture into the manufacturer's label above so that you always have this data at hand when required. 28/07/2015 Trotec Produktions- und Vertriebs GmbH_Linzer Strasse 156, A-4600 Wels, Austria, Technical Support 8 / 54 tel_+43 (0)7242 239-7000, fax_+43 (0)7242 239-7380, mailto:...
