DANAPR model range
Fiber laser marking machine models
The model names below are confirmed DANAPR product information. Rated laser power is shown only where it has been provided; final configuration must be selected against the actual marking task.
| Model | Rated laser power | Selection note |
|---|---|---|
| DANAPR F3030 | 30 W | Confirm against the material, code, marking field and production test. |
| DANAPR F3050 | 50 W | Confirm against the material, code, marking field and production test. |
| DANAPR F3100 | 100 W | Confirm against the material, code, marking field and production test. |
| DANAPR F3200 | 200 W | Confirm against the material, code, marking field and production test. |
| DANAPR D8020 D Series | To be confirmed | D Series rated power and configuration require an approved data sheet. |
| DANAPR D8030 D Series | To be confirmed | D Series rated power and configuration require an approved data sheet. |
| DANAPR D8050 D Series | To be confirmed | D Series rated power and configuration require an approved data sheet. |
Configuration note: D8020, D8030 and D8050 are DANAPR D Series fiber laser models; their rated powers have not yet been supplied. Model numbers are not used to infer specifications. Final configuration depends on the material, required code, marking field, cycle and representative production test.
Best fit
Where fiber laser marking can be evaluated
Fiber laser is a common starting point for industrial parts that require a durable, non-contact mark. Suitability still depends on the exact substrate and target result.
Industrial components
Review available marking access, part orientation, fixture repeatability and the permitted surface effect.
Selected plastics
Use material-specific samples because resin, additive, colour and surface condition can change contrast and quality.
Engineering selection
Define the mark before choosing a configuration
The same part can require different process settings and equipment arrangements depending on the required effect and production method.
- Confirm material grade, coating, colour, finish and part geometry.
- Define content, dimensions, location, contrast, depth and permanence.
- Record cycle time, product movement, fixturing and operator loading.
- Map marking access, mounting, guarding, extraction and maintenance space.
- Agree visual quality, readability and process-response acceptance criteria.
Evidence boundary: DANAPR model names and the numeric rated laser powers shown in the table are confirmed. D Series power values and all other specifications remain unpublished until approved data sheets and test records are available. Final selection requires a representative sample and application review.
Qualification workflow
Move from sample to production acceptance
A controlled test path reduces the risk of selecting around a generic material name.
Sample
Collect representative parts for each alloy, colour, coating and finish.
Mark
Use the target artwork, code size, location and required surface result.
Integrate
Review handling, trigger, focal position, guarding, extraction and controls.
Accept
Document approved appearance, readability, position and cycle conditions.
Technology comparison
Check fiber laser against the alternative
This table supports initial routing only; it is not a guarantee of material compatibility or performance.
| Decision factor | Fiber laser starting point | Alternative to compare |
|---|---|---|
| Metal or selected plastic | Test when a permanent mark or surface effect is required | UV or another laser process when heat input or fine detail is the main concern |
| Removable or changeable code | Usually not the first choice | CIJ or another ink-based process after adhesion and drying tests |
| Organic or packaging material | Material response may not match the target | CO2, UV, TTO or inkjet according to substrate and package format |
| Integrated verification | Add vision when code presence or readability must be checked | Define camera, lighting, pass criteria and line response separately |
Qualification limits
When not to choose a fiber laser
Another technology may be more appropriate when the material, desired result or installation conditions do not support fiber laser marking.
- The real sample does not produce acceptable contrast, readability or surface quality.
- The mark must be removable or changed after application.
- The product cannot be presented consistently within the marking field.
- Required guarding, extraction or safe access cannot be integrated.
- A different laser wavelength or ink process performs better in the approved test.
FAQ
Fiber laser marking machine questions
What materials can be evaluated for fiber laser marking?
Metals and selected plastics are common starting points, but grade, coating, colour and required mark effect can change the result. Representative sample testing is required.
Is a fiber laser the right choice for every metal marking project?
No. The material, surface finish, desired contrast or depth, cycle, code size, safety and extraction scope must be reviewed before selection.
What information is needed for a fiber laser marking trial?
Provide representative parts, material grade and finish, target artwork or code, mark size, production cycle, handling method, installation space and acceptance criteria.
Can a fiber laser marking machine be integrated into an existing line?
Integration can be assessed after product presentation, trigger or encoder, controls, guarding, extraction, focal access and operator access are defined.
