Question 1

Which laser source should I select for marking stainless steel versus plastics?

Accepted Answer

A 1064 nm fiber laser is the standard choice for permanent, corrosion-resistant annealing and engraving on stainless steel and most metals. For light-coloured polymers, PET and PP, a UV (355 nm) or green (532 nm) source produces high-contrast cold marks without melting or charring the substrate. Our applications lab runs sample trials on your own parts before machine selection.

Question 2

How does high-speed laser cladding help meet Euro 7 and Bharat Stage 7 brake dust limits?

Accepted Answer

High-speed laser cladding deposits a metallurgically bonded, wear-resistant layer on grey cast-iron brake discs at deposition rates far above conventional laser metal deposition, with dilution typically under 5 percent and minimal heat input. The coated disc dramatically reduces non-exhaust particulate emissions and extends service life, supporting Euro 7 and Bharat Stage 7 compliance.

Question 3

What lead time and commissioning support can an export customer expect?

Accepted Answer

Standard machines ship from our Navi Mumbai plant after factory acceptance testing; special purpose machines follow a defined design-review, FAT and SAT sequence. Every delivery includes installation supervision, operator and maintenance training, spare-part kits and remote diagnostic support through our global service network.

Question 4

Can Scantech Laser integrate a laser process into an existing production line?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We build special purpose machines and robotic laser cells with part handling, vision alignment, fume extraction, Class 1 enclosures and PLC or MES connectivity, so the laser process can be retrofitted into an existing conveyor, indexing or robot-fed line.
