The compact ‘All In One’ laser station

Design

Compact, robust housing in “TableTop” design

Sliding door

Sliding door for quick insertion of workpieces

Maintenance

Low maintenance, almost noiseless operation possible

Plug and play

The AIOBox is a “plug and play” laser station. It can be easily connected to a PC via USB or network cable (LAN) and is immediately ready for use. The very simple start-up and the convenient equipment make the AIOBox a comfort model. Despite the compact design, the AIOBox has an exceptionally large loading volume. Depending on the lens used, a marking area of ​​up to 200 x 200 mm can be used.

The AIOBox is equipped with two separate safety circuits and meets the requirements of the Performance Level (PL e) according to EN ISO 13849-1.
The laser is safely switched off when the sliding door is opened and an emergency stop device is also available.

The suction system is prepared as standard for all AIOBox variants and the focus aid / pointer is available for all models.
The AIOBox is illuminated from the inside with LED for a clear view.

The AIOBox is compact and extremely quiet so that you could use the laser station undisturbed in the office or in a quiet environment.

With the proven XS Designer software, automated markings, such as consecutive serial numbers, 2D codes (DataMatrix), etc. can be easily implemented.

Simple and compact

The AIO laser is the most compact, Q-switched DPSS laser. AIO laser systems are offered in a robust and light monoblock design and enable a wide range of different marking applications that are also suitable for micromachining.

Thanks to the “All In One” monoblock design, there is no need for external optical fiber conductors and other sensitive cable connections for system integration. Optionally, the AIOBox can also be expanded if you want to mark larger workpieces, for example.

The easy and safe integration, even in confined spaces, is another plus of the AIO laser system.

Competitive in the fibre laser sector

The diode durability of the AIO laser systems can be favourably compared to fibre laser systems. During maintenance it is only necessary to change the diode packs instead of replacing the whole laser unit.

In addition, the power consumption of the AIO laser systems is highly efficient.
The AIOBox is available in the variants AIOBox P, AIOBox M and AIOBox G+.

For our various laser marking systems we have an extensive range of accessories available. With different options you can extend the functions of our marking lasers. Below are a few examples of our comprehensive range of laser accessories:

  • Various housing variants for complete solutions
  • Rotation axes for round parts, so that the processing distance and laser beam are always perfectly and precisely aligned with the object to be marked
  • Height axes in all possible versions (manual, electric, pneumatic, fully automatic)
  • Axis control UMC box Laser For controlling two additional functions, such as vertical axis and positioning axis. The rotary indexing table and magazine can also be controlled. With this optional laser accessory, cycle times for laser marking can be greatly reduced.

Anybus Communicator PROFINET IRT

The Anybus Communicator allows you to integrate serial devices (RS-232/422/485) into a PROFINET-IRT network.
The Anybus Communicator is a field-proven and reliable protocol converter that connects non-networked devices to PROFINET-IRT. The Com-municator carries out an intelligent protocol conversion and provides the serial data of the higher-level PLC as I/O data.
The Communicator is a compact stand-alone gateway for IP20 and DIN rail mounting that requires a 24-volt power supply. It complies with the current PROFINET-IRT specification and has been successfully tested for network compatibility.

The XS Designer software combines marking software, CAD editor, parameter and interface management, sequence programming and diagnostic tools. This Windows-based marking software makes laser technology easy to master.

Further information about the XS Designer software can be found here.
