TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
OVERVIEW
The LW3 is a large fully automated laser workstation with Fiber, MOPA, Hybrid or Green sources. Offers high speed operation, from unit to small batch production, with the highest safety standards. Production-ready and integrable into robot cells.
The LW3 is a fully enclosed, automated laser marking workstation designed for production environments that demand both throughput and safety. With its Up to 875 x 300 mm marking area and Fiber / MOPA / Hybrid / Green source options, the LW3 handles everything from unit-level personalization to medium-batch production runs. The Class 1 safety enclosure means the machine can operate in any environment — no laser safety officer required, no restricted zones, no protective eyewear.
Built for the factory floor, the LW3 features automated door operation, programmable Z-axis focus, and optional conveyor integration for inline production. The Fiber / MOPA / Hybrid / Green source delivers maintenance-free operation with an expected lifetime exceeding 100,000 hours — eliminating the consumable costs and downtime associated with older laser technologies. Combined with Gravotech's LaserTrace software for traceability or LaserStyle for general marking, the LW3 provides a complete marking solution that integrates seamlessly into modern manufacturing workflows.

High-Speed Galvo Scanning
Galvanometer-driven mirrors steer the laser beam at speeds exceeding 7,000 mm/s — dramatically faster than gantry-based systems.
Fiber / MOPA / Hybrid / Green Source
Fiber / MOPA / Hybrid / Green technology delivers maintenance-free operation with 100,000+ hour expected lifetime — no consumable tubes or gases.
Permanent Marking
Creates marks that are physically part of the material surface — resistant to chemicals, abrasion, heat, and UV exposure.
Flexible Work Area
Up to 875 x 300 mm marking field configurable with different focal length lenses to optimize for your specific part size and detail requirements.
Advanced Capabilities
Fully automated, conveyor ready, PLC integration
MATERIAL COMPATIBILITY
