FOBA's laser integrated vision system IMP (Intelligent Mark Positioning) is the heart of the market‘s simplest and most complete laser marking process solution called HELP, Holistic Enhanced Laser Process. With the concept of integrating the vision system directly into the marking system, we offer our customers a unique, simple and broad part marking workflow solution that ensures the highest production performance. The patented IMP high-speed camera system automatically detects work pieces and their positions and aligns the etching accordingly, ensuring precision and repeatability. IMP consistently provides premium-quality markings and produces a measurable reduction in the number of defective products. This makes the camera system ideal for automated series production. Many users have to strictly comply to defined processes, particularly if the mark position accuracy has a significant added value. IMP validates the part integrity, measures its position and automatically aligns the marking relative to the part. IMP provides the capability to achieve premark and/or post-mark verifications. Pre-mark verification prevents users from marking already marked parts. The post-mark verification validates that the mark placement is accurate. This feature also helps check for poor contrast marks that can be caused by an early degradation of the laser performance or a change in material characteristics.
