Choosing the Right Laser for Your Needs
Application Scenarios
You need to choose the right laser based on where and how you work. In automotive, medical, or electronics, both lasers can help, but in different ways. MOPA fiber lasers are better for busy production: engraving metal parts, tools, and some medical components. UV lasers are ideal for gentle, high-precision work like small marks on syringes, serial numbers on surgical tools, and clean IDs on circuit boards.
Here is a quick view of common uses:
