In modern manufacturing, traditional component marking relied heavily on mechanical fixtures to secure parts in a fixed location. This approach presents significant limitations: high fixture setup costs, slow changeover times, and a vulnerability to misaligned markings on irregular or flexible surfaces.
Vision-Guided Laser Marking (VGLM) represents a structural shift. By integrating high-resolution CCD sensors with intelligent spatial coordinates translation algorithms, VGLM systems automatically locate, align, and mark products dynamically. Whether components are placed randomly on a moving conveyor belt, feed tray, or processing station, the visual positioning system instantly adapts, eliminating the reliance on static mechanical positioning.
This advanced integration offers distinct advantages for smart factories: it lowers cycle times, cuts down on human assembly errors, and enables seamless serialization. This is crucial for maintaining end-to-end traceability in high-volume production lines.
VGLM systems utilize two primary optical system topologies:

We collaborate with system integrators, distributors, and large-scale manufacturing brands to design bespoke laser modules. Our custom configurations feature specialized lighting, double-sided marking pathways, and multi-axis mechanical integration.
The Yangtze River Delta region is one of the world's most advanced precision manufacturing hubs. Kinray Laser leverages this high-tech industrial cluster to source top-tier optoelectronic components, precision galvo-scanners, and high-performance laser sources at competitive lead times.
Our vertical supply chain integration allows us to implement stringent quality control at every stage of production. From initial design to frame fabrication, final system assembly, and optical calibration, we ensure high quality while managing manufacturing costs. This approach enables us to deliver reliable laser equipment that meets global standards.
By partnering with Kinray Laser, global procurement departments gain access to rapid R&D iteration cycles, robust warranty coverage, and high-capacity production lines that ensure consistent delivery schedules.
In modern industrial applications, regulatory compliance and traceability are key operational requirements. Standards such as the FDA's Unique Device Identification (UDI) for medical components, automotive part tracing, and anti-counterfeiting tracking in consumer goods demand permanent, machine-readable markings.
Global supply chain networks require laser solutions that integrate into existing Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) and ERP platforms. Our vision-guided systems are designed for this connectivity, utilizing high-speed communication interfaces (Modbus, Profinet, TCP/IP) to report real-time marking data, vision verification outcomes, and equipment diagnostics directly to factory servers.
High-precision micro-marking on silicon wafers, printed circuit boards (PCBs), and integrated circuit (IC) housings. Coaxial UV laser vision systems accurately locate targets down to the micron level, minimizing the risk of thermal damage to surrounding circuitry.
Traceability marking on cast metals, aluminum brackets, and engine blocks. Large-field fiber laser systems with off-axis vision-guidance detect the orientation of raw castings on conveyor belts, automatically adjusting the marking path to compensate for minor placement variances.
UDI-compliant engraving on surgical instruments and double-sided coding on pharmaceutical container caps. Our UV laser systems provide clean, permanent markings that do not affect material integrity, while integrated vision systems verify readability in real time.
Take a look inside Kinray Laser's state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Hangzhou. We maintain rigorous standards for optical calibration, structural assembly, and final quality control.
Our standard vision-guided systems achieve alignment accuracies ranging from ±0.02mm to ±0.05mm, depending on the optical setup and the size of the camera's field of view (FOV). For specialized micro-marking applications utilizing high-magnification coaxial CCD cameras, accuracy can reach ±0.01mm.
Yes, we offer specialized vision solutions designed for "marking-on-the-fly" (MOTF) systems. These configurations combine high-speed area scan cameras with motion encoder feedback to match conveyor velocities, allowing for precise, continuous marking on automated production lines.
To ensure consistent operation in changing light conditions, Kinray systems feature integrated lighting configurations, including ring lights, dome lights, and coaxial lighting. In addition, our software relies on edge-detection and shape-matching algorithms that prioritize physical geometry over lighting changes, keeping performance stable.
Our software natively supports standard CAD and vector design file formats, including DXF, PLT, BMP, and AI. For factory automation and data exchange, the systems integrate with PLC units via standard industrial protocols, including Modbus, TCP/IP, and RS-232, enabling direct coordination with your MES or ERP databases.
