SmartLase C150/C350

The SmartLase C350S 30-watt CO2 laser coder is designed for high-speed PET beverage production and provides crisp codes even in wet environments. SmartLase C150S is the 10-watt CO2 option for medium-speed lines.

Key benefits

  • Flexibility to code in various packaging positions and orientations
  • No risk of perforation, even on lightweight PET bottles
  • Qualified for integration into the fastest filling and blower machines (Krones, KHS, Sidel Super Combi)
  • Replaces 50 to 60-watt lasers reducing energy costs

Key features

  • A Wavelength of 10.6 µm provides the flexibility to code a wide range of surfaces.
  • Print at speeds up to 2,100* characters/s (per second)
  • The optimal wavelength of 9.3 µm for PET bottles and sleeves
  • Protocol specifically optimized for high-speed bottling lines, e.g. Krones Checkmat, to enable advanced traceability requirements for such lines
