FAQsAREX 400

Can it mark stainless steel?

Yes. AREX 400 excels at marking stainless steel via annealing, etching, and deep engraving—ideal for UDI, serials, and traceability.

Does it support serialization and dynamic coding?

Absolutely. Using Lighter software, you can create dynamic fields for serial numbers, shift codes, QR/Data Matrix, and external data inputs.

Is it suitable for robotic and inline automation?

Yes. Its ultra-compact head and embedded controller make AREX 400 perfect for space-constrained robotic cells and automated lines.

What makes fiber lasers better than inkjet or labels?

Fiber lasers like AREX 400 offer permanent marks, zero consumables, no surface contact, and minimal maintenance — with a much lower TCO (total cost of ownership).
