Videojet® 7340/7440

The Videojet 7340 (20-Watt) and 7440 (30-Watt) fiber
lasers are the first to feature the LightfootTM marking head, making them easy to integrate, operate and service.

The Lightfoot marking head is one of a kind, smallest in the industry both in size and weight, and IP69 rated for use in washdown and harsh environments. These fiber lasers, designed to deliver high-quality, permanent codes for a wide range of marking applications, are an ideal solution for parts-marking, food, beverage, consumer packaged goods, pharmaceutical and cosmetics manufacturers who have space limitations, are looking for simple integrations, or do frequent rapid changeovers.

Uptime Advantage

  • Achieve simple integration, reduced installation costs, and an
    increased freedom of positioning with an industry-first, compact,
    fiber laser marking head
  • Simplify laser head adjustment and positioning with reduced laser
    head mounting bracketry
  • Easily migrate to a laser marking solution, with the added benefit
    of reduced consumables
  • Reduce the need for additional housing or equipment with a water
    and dust tight IP69 laser marking head, facilitating worry-free
    usage in washdown and harsh environments

Code Assurance

  • Control the laser through a range of familiar, easy-to-use user
    interfaces, reducing operator training needs and the risk of product
    rework and recalls
  • Benefit from simple operation, message creation and reduced
    operator errors with the Videojet Touch Control Software (TCS+) or
    the Videojet CLARiTYTM laser controller

Built-in productivity

  • Mark up to 2,000 characters per second
  • Get closer to the product with the smallest fiber laser marking
    head on the market
  • Benefit from easier, faster and precise focal distance during line
    or product changeover with pilot beam-based focal alignment
    installation process

Simple usability

  • Achieve easy set-up and fast product changeovers with the
    integrated pilot beam focus finder that can reflect the code and
    actual size of the marking field
  • Benefit from easy serviceability with the ability to quickly remove
    or replace the fiber laser unit either on the production line or within
    complex machineryNo PC required for stand-alone operation saves space and increases
    reliability
  • Focus more on production and less on user interaction and
    maintenance with an easy-to-use laser solution that is intuitive to
    the operator without the need for additional training
