Control Micro Systems manufactures computer controlled turnkey industrial laser systems that are designed and built to your specific laser needs. By using laser systems designed by Control Micro Systems which will meet the DoD requirement, you can create UID Markings and 2D Matrix Barcode Symbols on a variety of surfaces!
A general accounting study in 1992 estimated that the DoD could have saved $2 billion in inventory through having better information about their inventory by etching a Data Matrix Symbol permanently on each part.
Each UID symbol can use UCC.EAN, ANSI MH 10.8.2 or ATA style descriptors.
By using a Data Matrix Symbol laser etching system to engrave a UID onto each part, you will be able to uniquely identify items by manufacturer, part number and serial number.
Vendors supplying parts to the Department of Defense are required to supply parts with UID Data Matrix Symbols conforming to MIL-STD 130M.
Marking with 2D Matrix Bar Codes also add a level of security as they may be encrypted so only your software will be able to scan the item.
CMS Laser meets or exceeds all quality standards required for laser etching. We offer CO2, Nd:YAG, and Nd:YVO4 solid-state lasers and specialize in systems configured to your specific requirements, including vision systems, part-handling workstations and full integration with computer networks.
Control Micro Systems can perform UID laser etching and engraving of 2D Data Matrix Symbols onto a variety of parts that will satisfy ATA Spec 2000, DoD requirement MIL STD 130M, ISO/IEC 15415, SAE AS9132, Aerospace IAQG AS9132 or ISO 16022 standards.
By using our Laser Marking systems to etch your UID's, you can virtually mark and identify anything including crystal, glass, pharmaceutical tablets, plastics, stainless steel, auto parts and more.
CMS Laser's beam-steered laser systems have no inks to store, clog, or clean up and no masks to replace. Changes to images and text are only a few keystrokes away. Call the CMS Sales Department at (407) 679-9716 to learn how you can put our low-maintenance, cost-efficient laser technology to work for you.
