Vision Systems 

Focused on precision, economy, and marking and engraving quality without compromise 

Intelligent Mark Positioning IMP Point & Shoot TM 

Automatic visual component detection and marking/engraving alignment Manual visual component detection and marking/engraving alignment 

Perfect for automated series processing Perfect for high-quality work pieces and individual part production 

Patented vision system that automatically detects the position of 

work pieces and to be processed areas and aligns the marking, engraving 

or frosting precisely as required. 

Camera system for the manual positioning of marking contents on to be 

marked products. The camera focuses (through the lens) on the marking field, 

creates an image of the component, and displays it in the user interface. 

The user creates the marking and places it (via drag & drop) precisely where 

it should be applied on the product. 

Optical inspection for the validation of the final marking and checking of whether all information to be included has been marked. 

Both image-based processes allow an advance verification of marking and marking position and thus help to avoid expensive production stops and 

time-consuming trial-and-error processes.

tronics industry. This continuous wave fiber laser 

marker* has been primarily designed to mark molded 

housings of discrete and integrated components as 

well as circuit boards, precisely, with high quality and 

in the shortest of time. Moreover, the LF050 is also 

suitable for marking foils, films, bags and composite 

packagings used in the packaging industries. 

The range of information that can be marked (expiry/ 

manufacturer’s dates, batch/ line numbers, ID matrix/ 

bar codes, graphics, individual data, etc.) is virtually unli- 

mited, and can be applied both to stationary as well as 

to moving parts (marking on the fly). 

With the LF050 line widths well below 30 µm can 

be achieved, enabeling character heights of 150 µm 

and less.

accurate and fast. DP30FGS applies all industry-wide stipulated contents both in 

best marking quality and in high-resolution: be it owner-related data, graphics, photos, logos, 

2D codes, Multiple Laser Images (MLI), Changeable Laser Images (CLI) or tactile markings. 

In the end, sensitive documents are prepared to meet strict worldwide safety requirements, 

and are protected against misuse and counterfeit. This is what security means. And this is 

how security feels like: simply safe. 


→ Absolutely counterfeit-proof 

→ Maximum marking quality and easy setup 

→ More flexibility 

→ 30 % lower operating costs at up to

DP2UV 


With the innovative diode laser DP2UV FOBA expands its product portfolio into the 

ultra violet range. The novel resonator design guarantees an efficient laser power in 

the medium range of 2 W with a wavelength of 355 nm. 

The typical pulse duration of 20 ns at a beam diameter of 20 µm now allows „cold 

marking“ predominantly by photochemical reactions. High quality markings with 

reduced material damage are the highlights e.g. in marking of flame protected 

plastics and glass.

State-of-the-art components for excellent beam quality and compactness at the 

same time, this was the main focus for the development of the new laser DP50F. 

The pulsed fiber laser with its high power reserves expands the existing laser series 

in the upper power range, thereby reducing the cycle times significantly. Because of 

the small dimensions of the laser head this system is ideally suited to be integrated

The Hardware 

Modular, flexible, ergonomic 

FOBA G3 is a laser processing machine for laser marking 

(including inner ring markings), 2D/3D deep laser engraving, 

surface patterning and finishing. The G3 is available as 

rotary table machine or as X/Y cross table station. It can be 

equipped with a laser system that is suited for the customerspecific 

application. Up to five axes can be set up and driven 

either manually or fully automatically (X, Y, Z, swivel axis, 

rotary unit). 

With a footprint of 1.4 m 2 , FOBA G3 fits through standard 

doors. As a result of the compact design, the workstation 

can easily be integrated into any lab environment. 

The stable machine frame and alignable and repeatable 

axes ensure repeatable machine operation, accurate markings 

and exact documentation over a significant period of time. 

The ergonomic machine for standing and seated work 

accommodates the individual user’s needs: The input table 

(with monitor and keyboard) is vertically adjustable, the 

monitor can also be swivelled.

Model Applications 

Implants 

The Software 

Intuitive, powerful, safe 

FOBA EMC and FOBA MarkUS, intuitive user interfaces for 

engraving and marking, create user-friendly and flexible 

programming environments with program traceability and 

axes control. FOBA EMC is the central control software for all 

engravings (3D); FOBA MarkUS TM is the software for all laser 

marking applications (2D). 

In the full version, FOBA EMC comes with the 3D software 

FOBA 3D. As an option, the vision system IMP can be added. 

FOBA MarkUS is available with the camera systems IMP 

and Point & Shoot for automated or manual vision alignment. 

→ Software security features: several freely configurable, 

password protected user access levels 

→ MarkUS archive feature: all-in-one job file format 

(mark data, layout positions, parameters, etc.) for easy 

archival and retrieval of jobs to any location 

For precision and repetition accuracy: 

Vision alignment with IMP and Point & Shoot 

The vision systems IMP (Intelligent Mark Positioning) and Point & Shoot 

ensure ultimate precision and repeatability as well as micron-precise 

processings and a fully computer-controlled process. 

The patented camera system IMP automatically detects work pieces and their 

positioning, and adjusts the marking/engraving accordingly. That is why 

IMP is ideal for automated batch production. 

→ Reduction of scrap and mismarked parts through vision alignment: 

Elimination of the wrong mark on the wrong part by visually verifying 

the proper part geometry prior to marking; should this part validation fail, 

the part is not marked; an error message is written, communicating the 

failure to the user. 

→ Automatic component alignment: IMP adjusts automatically to changes in 

the component and the component position. Users in special markets 

such as medical technology or the pharmaceutical industry are bound to 

strict adherence to defined processes. Possible changes to accepted marking 

templates must therefore be documented in detail. In that the IMP 

vision alignment system detects changed component positions and defective 

or flawed parts automatically and aligns the marking relative to these, 

it is no longer or only very seldom necessary to adapt marking jobs and 

thus existing processes. 

With Point & Shoot marking contents are placed manually directly on a 

screen image of the product to be marked. This system is perfect for the processing 

of high-quality work pieces and individual parts. 

Both imaging systems allow an upfront verification of what the mark will 

look like and where it will be. IMP and Point & Shoot TM thus help to reduce 

high-cost fixtures and help to avoid expensive production stops and timeconsuming 

trial-and-error processes. 

→ More profitability and productivity: Work time savings due to faster 

production, reduction of expenses for product holders and fixtures 

→ Consistent highest marking/engraving quality and accuracy without 

compromise

Preliminary Datasheet 

FOBA M2000-B 

Advanced laser marking workstations for 

reliability and economic parts marking 

The M-Series is FOBA's new generation of advanced laser marking workstations 

for the precise and economic processing of small, large and geometrically 

complex work pieces as well as small and large batches of parts. The 

M-Series is available in two sizes (M2000 and M3000) and with three model 

options each (B: with work table, R: with turntable, P: with axes X/Y/Z). 

The laser marking workstation M2000-B is equipped with a programmable 

Z axis, a work table and an electric lift door. The manually loaded general- 

purpose marking machine is perfect for marking smaller and larger parts – 

among others in the automotive and tools and metal industries, mechanical 

engineering, medical technology or in plastic processing industries. 


→ Precision and process reliability: highly rigid workstation 

(polymer concrete), intelligent imaging technology 

→ Flexibility: integration into customer processes, various 

laser systems available, accessories and options for optimal 

customization 

→ Economy: small footprint (1 sqm), optimal accessibility, 

air-cooled laser systems 

→ Ergonomics: height-adjustable workstation for standing/ 

seated work, individual adapation to user's needs 

Steering wheel housing: color 

change on plastic | Ejector pins: 

black marking on metal


For precision and process reliability: 

Highly rigid workstation, intelligent imaging 

The highly rigid construction of the M2000 workstation together with the patented vision 

alignment and verification system IMP (Intelligent Mark Positioning) ensure ultimate precision 

and process reliability. As a result, all marks and processings are executed precisely and 

with repeat accuracy. 

Highly rigid polymer concrete workstation 

The workstation's polymer concrete slab is float-mounted on the machine frame. As a result 

all M-Series workstations are insensitive to variations in temperature and vibrations and 

ensure ultimate process reliability and stability. 

Automatic mark alignment and verification 

The camera system IMP automatically detects 

work pieces and their positioning, and 

adjusts the marking/engraving accordingly. 

IMP also detects changes in the part geometry 

or position and defective or faulty components. 

Either the processing is re-aligned 

automatically or – in the case of parts with 

negative test results – completely skipped. 

The operator is informed with an error message 

instead. Thus, IMP ensures less scrap 

and mismarked products. 

More flexibility 

for individual processes 

With its verification feature, IMP provides the 

capability to achieve pre-mark or post-mark 

verifications. The pre-mark verification feature 

prevents over marking already marked 

parts. The post-mark verification validates 

that the mark placement is accurate (position 

and orientation). This feature also helps check 

for poor contrast marks that can be caused by 

an early degradation of the laser performance 

or a change in material characteristics. 

Verification report: Due to bumps on the 

surface of the raw material, part #6 failed the 

inspection, the Y position exceeded the 0.1 mm 

tolerance. 

The M-Series adapts to the customer's laser process and not vice versa. The 

workstation provides the flexibility that is needed to design, extend, ensure 

and implement these laser processes. 

→ Interfaces in the working chamber of the workstation for the integration of 

auxiliary equipment or instruments (cameras, measurement devices, sensors, 

etc.) are available as an option 

→ Flexible machine control for the integration of additional process steps 

(quality assurance/control, etc.) 


Detects parts/positions, and 

aligns the processing automatically 

and precisely as required. 

Thus, IMP ensures consistent 

highest marking/engraving 

quality and accuracy without 

compromise. 

More efficiency 

in the smallest space 

The minimal footprint (1 sqm) and optimal 

workstation accessibility ensure more 

efficiency in the smallest space. 

The compact marking machine is designed 

for maximum utilization of space and optimal 

service and maintenance accessibility. 

→ Access for loading: from the front 

→ Access for service and maintenance: 

from the front and through all lateral doors 

(on both sides, in front and at the back) 

More ergonomics 

for maximum ease of use 

Designed for both standing and seated work, and highly 

adaptable to individual needs, the M-Series provides maximum 

ease of use and meets all requirements for ergonomic 

working: 

→ Electrical height adjustment for seated 

or standing work, each intermediate 

position is adjustable, height adjustment 

range: 750 ‒ 1,050 mm. 

→ Control panel (with monitor, keyboard 

and computer mouse): workstation can 

be configured with panel on the left or 

right side of the machine. 

→ Major control elements and status 

displays are directly integrated in the 

front of the workstation to ensure 

optimal accessibility. 

→ Complete machine room is accessible: 

Loading from the front, workstation access 

(for service, maintenance) from the front 

and from all lateral doors.

MarkUS TM Designer suite with examples of marking contents

For precision and repeatability: 

Vision alignment with IMP and Point & Shoot 

The vision systems IMP (Intelligent Mark Positioning) and Point & Shoot 

ensure ultimate precision and repeatability. 

The patented camera system IMP automatically detects work pieces and their 

positioning, and adjusts the marking/engraving accordingly. That is why 

IMP is ideal for automated batch production. 

→ Reduction of scrap and mismarked parts through vision alignment: 

Elimination of the wrong mark on the wrong part by visually verifying 

the proper part geometry prior to marking; should this part validation fail, 

the part is not marked; an error message is written, communicating the 

failure to the user. 

With Point & Shoot marking contents are placed manually directly on a 

screen image of the product to be marked. This system is perfect for the processing 

of high-quality work pieces and individual parts. 

The Point & Shoot TM camera focuses (through the lens) on the marking field*, 

creates an image of the component, and displays it in the MarkUS TM user interface. 

The user creates the marking and places it (via drag & drop) precisely 

where it should be applied on the product. Less scrap, more economy, and increased 

productivity are the results. 

* The visual field of the camera depends on the configuration of the laser optics used. 

→ Automatic mark alignment: Users from different markets are bound to 

strictly comply to defined processes, particularly if the mark position accuracy 

has a significant added value. The IMP vision alignment system validates 

the part integrity, measures its position and automatically aligns the 

marking relative to the part. 

→ Automatic mark verification: With its verification feature, IMP provides the 

capability to achieve pre-mark or post-mark verifications. The pre-mark 

verification feature prevents over marking already marked parts. The postmark 

verification validates that the mark placement is accurate (position 

and orientation). This feature also helps check for poor contrast marks that 

can be caused by an early degradation of the laser performance or a 

change in material characteristics. 

Both imaging systems allow an upfront verification of what the mark will 

look like and where it will be. IMP and Point & Shoot TM thus help to reduce 

high-cost fixtures and help to avoid expensive production stops and timeconsuming 

trial-and-error processes. 

→ More profitability and productivity: Work time savings due to faster 

production, reduction of expenses for product holders and fixtures 

→ Consistent highest marking/engraving quality and accuracy without 

compromise 

Practical add-on: The Point & Shoot TM camera image can also be 

used for focusing: A) Blurry/not focused correctly, B) Focused correctly, 

C) Marked perfectly

FOBA DataMaster 

Intelligent data distribution software: Easy to use and set up. 

Clear and intuitive. 

DataMaster is an intelligent program for the balanced distribution of data – such as various codes – from source files to up to 

eight FOBA laser marking systems. The software is perfect for applications where large amounts of highly sensitive data are 

to be distributed synchronously. DataMaster is especially suited for applications requiring data security and demanding ultimate 

operator ease-of-use. DataMaster is a real graphical user interface program; it helps users to reduce code errors and 

waste, and increases uptime while quickly marking products and parts with the requested contents. 


→ 

→ 

Clear and intuitive: The DataMaster display was created 

with the operator in mind. The cell-based screen layout 

provides for utmost clarity, is easy to follow and intuitively 

guides the user with a limited set of icons, sensible 

text and color codes. 

Cutting-edge screen concept for utmost clarity: The entire 

UI is always visible, including status of all connected lasers, 

campaigns, users, settings and performance. By 

clicking into a cell, the UI changes by enlarging the active 

cell and compressing all other cells. Intuitive navigation.

→ 

1-2-3: Logging and excluding: DataMaster comes with an 

extensive logging feature that enables tracking of actions 

related to campaigns (setup, start/stop marking), data import 

and printed codes. The software is capable of intelligently 

distinguishing between general data and “special” 

winning data, and provides a visual code safety feature. If 

codes have been used once, their respective data file is 

grayed out in the display. Thus, they are excluded from 

being marked a second time. Users can also create special 

exclusion lists for data being excluded for marking.
