Lasers for Wire and Cable

Each year, billions of feet of cabling are installed around the world—requiring some kind of marking. Compared to other methods, laser wire marking offers unmatched precision, flexibility and speed without damaging the insulation or sheathing.

Mechanical, chemical and heat-based wire stripping methods require frequent cleaning, maintenance and adjustment and can also damage the conductor. Laser-based wire stripping overcomes these challenges. This non-contact approach keeps the conductive material and shield intact—eliminating weak spots for breakage or conductor resistance.

Wire and Cable Laser Applications

Laser wire marking produces permanent, high-contrast surface marks on all insulations without damage to the insulation and underlying wire as specified in aerospace (AS5649). These systems can achieve up to 120in per second depending on the font size and material properties.

  • Compliant with aerospace SAE standards
  • Mark medical-grade cables and metal wires
  • All laser sources available—depending on applications lab testing results of the material type, desired quality and speed

The Absolute Best Customer Service Around

Working with the entire Control Micro Systems team on our project was a pleasure. CMS was capable of meeting and exceeding our goals. They successfully designed and built a machine which increased our throughput by 550%! We are so glad we chose to move forward with CMS.

Jim B., Custom Wire Technologies, Inc.

In the three years ACR has owned the CMS laser, it has worked flawlessly. In the few instances where ACR needed support in programming, CMS was quick to respond.

Mike S., ACR Electronics, Inc.

CMS have been excellent partners in the development of new, complex equipment for our business. CMS built multiple machines for us. Each machine had a different purpose, however the CMS team worked openly & honestly with us to agree on optimal solutions for each one.
