# GalenWear GW/JW Laser Split CO₂ Glass Tube Laser Engraving Machine<br /> <br /> The GalenWear split CO₂ glass tube laser engraving machine features a **glass CO₂ laser tube + split structure design**, with the laser tube and power supply cabinet independently separated and connected to the scanning head via optical fiber hoses. The head is lightweight, allowing for independent hanging, side installation, or mounting on a stand. It primarily targets cost-effective non-metal engraving and marking, making it suitable for stores, small workshops, and small-batch packaging processing for customers with limited budgets.<br /> <br /> ## ✅ Product Principle<br /> <br /> The 10.6μm infrared CO₂ laser uses a glass discharge tube filled with a CO₂ mixture gas, which generates laser through high-voltage glow discharge. The laser is scanned by mirrors and focused by an Fθ lens to vaporize the surface of the material, creating permanent text, LOGOs, or QR codes. The split layout separates the bulky glass tube and power supply, while the marking head is lightweight, facilitating integration into simple fixtures and equipped with a water-cooled circulation cooling system.<br /> <br /> ## ✅ Core Advantages<br /> <br /> 1. **Flexible split installation, unrestricted placement**<br /> The laser tube, water tank, and power cabinet are separated from the marking head, resulting in a compact head size. It can be installed vertically, inverted, or sideways, making it ideal for limited workspace scenarios. Compared to all-in-one cabinets, it offers easier integration with simple production line brackets or custom fixtures.<br /> 2. **Outstanding cost-effectiveness, low procurement and replacement costs**<br /> The glass tube costs significantly less than RF metal tubes. When the laser tube ages, it can be replaced directly, with readily available spare parts, making it suitable for budget-conscious customers and non-24/7 continuous production environments.<br /> 3. **Water-cooled cooling, stable continuous output**<br /> Equipped with an industrial water-cooled system to continuously dissipate heat from the glass tube, reducing power attenuation, and suitable for medium-speed engraving and marking of bamboo, wood, leather, cardstock, and acrylic.<br /> 4. **Comprehensive software features, easy to operate**<br /> Compatible with formats such as DXF, PLT, AI, and BMP; supports red light preview, serial numbers, date/batch marking, barcodes, and QR codes; and allows for layered engraving and batch variable data.<br /> 5. **Expandable options**<br /> Can be equipped with a rotating fixture for processing bamboo tubes and round wooden handles; optional fume extraction; and simple upgrade to a flying kit for low-speed production line marking.<br /> <br /> ## ✅ Materials Suitable for Processing<br /> <br /> Leather, fabric, paper packaging boxes, bamboo, wood, acrylic, rubber, silicone, dual-color boards, resin, ceramic, and glass surface marking.<br /> <br /> > <br /> > Note: Glass tube CO₂ models **cannot directly mark bare metal**; for metal marking, use the fiber series. Prioritize high-speed fine small text and 24/7 industrial mass production with RF split machines.<br /> <br /> ## ✅ Typical Application Industries<br /> <br /> - Craft gifts: Wood signs, bamboo slips, wooden ornaments, acrylic accessories<br /> - Fashion accessories: Leather labels, woven labels, shoe and hat LOGOs<br /> - Graphic packaging: Paper boxes, hang tags, cardstock labels, rubber stamps<br /> - Small creative workshops, store orders, sample marking<br /> <br /> ## ✅ Machine Configuration Options<br /> <br /> Power: 30W / 40W / 50W / 60W glass CO₂ tube<br /> Marking size: 70×70mm, 110×110mm, 150×150mm, 175×175mm<br /> Standard configuration: CO₂ glass laser tube, high-speed scanning head, split power supply/water tank cabinet, optical fiber hose,升降立柱, red light positioning, water-cooled unit, marking software<br /> Optional: Rotating fixture, fume extraction unit, simple flying kit, CE full export documentation<br /> <br /> ## ✅ Comparison with Split RF CO₂ Laser Engraving Machine<br /> <br /> - Split RF tube: Features finer beam spots, faster response, and longer lifespan, suitable for high-speed flying, 24/7 factory mass production, and fine small text/QR codes, but at a higher price;<br /> - ✅ Split glass tube: More affordable, with cheaper spare parts, suitable for stores, small batches, and medium-speed processing;缺点是光斑略粗、高速小字效果一般、激光管寿命较短，需要定期更换。<br /> <br /> ## ✅ After-Sales Service & Support<br /> <br /> GalenWear offers direct factory supply with free sample testing; remote commissioning and training, with on-site installation available; comprehensive machine warranty, export documentation and certificates; and is seeking global agent partnerships.
