LASER SURFACE TREATMENT
High-end laser technology with GEFASOFT
LASER SURFACE TREATMENT
FOR INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS
For over 30 years, we have supported companies in integrating and automating precision laser technology in their production lines.
Whether cleaning, structuring, labeling or marking – modern laser systems ensure stable processes, high flexibility and consistently reproducible results.
Building on this, as an experienced machine builder, GEFASOFT develops software- and vision-assisted laser systems for industrial laser processing – with a focus on reproducibility, component flexibility, integrated quality assurance and end-to-end traceability.

OUR LASER SURFACE TREATMENT PROCESSES
LASER LABELING
AND
LASER MARKING
Laser labeling refers to labeling or marking objects using a focused laser beam. Unlike laser printing, where only the application of pigment is controlled, laser labeling directly alters the material surface.
Advantages:
- Permanent, abrasion- and chemical-resistant
- High precision even for the smallest codes (QR, DataMatrix)
- Ideal for traceability and serial numbers
- Fully automatable in production lines
LASER CLEANING
AND
LASER STRUCTURING
Laser cleaning enables contactless removal of contaminants such as oxides or residues using a focused laser beam, without affecting the base material.
In laser structuring, defined micro- and macro-structures are created through precise processing in order to specifically modify the functional properties of the surface.
Typical applications:
- Cleaning joining surfaces to prepare for adhesive bonding or welding processes
- Removing injection molding residues (mold cleaning)
- Structuring to improve adhesion or friction properties

We combine laser processes with industrial machine vision
The combination of laser technology and machine vision is a key component of our systems. It enables not only precise alignment and processing, but also continuous monitoring and safeguarding of the process.
- Position correction and component alignment
- Real-time process monitoring
- Inline quality assurance
- Focus determination
