Compact CO2 Laser Marking
M500C CO2 Laser Marking Machine
The M500C CO2 Laser is a compact CO2-based marking option for packaging and production-line coding. It is designed for non-contact date codes, batch codes, traceability marks and product identification on flexible packaging, PET, paper, cartons and other suitable non-metal materials.

Where It Fits
Compact CO2 laser coding for packaging lines
M500C is positioned for production environments that need non-contact coding on suitable packaging materials with practical integration and lower consumable dependency than ink-based workflows.
Flexible packaging direction
Useful for evaluating date codes, lot codes and traceability marks on films, sleeves, PET and selected packaging surfaces.
Compact line fit
The system can be considered where installation space, product detection and conveyor integration need to be reviewed together.
Clean code workflow
For matched substrates, CO2 laser marking can reduce ink handling and create durable, readable codes for packaging workflows.

Technical Parameters
M500C CO2 Laser dimensions and key specifications
Use these details as first-stage project references. Material testing and line layout review are still needed before final model selection.
| Marking content | Dates, batch numbers, serial numbers, logos, product codes, QR codes and Data Matrix codes for packaging traceability. |
|---|---|
| Typical substrates | Flexible packaging, PET, paper, cartons, labels, selected plastics and other CO2-responsive non-metal materials. |
| Production fit | Stationary or flying marking can be evaluated based on product speed, code size, trigger position and encoder setup. |
| Application areas | Food and beverage packaging, daily chemical packaging, household products, general packaging and industrial product identification. |
| Selection factors | Material, mark contrast, available marking area, line speed, installation space, extraction needs and safety protection requirements. |
| Integration support | Product detection, encoder signals, I/O and communication requirements should be checked against the production-line layout. |
CO2 marking quality depends on substrate and coating. Sample testing should be completed before confirming final setup.
Applications
Typical M500C CO2 Laser application scenarios
M500C is best reviewed for compact packaging-code workflows where non-contact marking and reduced consumables are useful.
Flexible packaging
Date codes, batch codes and product identifiers on compatible films and flexible packaging structures.
PET and bottles
Production codes and traceability marks on suitable PET packaging, labels or related packaging surfaces.
Cartons and paper
Non-contact coding on cartons, paper packaging and labels where material response provides readable contrast.
Daily chemical packaging
Lot codes and packaging identification for selected bottles, cartons, caps and household product packaging.
FAQ
M500C CO2 Laser selection questions
These questions help decide whether M500C, LC130, fiber laser or UV laser is the better starting point.
How is M500C different from LC130?
M500C is positioned as a compact CO2 coding option, while LC130 can be reviewed for broader CO2 packaging and material marking scenarios.
Can M500C mark metal?
Direct metal marking is usually better handled by fiber laser systems such as LF100 or M500F rather than CO2 laser.
Is fume extraction needed?
Some packaging materials can create smoke or odor during laser coding, so extraction and safety review should be included.
What information should I provide?
Send material, product speed, code size, photo or sample, installation space and target readability so the marking route can be evaluated.
Need to confirm whether M500C fits your packaging line?
Share material, line speed and code content. Lugsicher can help compare M500C with LC130, UV laser, fiber laser or labeling options.
