What is the difference between the HEVES 7007, 7011, 7015 and 8102?

All 4 are designed to work on bare metals. 7007 is specifically for stainless Steel as it has a very strong bond. It is also suitable for all other types of bare metals, alloys etc. 7011 can also be used on the same materials but the bond is not as strong on SS. 7015 & 8102 are suitable for all types of metals including Stainless Steel, Aluminum, Aluminum and Alpaca alloys, Bronze, Brass, Chrome, Nickel, Titanium, Tungsten, etc but not gold.

What power is recommended for metal marking with 7007 & 7011?

We recommend 20W or more for metal marking.

What type of laser do you recommend for 7007, 7015 & 8102?

The HEVES 7015 and 8102 use any type of laser including Diode lasers, such as Yag / Nd, Fiber or the modern DLLV (Visible Light Laser Diode). 7015 needs less energy than the HEVES 7007, works 3 times faster on Stainless Steel. 8102 still needs a lot less power for its operation than the others. This product requires so little energy and is so fast that it can still work with laser machines of 5 Watts of Visible Light Laser Diodes
