FlexLink to Introduce New Laser Marker with Double Sided Marking
March 1, 2016 | FlexLinkEstimated reading time: 1 minute
The latest advancement in PCB board handling by FlexLink will be introduced at the IPC APEX electronic exhibition in Las Vegas (US) on March 15. The GENIUS 1-LV is a laser marking module with inverter that is compact in size, and equipped with the world’s first 3 axis control - CO2 laser marker.
The new GENIUS 1-LV module combines the established 1-LX laser marker and the 1-IN inverter into one compact package. Its double sided marking provides permanent identification on PCBs for tracking or recognition and can mark on a variety of non-metallic surfaces. The footprint is small, and the entire module fits inside 900 x 1,600 x 1,800 mm (LxWxH).
“By integrating Keyence’s ML-Z series CO2 laser head and barrel style camera, the 1-LV provides one of the most efficient systems on the market today.” Says Dick Andersson, Product Manager Electronics at FlexLink.
“The new marker with inverter gives manufacturers the ability to reach higher production rates by allowing two operations in one, making better use of their investment. Thanks to our efficient supply chain and global footprint, customers benefit from short delivery times, excellent after sales services and fast, accurate response to their requests.” Dick Andersson concludes.
From PCB handling modules to turnkey solutions – FlexLink delivers automated production flow solutions that increase total efficiency. To find out more information about the new Genius 1-LV, please visit booth# 3114 at the IPC APEX show or contact us directly.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
