What is Laser Marking and Engraving?

Laser marking or engraving is very much as it sounds. A PC controlled laser beam is used to either discolor the surface of a component or to actually engrave it by vaporizing the material. The laser's position can be very accurately controlled; this allows a variety of effects to be achieved including text, logos, and barcodes, just to name a few.

Processing can be done on a wide variety of materials. Whether you are a start-up company or a large established corporation we are confident we have the equipment and expertise to meet your needs.

Examples of Use:

Marking of various substrates with barcodes, serial numbers and logos.
Marking of CE marks on safety and electrical equipment.
Marking batch numbers and serial numbers for ISO 9000 compliance.
Marking of wiring diagrams and symbols directly onto components.
Very precise engraving on fragile components.
Medical instruments can be marked without creating a rough surface or leaving behind any inks or chemicals, which could have health implications.
Logos can be applied to promotional items.
