Laser marking applications: Discovering the possibilities

Within mechanical engineering there are many applications which require permanent and durable markings. Laser technology is the perfect tool to achieve this, allowing a number of different materials to be marked. A laser mark is not only permanent, it is also heat, abrasion and acid resistant, meaning that important information remains intact regardless of the environmental factors it is exposed to.

Laser engraving is also an important process which can be used to replicate text and graphics on different materials. Laser machines provide a quicker and more efficient method of material processing compared to mechanical engraving. A laser machine also has the advantage of being more accurate than mechanical engravers, with lower maintenance and no tooling costs.
