The engraver on metals, plastics or crystals was never so fast, easy and personalized. This thanks to laser engraving technology.
The marking or engraving of metals and other materials without even touching them is a great advantage for different industries. Being able to record from Gold, platinum, silver, brass, stainless steel, copper, titanium, aluminum, plastics, fabrics, wood, glass, leather, among other materials.
Today we explain 5 remarkable points of laser engraving that make it a method to fix a hard surface (such as metal, glass, stone, wood, or plastic engraving) with multiple advantages.
As we know, steel stamps engraving is one of the techniques that are required by various types of companies that want to venture into global markets, as well as having an improvement in production.
We also know that many times you can have some doubts about what is being done or when implementing something new, however as you may have read we are talking about a technique that has a high level of efficiency.
Laser Engraving - Basic Aspects:
The use of marking lasers is economical when it comes to marking accurately and lasting from the smallest components to the largest pieces. The benefits of marking and engraving laser parts are multiple. The most significant are:
• Total accuracy of laser marking, with the ability to access the most difficult areas in any type of parts.
• The flexibility of the marking and laser engraving, being able to mark all the metals as well as a great diversity of plastics.
• High marking speed, since the targeted laser beam does not have to overcome any mechanical resistance.
• No mechanical wear, since the energy used does not have direct contact with the laser components.
5 Remarkable points of laser engraving:
1. Accuracy: laser engraving allows producing images with complex, clear and sharp details.
2. Simultaneity: this technique allows us to simultaneously record several identical images.
3. Speed: in the laser engraving method laser devices work at a very high speed, making the engraving process very efficient and productive.
4. Profitability: laser engraving machines, despite having a higher price than manual engraving machines, are damaged less frequently and their duration is usually longer, which makes them very profitable.
5. Consistency: the variability between pieces that are recorded at the same time is reduced since multiple identical images can be produced.
Some of the applications of laser engraving are the personalization of awards and trophies, traffolyte engraving, merchandising, identification of components with bar codes and serial numbers, stamp manufacturing, packaging design, marking and engraving of jewelry and costume jewelry, signage and advertising or engravings for smartphones, laptops, pen drives, etc.
