Laser Engraving

What is Laser Engraving?

A permanent marking process that uses a focused laser to mark branding, serial numbers, or barcodes directly into a part's surface, with no ink or chemicals involved.

How it works

A laser beam locally heats and alters the surface of the material, either ablating a thin layer or changing its color, leaving a permanent mark with no physical contact and no consumables beyond the laser itself.

Benefits

• Permanent and abrasion-resistant, won't wear off or peel like printed ink
• No ink, solvents, or consumables to manage
• Precise enough for small, dense text like serial numbers and data matrix codes

Applications

Traceability marking such as serial numbers, lot codes, and barcodes on medical and industrial parts, and permanent branding where a printed label isn't durable enough.
