What Is A Laser Engraving?
Laser engraving technology represents the pinnacle of precision marking methods, harnessing high-energy lasers to achieve permanent, highly detailed markings. From text, intricate symbols to corporate logos and designs, our engraving capabilities cover a broad spectrum of applications.
How Laser Engraving works.
Laser engraving is essentially removing material in a controlled manor. It is perfect for branding and customising a large number of materials.
A sophisticated process wherein materials are vaporised into fumes to produce enduring, deep-seated marks. Acting akin to a precision chisel, the laser beam meticulously removes layers from the material’s surface, resulting in intricate engravings. Through targeted application of substantial energy, localised areas are subjected to intense heat, facilitating vaporisation.
