Whether it's marking or engraving, the laser is the perfect tool for marking nearly all materials.
The processing is done without mechanical stress. The result is permanent and long-lasting.
Logos, characters, images, consecutive serial numbers, scales, barcodes, QR codes, and Data Matrix codes can be placed on your product using this method.
With fine line widths starting from approximately 15µm, we can handle even high optical demand projects in the design of luxury goods such as mechanical watches or writing instruments.
At the same time, the machine park allows for larger, even wrap-around scale markings or seamless processing of front panels.
We process components, depending on the machine, with dimensions of up to 870 x 475 x 375 (x/y/z in mm) and a maximum weight of 30kg.
For the rotational processing of cylindrical parts, various motorized rotary axes are available.
Laser Marking

Laser-marking

The laser beam can create a permanent marking in various ways.
For iron-containing metals such as steel and stainless steel, as well as titanium, a brief energy input into the product's surface is sufficient to cause a change in the microstructure, resulting in a locally visible discoloration.
Exactly, this process is referred to as annealing marking because the laser heat creates an oxide layer in annealing colors (e.g., black, yellow, red, or green).
Similarly, a variety of plastics also respond well to localized heating. In these cases, there is a local color change due to the targeted destruction of partial pigments.
Hard and thick coatings can also be removed to create a text or marking. Chrome or powder coatings are vaporized from the surface of the component using the laser. The resulting contrast between the surface and the material’s base color is clear and aesthetically pleasing. The same applies to anodized aluminum, where the ultra-thin, approximately 5…25µm anodized layer is triggered.
Various types of ceramics, glass, wood, and leather can also be engraved or marked using the laser.
In case of uncertainty, you can have your material tested for laser processing capability at our facility.
Laser-engraving

Indeed, laser engraving is a special type of laser marking. It involves using a focused laser beam to remove material from the surface of a workpiece, creating a permanent and precise engraving. This process is commonly used for adding logos, text, designs, or other decorative elements to various materials, providing a high-quality and aesthetically appealing finish. Laser engraving is widely utilized in industries like manufacturing, jewelry, arts and crafts, and personalization services.
In laser engraving, depth structures are precisely vaporized from the material layer by layer, creating intricate and detailed engravings. The laser beam is controlled to remove material at different depths, allowing for the creation of complex and three-dimensional designs or patterns on the surface of the workpiece. This process is widely used for creating decorative and functional elements on various materials, including metals, plastics, wood, and more.
Indeed, laser engraving is becoming increasingly popular due to its advantages over traditional mechanical methods. One of the key benefits is the elimination of expensive wear tools, as the laser beam directly removes material from the workpiece. This leads to cost savings and greater efficiency, making laser engraving a competitive alternative to mechanical machining processes. Additionally, laser engraving offers precise and intricate detailing, versatility for various materials, and the ability to automate and replicate designs easily, making it a preferred choice in many industries.
Depending on the application and material type, a depth of up to several tenths of a millimeter can be achieved in laser engraving. The depth of the engraving can be adjusted to meet specific requirements, allowing for various levels of depth and intricacy in the engraved designs or markings. This versatility makes laser engraving suitable for a wide range of applications, from delicate surface engravings to deep and durable markings on different materials.
Corner radii as small as 100µm can be achieved in laser engraving. This level of precision allows for sharp and detailed corners in the engraved designs, making it ideal for applications that require intricate and accurate markings or patterns.
