What is Laser Engraving?

Laser engraving (or laser etching) is a precise surface technology that interacts with different materials in unique ways to create high-quality designs and markings. Here’s how laser engraving works on various materials:

1. How Laser Engraving Works on Different Materials

Organic Materials (e.g., Wood)

• The laser burns the surface of the material, functioning like an extremely precise branding iron.
• 3D Effects: Achievable by varying the depth of the engraving, resulting in stunning, detailed designs.

Polymers (e.g., Acrylic)

• The laser vaporizes a portion of the surface, altering its appearance.
• 3D Effects: Possible but less pronounced compared to organic materials.

Metals

• A YAG laser is commonly used to alter the surface structure of metals.
• For coated metals:
  • Painted Brass: The laser removes the paint, exposing the metal beneath.
  • Anodized Aluminum: The laser changes the color of the anodized layer to create intricate designs.

Natural Materials (e.g., Granite, Stone)

• The laser causes tiny fractures in the surface, creating a textural contrast with the surrounding material.
• Engraving Type: Limited to 2D designs, which still deliver impressive results.
