Laser engraving or laser etching is the process using lasers to engrave on any object. There are many objects today which we see in our day to day life which are engraved with some text or numbers on it such as – rings, nut bolts, drinking glasses etc. The concept of laser engraving makes any company type any text on the object for various purposes such as: • To leave his company name on the objects • Mark it with serial number or batch number to identify it at a later stage • Mark it with some standards so that it proves that the object has been QA passed This technique does not involve the use of inks or tool bits which have to be replaced on time to time basis. This advantage of laser etching makes it more popular and common as it helps in reducing cost and effort. Laser engraving can be used on all type of materials such as – Plastics, Metals, coated metals, stones, jewelry and metals. This process is widely used these days by all the manufacturing companies before they dispatch their products for selling. There are many advantages of this technique like: • It’s very cost effective. • This technique does not have any waste product, which makes it environment friendly. • It has high resolution and readability. • Can be used on all types of materials • High speed process. This technique is very flexible i.e. we can print any type of logo, bar code, 2D matrix codes, icon symbol etc. which would be various sizes and shapes. A laser is used as it can remove material very efficiently because the laser beam is designed to deliver energy to the surface in a manner which converts a high percentage of the light energy into heat. However, because of this efficiency, the equipment used in laser engraving may heat up rather quickly. Elaborate cooling systems are required for the laser. Alternatively, the laser beam may be pulsed to decrease the amount of excessive heating. This technique has been simplified in the recent times now people do not have put a lot of effort in engraving on any type of material and it is a safe method also. There are many companies who provide these services to us. They have all the machines and people do to this task in a better way.
