Laser technology enables us to manipulate surface textures, increasing durability, reducing friction, and enhancing adhesion. This cutting-edge approach ensures that materials meet the stringent demands of modern industries.
Laser etching technology works by using a concentrated laser beam to remove material from a surface, creating precise and detailed designs. The process begins with a digital design that guides the laser. The laser beam, directed by mirrors and lenses, focuses intense energy on a small area of the material. This energy heats and vaporises the material, leaving a permanent mark. The laser moves along the specified path, controlled by computer software, to achieve the desired pattern.
How does it work
Laser etching is used on various materials like metal, glass, wood, and plastic, providing high accuracy and detailed customisation for industrial and artistic applications.
- Extremely Durable
- High Processing Efficiency
- Environmentally Friendly
Key Stats
- Artwork up to 1.6m wide
- Etches at 2200mph
