Aluminium Laser Etching Services

What is Laser Etching?

Laser etching is a process that uses specialist, high precision laser technology to mark a wide range of materials, including almost any metal, by melting the surface of the material itself. The laser etching machine delivers a high-intensity beam of heat and energy focused on a small area to create an indelible raised mark on the material in a specific numerical pattern, code or design.

Laser etching can mark material in black, white and shades of grey. One of the most valuable characteristics of etching is that it removes the danger of contamination through the use of inks and solvents.  Laser etching is also virtually impossible to duplicate therefore removing the threat of counterfeit products and copies.

With an increased demand across a variety of industry sectors from medical, aerospace and food & beverage, laser etching is an invaluable process. At Edmo, we are now able to offer this service directly to our customers in-house for the first time. With the investment of our new laser etching machine, we can implement a specialist solution for our customers and benefit from complete control and project management as well as a faster turnaround time.
