Laser Engraving Frequently Asked Questions

Laser engraving machines are optimised to have a higher engraving quality. A fine, specific laser point, allows for specific, longer-lasting cuts.

Laser engraving takes substantially less time to produce a clear and vivid image than engraving by hand. In addition, laser engraving will be more consistent, making it the best choice for engraving the same design (logo, text, picture) onto multiple objects.
