Laser Engraving on Aluminium.
Anodised aluminium is one of the most common metals used for laser marking purposes. Aluminium itself is a very widely used metal which is valued for its combination of being both lightweight and durable. This unique combination has made it the material of choice for aircraft and automotive products. The high electrical conductivity of aluminium has also made it an excellent material for long-distance power lines, satellite dishes, and in electrical components found in most household appliances and power systems

Aluminium in Industrial Applications.
The presence of the anodised layer makes the metal particularly well-suited for industrial engraving and marking purposes. A fiber laser or a CO2 laser can be effectively used with anodised aluminium. Depending on the thickness of the anodised layer and whether a dye was used to colour the layer, different laser treatments may be used to get the best results. Laser engraving anodised aluminium is the most commonly used process for creating permanent and legible marks on signs and promotional tags. Promotional items such as key chains, pens, bottle openers, and flasks can be marked with a company’s brand or logo.
Aluminium is a very malleable and ductile material which makes it a versatile material for many consumer goods. Modern smartphones, laptops, and tablets are made with increasingly large portions of aluminium. Being light and easy to shape, the metal is also becoming a common component in chairs, lamps, decorative panels, and other interior design elements. Aluminium is food-safe, non-toxic, and resistant to rust – after all, aluminium cans have been used to package carbonated drinks since the 1960’s.
The Benefits.
Aluminium is a great material to laser engrave because it is strong, lightweight and durable. Laser engraving aluminium creates a permanent, high-quality image or text that is resistant to fading and scratches. The finished product has a beautiful, polished finish that looks great on a variety of items, from signs and awards to name tags and keychains. Laser engraving is a great way to personalize or commemorate an event. It is also a popular way to create unique corporate gifts. Aluminium is a popular material for laser engraving because it is affordable and can be engraved with a wide variety of images and text.

Our advanced marking technology provides high-precision, durable, and tamper-resistant identification on a wide range of materials, including metals, plastics, ceramics, and composites—guaranteeing performance, safety, and reliability in even the most demanding environments.
With over 60 years of expertise, we provide some of the most advanced coding and marking systems available – offering high-performance marking, durable designs, and seamless integration into your production line. Our solutions come with user-friendly software, making implementation effortless.
For automotive coding and marking applications, we recommend the following high-performance printer solutions:
Proto Lase
The Proto Lase is our entry-level laser marking system for industrial identification applications, perfect for marking, etching, engraving and annealing all metals, coated metals, plastics and some organic materials.
This system is the ideal solution for low to mid-volume throughput and is an affordable alternative to more traditional methods of marking, such as dot peen, electrochemical etching or hand marking. Despite being entry-level and affordable we haven’t sacrificed on quality or efficiency; equipped with a 30 Watt or 60 Watt MOPA fiber laser with a MTBF of 100,000 marking hours and a 3-year comprehensive warranty, as standard.
Neutro Lase
The Neutro Lase offers maximum versatility for industries wishing to mark, etch and engrave larger parts. Designed to sit on a worktop within existing manufacturing cells and processes.
Due to its larger footprint and modular design, the Neutro Lase can offer a broad range of optional extras such as XY marking tables for increased throughput, large marking area lenses, big rotary attachments for circumference marking on large diameter parts and power sources from 30 watt up to 100 watt for maximum speed and depth.
With our 3-year comprehensive warranty, the Neutro Lase is the ideal solution for the efficient and reliable etching of heavy-duty parts in industrial environments.
Atom Lase
The Atom Lase offers our biggest enclosure mounted onto a portable base to offer maximum flexibility. It can be located within an existing manufacturing process or operate as a standalone marking and traceability station. With an auto door function, the Atom Lase is a turnkey solution; simply wheel into the desired location and start etching.
With such a large enclosure, the Atom Lase can be fitted with a wide range of options to further increase efficiencies and offer maximum throughput. Options include XY marking tables to facilitate the loading of multiple parts, large marking area lenses, big rotary attachments for circumference marking on large diameter parts and power sources from 30 Watt up to 100 Watt for maximum speed and depth.
As with all our range, maximum reliability and robustness is assured with our 3-year comprehensive warranty.
