How laser cutting, engraving, and marking works
Laser Cutting
The term laser stands for “Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation”. Light particles (called photons) are excited with current causing them to emit energy in the form of light. This light forms the laser beam. Laser cutting is a thermal separation process, which means that the heat from the laser beam cuts through the material.
Laser Marking
Lasers can be used to create a mark on some materials. When a laser’s beam comes into contact with an item, its light energy is converted into heat energy which creates a mark either by melting, ablation, carbon migration or chemical reaction. For metal, glass, and ceramic marking, we utilize a coating that is applied by airbrush to create a chemical reaction for a permanent laser mark. Glass is etched directly by shattering small areas of the glass.
