Benefits of Laser Engraving from Architectural Signs Sydney

There are numerous process advantages of laser engraving over more traditional methods of engraving.

One major advantage is that the cutting tool is a non-contact, highly focused beam of light producing a mark, which results in less wear and tear on tooling. This reduces the risk of mould damage and deformation, and since the laser beam does not wear, it produces a highly accurate, repeatable engraving. This level of tool care and repeatability is more problematic for traditional methods such as stamping and mechanical engraving, where scissor-like pins are utilized to cut or scratch images into metal.

Other advantages include;

Beam angle to engrave hard to reach areas and convex/concave geometry enables more precision.
Marking speed up to 1500mm/sec - a 30% provides improvement in process time over EDM and pantograph engraving.
It's environmentally safe as the laser produces no chemical or toxic bi-products such as with acid etching.
There is usually no special tooling required, and the resulting mark is permanent, clean, and concise.
Lasers can engrave most metals and provide more versatility in material and product choices for our customers.
Careful control of laser settings and parameters allows for very intricate 3D patterns (Internet Source).

Architectural Signs' in-depth knowledge and experience of laser systems, mould configurations, and metal ablation gives us an advantage in precisely controlling critical dimensions and wall angles in deep engravings.
