Custom Laser Engraved Parts Manufacturer
Elimold’s laser engraving services have produced custom parts for engineering and artistic applications, hobbyists, and well-known American brands. CNC engraving is a subtractive manufacturing technology that produces excellent results for parts with tight tolerances and fine details. Using laser engraving to produce custom parts that require engraving, such as text or patterns, can provide our customers with unparalleled cost savings and improve material utilization throughout the production process. The processed parts are ready for the consumer market after the operation is completed. Each order goes through a mature pre-production process, including testing and setting processing parameters, cutting optimization, and material utilization optimization. We implement a comprehensive quality assurance program to ensure high-quality parts with high geometric accuracy, burr-free edges, and a factory-smooth surface finish. Our laser engraving service has unparalleled repeatability and fine feature tolerances of +/-.0001 inches, which is more stringent than many industrial standards.
Our team of highly trained laser operators not only have extensive backgrounds in laser processing technology, but also have extensive experience in the aerospace, medical technology, and gasket manufacturing industries. CNC laser engraving has disrupted some of our traditional manufacturing processes and significantly improved our ability to meet customer needs. Additional services we can provide include drawing assistance, material selection, packaging and a variety of processing capabilities.

What is Laser Engraving?
Laser engraving is a popular option that provides a permanent and legible marking on an object through etching, ablation, or deep laser engraving. It is similar to laser marking, but the resulting appearance differs due to the depth of laser penetration. Laser engraving vaporizes a small amount of material with pulses of high heat light, quickly creating a cavity that provides texture with a sharp and contrasting appearance.
Laser engraving can reach depths of 0.125 inches in material like graphite but is limited to 0.020 inches in metals, making it ideal for parts that may become worn but not for parts where safety is crucial.
Differences Between Laser Engraving and Laser Marking
The major difference between laser marking and laser engraving is the amount of material lost in the process and the depth of laser penetration. Unlike the quick, high heat laser engraving process, laser marking is a slow, low energy, low temperature process that discolors the surface of the object without leaving a notable texture.
Laser Marking is the most versatile of all marking methods. Laser Marking is a non-contact form of marking in which a CNC machine directs a laser beam as small as 0.002” in diameter to cut through a part to a desired depth. Laser Markings with depths greater than 0.002” are considered to be Laser Engraved, while Laser Markings with depths 0.002” or shallower are considered to be Laser Etched.
Laser Engraving is ideal for parts that require a deep mark (over 0.030” deep), but cannot withstand the high stress that results from other marking methods, such as Engraving or Impression Stamping, which put the part in direct contact with a cutter or a die.
