Materials such as aluminum, hard metals, or alloys such as steel, thanks to laser machines, can be marked easily, quickly and durably. Marking applications range from item personalization to identification for traceability of parts and products.
Laser marking is a non-contact marking process with no consumables and no tool deterioration, ensuring lower marking costs. In cases such as steel alloys, they can even produce a laser marking that resists corrosion without damaging the steel surface through so-called annealing marking.
In today’s production lines, we encounter a large number of components and parts over which the companies themselves maintain exhaustive control.
Mainly, this kind of coding technologies have a higher importance in sectors where they make great use of metals.
Some industries that require this type of marking processes to develop their activity correctly are:
All these industries make use of marking on their parts by applying different types of technologies. Here are some examples.
Metal plate engraving is a process used in a wide variety of applications and industries. Metal plates offer great advantages, elegance, long lasting products, thanks to the fact that metal is very resistant and easy to clean.
In addition, marking on metal plates has a great utility: to obtain very precise results.
Types of plates on which you can engrave:

The main advantage of laser engraving is that the cycle times are very short, and it is a very quiet technique during the marking process. When installing and purchasing laser equipment, you should consider studying and applying safety measures according to EU safety regulations.

The main attribute of micro-percussion is its low cost and its effectiveness in processes that require painting once the marking is done. Marking by micro-percussion marking is characterized by micro pressure dots on flat surfaces.
Micro-percussion marking products, such as portable, column and integrable marking machines, are some of the examples that we offer at SIC Marking.
Scratch engravings
The scratch engraving is similar to the technique mentioned in the previous point, but they differ because the latter makes the marking with a continuous line where the punch compresses and scratches the material thanks to the use and pressure of compressed air.
Scratch marking machines such as the I63S – I124S can be a good option if you want to make a marking of this type.
All Sivart/SIC Marking markers come with installation and set-up service, plus training for your employees.
Other applications
At Sivart/SIC Marking we will help you choose the most appropriate traceability and identification solution to mark your metal parts. We have different technologies for metal marking, depending on, obviously, its industrial use: laser engraving or micro-percussion marking.
There are many applications and types of laser marking in the metallurgical sector: for product identification, internal traceability, serial numbers, logos and/or texts, a 2D code (Datamatrix or QR), a bar code, etc.
In the field of laser marking in the metallurgical sector, Sivart/SIC Marking has a large number of references and has excelled, for example, in the marking of hot parts, electronic parts, medical instruments, etc. Whatever metal engraving machine you are looking for, contact us here without obligation.
