With the help of an intensive laser beam, objects can be labelled or marked. In contrast to laser printing, where a weak laser beam controls only the pigment application on the printed material, laser marking changes the inscribed material itself.<\/p>\n
The process and the associated energy input depend on the material. Laser markings are water and smudge-proof and very durable. They can be generated quickly, automatically and individually, which is why the process is often used for numbering prototypes<\/a>.<\/p>\n It is also possible to apply very small machine-readable markings directly to objects.<\/p>\n<\/div>
