The Case Processing Laboratory has recently acquired a Laser Marking system with a DURIP Award from the USAF. This system can mark or engrave metal, plastic, glass, or semiconductor materials. An extensive set of parameters can create resolutions approaching 7000dpi or mark at speed of up to 5 meters a second for projects involving lower precision. The primary application is engraving barcodes on molds and dies, but many other applications are possible.
Have an idea for a unique or intricate engraving job that would be difficult or impossible with traditional engraving techniques? Contact the lab and we will work with you to develop a solution.
