Laser Marking Technology for Every Material – The Future of Precision Labelling

Synopsis

Laser marking has transformed how products are labelled, tracked, and customised across industries. Dynotech, in collaboration with TYKMA Electrox, delivers top-tier laser marking solutions in India, supporting a variety of materials from metals and plastics to wood and glass. Whether you’re upgrading from a dated system or exploring laser marking for the first time, our robust fibre, CO2, and UV laser systems offer unmatched clarity, efficiency, and durability. In this blog, we’ll explore the various types of laser marking technologies, their applications, and how Dynotech ensures long-lasting results with cutting-edge precision.

Understanding Laser Marking

Laser marking is a non-contact method that uses a focused beam of light to permanently engrave or mark the surface of a material

This process ensures high durability, fine detailing, and resistance to wear, making it ideal for product identification, traceability, and branding. The method offers a cleaner, more eco-friendly alternative to traditional printing or etching, as it requires no inks or chemicals.

Types of Laser Marking Technologies

Dynotech provides a wide selection of marking systems tailored to different materials and applications.

  • Fibre Laser Marking
    Ideal for metals such as stainless steel, aluminium, brass, and titanium. Fibre lasers offer high-speed, high-contrast engraving with minimal maintenance and long service life.
    • CO₂ Laser Marking
      Best suited for organic materials like wood, leather, paper, and certain plastics. CO₂ lasers provide precise results with smooth edges and minimal thermal damage.
    • UV Laser Marking
      UV lasers are ideal for marking sensitive materials like plastics and glass without causing surface burns or deformation. The shorter wavelength allows micro-level precision, even on transparent materials.

Industry Applications of Laser Marking

Laser marking solutions are critical in sectors where traceability, compliance, and branding are paramount.

    • Automotive – VIN numbers, logos, and part identification.
    • Medical – Surgical instruments and implant markings for sterilisation and identification.
    • Consumer Electronics – Serial numbers, branding, and barcodes on cases and components.
    • Aerospace – Durable part markings that resist abrasion and heat.
    • Packaging – Batch codes, expiration dates, and QR codes for tracking and anti-counterfeiting.
    These applications showcase the versatility of laser marking across industries with varying regulatory and aesthetic requirements.

FAQs

Laser marking discolours the surface without cutting into the material, whereas engraving removes a portion of the surface. Marking is often used for labelling or identification, while engraving is typically deeper and used for logos or permanent text.

We offer marking systems for metals (fibre laser), wood and organics (CO₂ laser), and plastics or glass (UV laser). Each system is selected based on the material’s absorption characteristics and the level of detail required.

Yes. Laser markings are resistant to wear, heat, and chemicals, making them ideal for industrial-grade applications where permanence is key.

Absolutely. Many businesses use laser marking for logos, QR codes, and brand elements. The high precision allows crisp, detailed designs even at small scales.

Our team will evaluate your material type, production volume, and marking goals to recommend the most suitable system—whether that’s fibre, CO₂, or UV laser.
