Metal Engraving & Marking
Fiber and CO₂ laser systems provide permanent marking and deep engraving on metals — from delicate annealing marks to deep serial numbers that withstand extreme environments.
Laser Technology in Metal Engraving & Marking
Metal marking is one of the most diverse and demanding applications for laser technology. Different metals, different mark types, and different industry requirements all influence which laser system and which marking process is optimal. Fiber lasers mark bare metals directly — producing deep engravings, annealing marks, or surface etches without consumables. CO₂ lasers paired with marking agents like CerMark can also produce high-contrast permanent marks on metals. The choice depends on your material, your required mark type, and your production volume.
Key Applications
- Part serialization and traceability (barcodes, data matrix, QR codes)
- Deep engraving on tool steel, stainless steel, and hardened metals
- Annealing marks on surgical instruments and medical devices
- Decorative polishing and colour marking on stainless steel and titanium
- CerMark/TherMark marking on coated metals with CO₂ lasers
- Custom promotional products — flasks, pens, dog tags, keychains
The Synergy Advantage
Synergy carries both fiber and CO₂ laser systems, so we can match the right technology to your metal marking requirements. Our team has deep experience with marking parameters for different metals and different mark types — from medical-grade annealing to deep industrial engraving.
Recommended Equipment
The Synergy product lineup for metal engraving & marking applications.
Tykma Electrox offers the widest range of fiber marking configurations — enclosed benchtop systems, open-architecture platforms for integration, and high-powered units for deep engraving.
Epilog's fiber laser options handle direct metal marking, while their CO₂ systems work with CerMark for high-contrast marks on coated metals.
For applications that don't require real metal, Rowmark offers metallic-finish engravable plastics that look like brushed aluminum or brass — at a fraction of the cost.
