At metalone.eu, we understand that details are paramount in metal processing. Whether it's serial production labels, precise marking of tool steels, or engraving a logo onto aluminium components, our customers expect one hundred percent accuracy and durability.
That's why for industrial marking, we rely on fibre lasers. To deliver a top-tier result promptly, we utilise machines assembled from the finest components available on the market. What exactly constitutes a professional engraving laser, and why is it so precise? Let's take a look under the hood of our technologies.
Components that Guarantee Quality
Micrometre precision is no accident. It is the result of the perfect interplay of several key components.
Machine Component | Function | Benefit for Your Product |
Laser Source | Generates the laser beam within the optical fibre. | Ensures stable power output, making every single engraved piece in a series absolutely identical. |
Galvanometric Head | A mirror system that rapidly directs the beam. | Allows us to engrave at immense speeds, reducing production time and saving your costs. |
F-Theta Lens | Focuses the beam onto the working surface. | Guarantees that the engraving is equally sharp in the centre of the component and at its very edge. |
Work Table (T-slot) | A robust clamping base for the material. | Eliminates any vibrations, ensuring that even the smallest texts and codes are perfectly legible. |
A Detailed Look at Our Technology
The Heart of the Machine: The Laser Generator
An industrial fibre laser does not require glass tubes or mirrors prone to breakage. The beam is generated directly within an optical fibre doped with rare-earth elements. At Metalone, we exclusively use premium sources with a long service life. For you, this translates into certainty – our machines are always ready for operation and can handle high-volume orders without any quality degradation.
The Hands of the Machine: The Extremely Fast Galvo
Conventional CNC machines or CO2 lasers must move their entire heavy head, which slows them down. Our fibre laser only moves a small system of mirrors (the so-called Galvo scanner) within its head. The beam thus "flies" across the metal at speeds of thousands of millimetres per second. The result is a sharp, clean, and exceptionally fast cut.
The Brain of the Machine: Precision Software
Every CAD design, vector-format logo, or list of serial numbers is processed using professional control software. This enables us to precisely adjust the laser's power, frequency, and speed for specific metal types – engraving stainless steel differs from anodised aluminium, and both differ from brass.
