Laser Logo Definition
Laser logo is a kind of logo made by using laser technology, which creates high-precision and high-definition patterns by engraving and colouring the surface of different materials with high-energy laser beams.
Laser logos can be etched on a variety of materials such as metal, wood, glass, etc. They have a unique visual effect and show the innovation and technology of the brand.
Features of Laser Logo
High precision and detail capability
The precise control of laser technology allows for extremely fine lines and shapes to be etched.
Wide range of applications
Electronics, automotive, fashion, beauty and many other industries use laser etching to create brand logos and other attribute parameters to meet the needs of different brands and companies.
Personalisation and customisation
We can create unique logos according to customers’ needs and design concepts to increase the uniqueness and personalised image of the brand.
Durable
Laser etched logos are not prone to colour fading and will retain their original visual effect over a long period of time.
The process of laser logo etching
Designing the logo pattern, selecting the right laser marker, adjusting the laser parameters, sample testing and finally mass production.
The designer needs to convert the logo pattern into vector graphics format (SVG) and adjust the size and proportion of the pattern according to the characteristics of the material for precise marking operation.
What are the advantages of laser logo etching over traditional printing?
Laser etching offers a more advanced, durable and environmentally friendly solution in modern brand identity.
- High precision and durability: laser etching technology can etch high-precision marks on the surface of the material, which are not easy to fade or wear, and can be maintained for a long time.
- non-contact processing: laser processing does not need to contact the surface of the material to complete the etching treatment, to avoid damage to the material, but also reduces the mechanical stress during processing.
- Wide material adaptability: laser etching can be processed on metal, plastic, wood, glass and other materials.
- Environmental protection and safety: laser etching does not use traditional inks and solvents, reducing chemical pollution, and the operation of laser equipment is safer.
- High efficiency and low cost: laser etching processing does not require additional consumables, long service life, can be used for a long time, reducing costs.
- Design flexibility: support for complex patterns, text and graphics such as two-dimensional codes, which can be designed and modified through the software to adapt to the needs of personalisation and customisation.
What are the suitable materials for laser etching?
A variety of materials are suitable for laser etching logos, these materials include but are not limited to:
- Metal materials: stainless steel, aluminium alloy, etc., suitable for durability and high quality products.
- Plastic materials: polyethylene, polypropylene, etc., suitable for some lightweight products and scenarios that require mass production.
- Glass materials: ordinary glass, toughened glass, etc. Glass materials have high transparency and are suitable for products that require light transmittance and high texture.
- Ceramic materials: ceramic tiles, ceramic ware, etc. Ceramic materials have high hardness and abrasion resistance and are suitable for products requiring durability and special texture.
- Wood: oak, plywood, density board, etc. The laser marking machine can etch markings such as text, patterns, and trademarks on the surface of wood.
- Stone: marble, granite, etc., laser marking machine can be fine marking and pattern engraving on the stone surface.
- Leather: leather, synthetic leather, etc., can make fine patterns and text on the surface of leather.
- Paper: cardboard, wrapping paper, etc., which can be marked on paper.
Plexiglass, plastic, dichroic board, glass, bamboo wood, foam, fabric, leather, rubber sheet, stone, artificial stone, PVC board, wood products, metal plate, crystal, corian, paper, aluminium oxide, resin, sprayed metal**, etc., which can be used to make logo patterns by laser etching or colouring.
What are the file formats supported by the laser etching machine?
Laser etching machines support a variety of file formats, including:
- Vector format: AI, EPS, SVG, etc. for lines and text.
- Bitmap format: JPG, PNG, BMP, etc., suitable for grey scale images.
- Specialised formats: – PLT, DST, etc. Some laser devices require specific formats.
- CAD formats: DXF, DWG, etc., for complex graphics.
Choosing the appropriate file format can improve the accuracy and efficiency of laser etching. Before use, make sure the image is clear and correctly sized.
