Cerakote® + laser

Coating and engraving under one roof

On a coated or anodised part, the laser removes the top layer locally. The bare metal underneath appears, giving a sharp contrast. That is how you combine your Cerakote® colour with your own logo or text.

The technology

Why a MOPA laser?

A MOPA fiber laser controls not only the power, but also the length and frequency of every laser pulse. That lets us tune the settings to each material, and you can see it in the result.

MOPAfiber

Powerful enough for deep engraving in steel, and fine enough for small text and thin lines.

    Colour on stainless steel & titanium

    By controlling the pulses, colours appear in the metal itself, without ink or paint.

  • 02

    Deep black on aluminium

    A crisp black contrast on anodised aluminium, such as receivers and scope parts.

  • 03

    Clean on plastic

    With less heat, for a clean marking on PMAGs and polymer without melting the material.

  • 04

    Deep engraving

    In several passes for an engraving you can feel, also in steel.

  • 05

    Fine detail

    Thin lines and small text stay sharp and readable.

  • 06

    Permanent

    No sticker or print: the marking is in the material and does not wear off.

Questions about laser engraving

Good to know

Is your question not listed? Feel free to ask it in your quote request.

Which materials can you engrave?

Almost all metals, such as steel, stainless steel, aluminium, titanium and brass. Also anodised aluminium, Cerakote® coatings and many plastics, including PMAGs. Not sure about your material? Ask us.

Do you apply serial numbers and markings to firearms?

Yes. We engrave serial numbers and markings, for example again after a Cerakote® treatment. Get in touch and we’ll discuss what your firearm needs.

What does an engraving on a PMAG look like?

The laser removes the pigment at the surface. On a black magazine that gives a light grey to sand-coloured marking with good contrast.

Can I have something engraved in colour?

On stainless steel and titanium a MOPA laser can create colours in the metal. On other materials the engraving is in one shade: light, dark or bare metal, depending on the surface.

Can I have a single item engraved?

Of course. We engrave single items, but also series, for example a set of magazines with numbers or names.

What does laser engraving cost?

That depends on the size, the material and the quantity. Request a quote with a photo and your design, and you’ll get a tailored price.
