Industrial laser engraving in Tijuana and permanent marking

Part numbers, serials, lot codes, logos and 2D codes marked permanently without altering the part's dimension.

Traceability that does not rub off

In regulated industries, an unidentified part is a part that cannot be traced. Laser engraving solves that without adding material or touching the tolerance: it marks metal or plastic permanently, survives handling, cleaning and solvents, and leaves codes a shop-floor scanner reads without trouble.

Identification and traceability

We mark part number, revision, serial, lot and date directly on the part. When the requirement comes from your end customer, we respect the position, font size and contrast the specification demands.

QR and Data Matrix codes

We engrave 2D codes and verify the scanner reads them on the actual surface under your plant's lighting, not just on a test sheet. It works on steel, stainless, anodized aluminum and engineering plastics.

Logos, plates and panels

We engrave logos, equipment identification plates, scales, control panels and boards with text and symbols, with a uniform finish legible at operating distance.

Which materials take a mark well

Not every material reacts the same way. Stainless and carbon steel give a clean dark contrast; anodized aluminum marks white by burning off the oxide layer, with excellent legibility; bare aluminum needs more power and comes out gray. Engineering plastics like Delrin and PEEK mark well, but a sample is worth running because contrast shifts with the base color. If the part will be washed with solvents or run through a coating process afterwards, tell us up front: the correct order is usually to engrave after finishing, not before.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does engraving affect the part's strength?

In practice, no: the laser marks the surface without removing meaningful material. Even so, we avoid marking in stress-concentration zones and suggest a safe location if the print does not specify one.

Can you engrave parts you did not machine?

Yes. We accept finished parts for marking, including anodized or painted ones.
