Engraving is the process of incising designs, patterns, or text into a hard surface—typically metal—with high accuracy. Engraved parts can be widely used for both functional and decorative purposes. With the developing skill of precision machining, engraving can be done with higher efficiency and precision by CNC machining.
One of the most significant advantages of precision engraving is processing with consistent, highly detailed results. The control of the engraving tool allows for precise control over depth and path, ensuring every part is finished with same high quality of details. Capable of making complex design and programmed processing, the engraving can be done with higher efficiency and lower costs, meeting the needs of mass production. Based on different characteristic of metal parts, CNC engraving can work on a wide range of materials with different requirement, including aluminum, stainless steel, brass, titanium, hardened alloys, etc.
Engraved metal parts are used in a wide variety of applications, such as manufacturing, aerospace, consumer electronics, etc. For most of the applications, markings are important for metal parts, as they can provide and preserve information of a part, so that the part can be identified and recall corresponding information through the engraved marks. In automotive, engraving are needed to apply logos, VIN numbers, and batch codes to engine components, frames, and interior trims; In aerospace, components often require engraved identification marks that can withstand extreme temperatures, abrasion, and corrosion; In major 3C electronics, engraving is mostly used on the production of PCB (Printed Circuit Board) for providing identification and debugging data.
Aside from functional purpose, precision engraving can also make high quality design of decorative components like product casings; commemorative goods and other customize items. Precision engraving ensures a refined, durable finish that highlights intricate patterns or customized designs, thus providing improving visual impression of metal parts.
