MaterialStainless Steel, polymer coated

These stainless steel bracelets, have a black finish coating that creates the high level contrast when the laser marking process is used to generate the QR code and human readable data. The coating is removed by the laser marking process revealing the stainless steel below.

OneLife iD is an innovative, interactive, personal ID, which offers its users the opportunity to share different elements of their personal identity in a variety of situations and events. Customers create their own personal iD webpage on the OneLife iD website. The system enables users to create, update and adapt their own iD webpage and record key emergency and medical details, contact details, photos and links to social media content.

In this case, the bracelet is available as an emergency tag, providing medical details that can be used by way of treatment, as required. A pin number on the reverse side protects the owner’s information.

The ID information is accessed by using a smartphone to scan the ID products which all include a personal laser engraved QR code. The products include ID bands, dog tags, key fobs and jewellery and can be worn by the customer or attached to anything important including valuables, kids and pets. All products are produced using the laser marking process.

laser marking anodised aluminium

Laser marking Anodised Aluminium – Electrical symbols

Anodising has become a dominant form of finishing for aluminium. This is largely due to its cost effectiveness, availability and suitability, across a whole host of applications and industrial sectors. Laser marking anodised aluminium, has also become an accepted process across these industrial sectors.

Anodising is an electrolytic passivation process. It changes the microscopic texture of the aluminium by modifying the crystal structure near the surface. The passivation thickness will be…

product branding by laser marking anodised aluminium

Product branding by laser marking anodised Aluminium

A good example of product branding by laser marking is anodised aluminium. It is used in high end audio accessories in the form of cable tidies.  The aluminium is highly polished, prior to anodising, in order to achieve the high gloss finish on the part.

The laser process, delivers small pulses of energy to the component surface. These pulses have enough energy to vaporise the surface of the aluminium where the anodised coating occurs. This exposes the base material, aluminium,…
