You probably need a metal engraving machine. The metal engraving machine is an invention that is used in various industries and increases the speed of work. In this article, we will introduce you to the structure and features of the metal engraving machine and talk about the metal laser engraving machine. But first, we will introduce you to two metal laser engraving products.
Selling laser engraving machine on metal
As you know, the sale of devices that use laser technology requires a license. Arian Sanat Hak has this license and specializes in the sale of metal laser engraving machines. Contact our technical experts for advice.
The two products, MFZ20B and KX200, are laser engraving machines that can engrave on metal. These two machine models have slight differences. Technical specifications and detailed information about each of these two machines are listed on their dedicated pages.
Types of metal engraving machines
Metal engraving machines can be classified in two ways. One is in terms of the method of providing the motive power of the engraving tool and the other is in terms of the engraving technique of the machine. In terms of providing the motive power, it should be said that old machines used wind power to provide the necessary pressure. The wind is produced by a compressor and is transferred to the engraving tool through a hose. This type of machine is called a wind engraving machine. However, more modern machines use electric motors to provide the motive power.
Therefore, you should choose one type according to the type of engraving you want. It is strongly recommended that you consult with our experts about the power and quality of engraving of these two types before choosing a machine.
In general, metal engraving machines are one of the most widely used machines in the parts manufacturing industry. Different types of these machines have different strengths and weaknesses, and each is useful for a specific activity.
In terms of engraving technique, the devices are divided into four categories.
- Impact engraving machine
- Scribe or scratch engraving machine
- Laser engraving on metal
- Three-axis milling with CNC metals
Structure of metal engraving machine
The main part of a metal engraving machine is an engraving unit that, depending on the shape and material of the target, can be mounted on various bases, such as desktop or standing. It can even be offered as a handheld engraving machine, which is called a portable engraving machine.
Various accessories can also be added to the machine. For example, one of the available accessories is a rotary motor that is added to the machine for engraving on cylindrical parts.
Engraving machine speed
Depending on the hardness of the metal piece, the engraving speed will be low or high. For example, engraving on steel has a lower speed than engraving on copper in all four methods. Proper assessment of the customer’s needs in selecting an engraving machine can play an important role in the efficiency of that machine.
On the other hand, the engraving technique also plays a role in the speed of engraving. For example, an impact engraving machine that works by striking the metal has a slower speed than a laser machine. Therefore, the production work may take more hours.

Applications of metal engraving machine
Metal engraving machines have different uses depending on the material, dimensions, and physical structure. For example, to engrave names inside a gold ring, a delicate machine that uses laser technology should be used. To engrave on metal fittings, a flange engraving machine should be used. The following can be listed as applications of this machine:
Engraving logos, logos and information on metal parts, producing metal plates, modeling on wooden, plastic and soft metal parts, producing and making molds. Producing metal labels for electrical panels are other uses of this machine.
General Because the engraving process of laser machines is similar to printing a design, this machine is also called a laser printing machine on metal. In the rest of the article, we will talk more about laser engraving and laser engraving machines.
Laser engraving machine
Before we talk about the laser engraving machine for metals, you should know that laser technology is not very old. In fact, the first laser machine was registered in 1950 by an American engineer and physicist. Theodore Maiman, the inventor of the laser, was born in 1926 and died in 1967. The Hercules laser is the most powerful laser in the world and is located at the University of Michigan in the United States. The power of the laser is very high and is used in various industries.
Using laser in engraving is a very interesting idea. The strength of the metal laser engraving machine is its high precision and speed. Low engraving noise is another important point of this product.
Laser printing on metal
Laser radiation changes the color of the metal surface by creating heat in a very small spot at a very high speed. It is also possible to cut sheet metal with the help of a powerful laser. Therefore, the power of the laser beam is determined depending on the application and the desired material.
The surface difference created in laser printing can be created with very small depth and high precision. Also, in required conditions, it is possible to create more corrosion or deeper engraving by applying a stronger laser to the surface. The metal laser engraving machine must be provided to the customer with a license from the Atomic Energy Organization.
Due to its high accuracy, high speed, and low noise pollution, metal laser engraving machines are very popular.
Function of laser engraving machine on metal
As you know, a photon is a particle of light. A laser is formed in such a way that when a photon is radiated to an excited particle, another photon is released. These two photons are at the same frequency. As this process continues, the number of photons increases, which can create a beam of photons. As mentioned earlier, using a laser beam with greater power allows for laser engraving of metals. A laser engraving machine for metals requires minimal maintenance and repairs. A laser engraving machine does not cause any mechanical damage to the product being produced and ensures that the laser engraving has a long life. The only thing to note for device owners is that the lens of the device must always be clean.
Metal laser engraving machine from the past to the present
The cutting process was one of the first processes discovered to use a laser beam. Since its discovery in the 1960s, laser cutting has become a very common process in many sectors of industry. However, in recent years, home and office laser cutting machines have become available and affordable. Laser cutting is increasingly being adopted by industrial manufacturers, small businesses, and product designers.
Laser numbering machine
Using a laser numbering machine for industrial parts is not very useful. The reason for this is that the number will not remain legible over time. For example, the chassis number or cylinder number of a car must maintain its legibility after years of contact with dirt, oil, and various events. Therefore, using this device is possible if it can create a suitable depth with high power. Using a laser numbering machine with low power is suitable for engraving on decorative items.
Laser marking machine price
In general, the sale of laser engraving machines of any power requires a license from the Atomic Energy Organization. On the other hand, sanctions have slowed down the import of supplies and equipment required for laser engraving machines. Therefore, the price of this product in the market is diverse. Also, the existence of various Chinese brands has deprived dear customers of the confidence of a comfortable and safe choice. We suggest that you do a lot of research before buying a laser engraving machine. If necessary, you can contact our consultants.
Laser engraving of names on metal
Engraving names on metal is a tradition that has continued from the past to the present. This work is usually done on precious and ornamental objects. In the past, engraving names was done by master craftsmen. Today, laser technology has increased the speed and quality of engraving; so that the use of lasers to engrave names on ornaments such as rings, bracelets, medals, etc. has become very common.
