SYDNEY TROPHY ENGRAVING. LASER ENGRAVERS.
Our most common type of engraving is lasering onto laminate or laser ply products. These products are available in hundreds of different colours and finishes. Brushed silver and brushed gold are the most popular finishes and engrave to reveal a black script which gives fantastic contrast. This style is widely preferred to the traditional CNC stlye of engraving because it is very clear to read and the plaques are more durable. The set up and design is prepared in Corel software which allows us to send engraving proofs through to our customers before engraving. Platinum Awards company policy is that all engraving has to be signed off by the customer prior to engraving which makes errors pretty much non existent.
Trophy Laser Engraving
Laser engraving and marking is basically using a CO2 laser to engrave or mark a given object. Laser Marking changes the colour of the object via chemical reaction. This is a common way of crystal and glass products including giftware, platters, bottles and goblets. It is very effective and clear to read because of the contrast on the metal. If you were using an old school style of machine engraver you would need to paint fill to get a similar effect.
Laser engraving is a more efficient way to engrave as the process is non contact and there is no wear and tear on the engraver. We use specified laser materials to engrave into for the most effective results.
The laser beam is emitted from a movable carriage controlled by computer software. Each material has a set power and speed that if calibrated correctly will engrave or mark precisely. The laser is so precise it can engrave high resolution photographs onto suitable materials. The laser engraver has an x-y table to allow the laser beam to move accurately. The laser beam is focused through a lens at the point of engraving allowing intricate patterns to be engraved.
Our laser engravers use vector and raster settings. The vector follows a precise continuous line where the raster moves back and forth. The vector is often used for cutting and the raster for engraving, similar to how a inkjet printer would use a back and forth motion.
