Application by Process

Industrial laser machines mark, engrave, drill, cut, or weld when added to the existing production line. They also perform as standalone machines when products are manually fed and removed by operators. All these processes can be done on flat 2D, 2.5D, and 3D surfaces.

Marking by Laser Modifying the surface of a material for visible barcodes, serial numbers, and product identification.

The use of lasers in manufacturing has been a paradigm-shifting technological advancement, making them one of the most efficient engineering tools.

2 Which laser process is best for automotive parts?

Ans: There is no single laser process that is best for all automotive components. The ideal process depends on the material, shape, and functional requirements of the part.

Laser Marking and Engraving
Recommended for serial numbers, VINs, Data Matrix codes, and QR codes for traceability. Fiber lasers are commonly used for metals, while UV lasers are preferred for heat-sensitive plastics.
Laser Welding
Provides high-strength joints for EV battery packs, motors, sensors, fuel injectors, gears, body components, and transmission assemblies.
Laser Cutting
Used for chassis components, airbag parts, exhaust systems, and custom prototyping. It enables accurate cutting of sheet metal, tubes, and precision automotive parts with minimal burr formation.
Laser Cleaning
Removes rust, paint, oil, oxides, and contaminants from molds, dies, fixtures, and metal surfaces without damaging the base material. Widely used for mold maintenance, surface preparation, and restoration.
Laser Surface Texturing
Creates precise micro-patterns that improve friction, lubricant retention, and adhesion on injection molds, dashboard components, decorative trims, and functional surfaces.
Laser Drilling
Produces extremely small and precise holes in fuel injectors, filters, turbine parts, and sensor housings used in high-performance automotive systems.

Wondering which laser process should I use for marking, engraving, or cutting metal and plastic parts in my production line ?

Quick rule of the thumb is - If the part needs to carry data , its laser marking, If the part needs to be seperated for a shape- Its laser cutting, If the part needs to survive wear and tear- Its laser engraving and if two parts need to be joined- Its laser welding. Markolaser has a complete range of machines for each of these applications.
