Q: Can you laser engrave ceramics?

Yes. You can engrave ceramics with a CO2 laser machine. A color change can only be achieved with a laser marking spray. Without a marking spray, the ceramic engraving is produced without contrast.

Q: Which laser machine can engrave granite?

You can remove the stone layer using a CO2 laser machine and beautiful contrasts can be created on granite. Fonts, logos or large photo engravings can be implemented quickly.

Q: Can a fiber laser engrave stone?

No. A fiber laser doesn’t have the right wave length to engrave stone.
