CNC & Mechanical Engraving Services

CNC-controlled cutting tools remove material along programmed paths to create recessed lettering and graphics.

Mechanical engraving provides another process option when the part, material or required feature favors a cutting tool over a laser.

Tool access, cutter geometry and fixturing determine achievable detail. Recessed marks can be reviewed for optional color fill.

Metal components and plates: include the alloy, hardness and finished condition so tooling and workholding can be considered.

Plastics and other machinable substrates: provide the material designation and thickness, including any laminate layers.

Shaped parts: supply dimensions and the accessible marking surface. Clamping and nearby features can restrict tool access.

Equipment panels and plates with labels, legends, logos or reference markings.

Production fixtures and tools with identification or engraved reference features.

One-off industrial parts and repeat batches requiring a controlled engraved layout.

Include a dimensioned layout, material, overall size and required engraving depth or profile.

Share character size, line width, color-fill requirements and any surfaces that cannot be clamped.

Provide quantity, requested delivery and acceptance requirements. Detailed geometry is reviewed before production is committed.

What parts can be mechanically engraved? Applications include industrial panels, identification plates, tooling and machined parts. Material hardness, tool access, engraving depth and workholding determine feasibility.
