Engraving has come a long way from the crude
tools that our ancestors once used. From woods to
etching pens, today's engraving industry makes
use of different methods including rotary and
laser engravers. Computerized rotaries as well as
laser engravers have their own advantages and
disadvantages.
3
Below are just some of the features of each
machine to help those who are new to the industry
find the machine of their choice. Rotary machines
are ideal for etching all kinds of metal whether
they be coated or non-coated as it makes use of
"diamond drag" tool that creates deep cuts to the
material, producing a beautiful engraved look.
4
This machine is also perfect for small etchings
such as customized engravings on gold rings and
since it is cheaper than laser, it is preferred
by many in the industry. It is also favoured by
craftsmen who are into acrylic products as rotary
cuts and engrave deeper than laser.
5
Also, it is used by many who are interested in
filling the etched parts with colors. Although
the rotary machine is ideal, it also has its
disadvantages, one of which is that it is slower
and requires specific cutters to ensure precise
details.
6
This disadvantage however is useful, when it
comes to carving out thicker materials where
depth and raised characters are desired or with
glass that contain high lead content. When it
comes to faster and simpler engraving, the laser
machine has its advantages especially for those
who are interested in a clean and crisp look.
7
Additionally, since one uses laser, contact is
less and as such, there is little wear and tear
marking the products. Laser is preferred for
acrylic as it easily etched the designs fast and
since the material is lighter and thinner, rotary
etching tools might break the material when care
is not properly exerted.
8
Laser is also preferred when it comes to
producing bar codes on packages since most
formats require complex markings that rotary
tools might not be able to produce in precise
details. Choosing the ideal machine depends on
the material that one is interested in working on.
9
Glass or crystals that have high lead content
might break from the laser because of its lead
level which produces heat that can lead to
chipping or breaking of the glass material. But
the case might not be so when using rotary
machines.
10
Rotary machines also work well with metal
jewellery whether coated or uncoated because of
its diamond graver which can etch out metal
materials. That said, leathers, paper, fabrics,
bar codes and acrylic users might find lasers
ideal as these produce clean and crisp details
without the wear and tear that rotary machines do.
