When it comes to creating etching signs, there are two primary methods of etching: laser etching and chemical etching. Laser etching involves the use of a high-power laser to cut into the surface of the material, creating a design that lasts. Whether it's a simple image, intricate design, or plain text and serial numbers, laser etching delivers precise results.
Chemical etching utilizes a specialized chemical process to carefully dissolve the metal substrate. Only the specified areas of the desired image receive this acid bath treatment, resulting in a finely detailed design. Unlike laser engraving, which has limitations on material thickness, etching can be applied to a wider range of materials.
Regardless of the method used, both chemical and laser etching produce durable designs that are easy to read.
