Laser Marking Graphite Overview

Graphite is commonly used in batteries, electronics, solar panels, and more. Due to its resistance to heat and overall composition, it is regularly used in applications that require high levels of conductivity, including within the metallurgy field.

When it comes to marking graphite, laser marking systems are versatile tools designed to accomplish clear markings that last. Before you begin the process of laser engraving graphite, it is important to choose a laser that is suited to the industry and facility you operate in.

The right laser will have the power to achieve deep marks with high resolution. Additionally, these technologically advanced machines should be easy to control, giving you added freedom when conducting the depth desired for the engraving. Laser engraving systems are able to go as deep as 0.125” within graphite.

Laser Engraving in Action

Laser engraving graphite is typically a quick process, and it creates lasting marks for materials that are clear, crisp, and readable. When laser engraving graphite, regular marking applications can include serial numbers, logos, tracking numbers, designs, company branding, and more.

  • Batteries
  • Smart phones
  • Laptop components
  • Solar panels
  • Electric motor brushes
  • Crucibles
  • Arc lamps

Benefits of Laser Engraving Graphite

Laser engraving graphite is a simple solution for your product identification needs. This process uses a localized laser pulse to vaporize a thin layer of your product, resulting in a detailed mark that can be used for identification and tracking purposes. Other benefits of laser engraving graphite include:

  • Durability – Engraving provides a durable solution for your graphite application, producing clear marks that can withstand time and a variety of elements. You’ll especially want to utilize engraving if you know that your surface will be a candidate for abrasive treatments in the future.
  • Simplicity – Laser engraving machines typically do not require much upkeep, with our systems requiring no calibrations, water cooling, or alignments. Additionally, MOPA fiber lasers feature low power consumption, therefore reducing their financial and environmental impact.
  • Versatility – When practicing laser marking, a variety of marks are possible, with different depths available through marking, engraving, and etching. This allows it to be a solution across many industries for varied applications.
