Please note, it is possible to mark metals with the CO2 with the use of ceramic marking sprays. We have made a choice not to offer this option for the moment.
We have also made the active choice not to offer services on tungsten, titanium, gold and silver even if our engraver can mark them mainly because of either the temperamental nature of the material or because it is a precious metal. We can accept request on a case by case basis.
Other compatibilities
We have an in-house 60W CO2 laser operating at 10.6 micrometer. We can accept other compatible materials for testing and service as long as lasering the materials does not emit corroding or toxic fumes.
