The contrast / brightness of marks achievable on the fiber laser are excellent and can often be much
brighter than marks from a C02 laser. Taking the fiber laser out of focus by +.03” - .09” broadens the beam and
produces a very bright mark on anodized coating. Lower frequency and higher power settings help offset the
change in focal point. Different grades of anodized & core aluminum alloy will affect how the final marks look.

Engraving aluminum will result in various shades of gray, not black. Fine tuning the settings can provide
a bit more contrast but the range of applicable marks is very narrow. If the application calls for a black
etch, consider using an oxidizer after engraving. Oxidizers are used most commonly if the aluminum has a
protective coating (urethane, clear coat, clear anodized) covering the area that is not engraved. Deep metal
engraving on aluminum can be done using multiple passes. Consider deep engraving and using a black
epoxy/color fill. Although the marks on aluminum are not black like they are on steel, we have no difficulty
getting 2D, UID barcodes to scan and verify.
