Frequently Asked Questions

Can a laser engraver engrave aluminum?

Yes β€” aluminum can be laser engraved, but the type of aluminum and the laser source matter significantly.

Bare aluminum reflects a high percentage of light, so fiber and UV lasers are used for permanent marking and deep engraving. Anodized or coated aluminum can also be engraved using diode or COβ‚‚ lasers, where the laser removes the surface coating to reveal high-contrast markings underneath.

Can a 20W laser engrave aluminum?

A 20W laser can engrave anodized and coated aluminum very effectively and is commonly used for nameplates, QR codes, logos, and aluminum tags. However, for raw, uncoated aluminum, a 20W diode or COβ‚‚ system is not sufficient for permanent engraving β€” a fiber or UV laser is recommended for that application.

What wattage laser is needed to engrave aluminum?

The ideal wattage depends on the aluminum type and production volume:

  • Anodized or painted aluminum: 10W–20W diode or COβ‚‚ systems work well
  • Bare aluminum surface marking: 20W–30W fiber laser minimum
  • Deep engraving & industrial throughput: 50W–100W fiber laser systems

Higher wattage enables faster processing, deeper engraving, and better contrast.

Can a 40W laser engrave aluminum?

A 40W COβ‚‚ or diode laser can engrave coated or anodized aluminum beautifully but cannot engrave raw aluminum directly. For permanent marking, serial numbers, logos, and deep engraving on bare aluminum, a 40W fiber laser (not COβ‚‚) is required β€” making fiber the preferred solution for industrial aluminum engraving.
