A thin, powerful beam of light that cuts effortlessly through materials and leaves razor-sharp engravings. That is the power of a BRM laser engraving machine. With maximum precision, the laser transforms any digital design into a tangible product – without physical contact, without wear and tear, and with a reliable result every time. But how exactly does this work?
The laser beam
A mixture of several gases is contained within a glass tube at the rear of the machine. A high-voltage electric current passes through this mixture. This creates a laser beam (invisible to the naked eye). This laser beam is focused via a system of mirrors and lenses and directed precisely onto the material.
The focal point
When the concentrated laser beam strikes the material, an extremely hot focal point is created. This causes the top layer of the material to vaporise or melt, creating an engraving that will not fade. This process can be applied to many different materials, such as wood, acrylic, leather, glass and even metal (in combination with a spray).
CNC-controlled – flawless and repeatable
Every BRM laser engraving machine is CNC-controlled (Computer Numerical Control). This means that the entire process is computer-controlled. All you need to do is load a digital design, and the machine does the rest – time and time again with exactly the same result.
