Laser marking on automotive metal components

01 — What Can Be Marked

Identification that follows the part for its whole life

Part Numbers

Permanent part numbers on cast, machined and plated components — readable after finishing and assembly.

Serial Numbers

Unique serialization per part, with automatic sequencing from the marking software.

QR Codes

High-contrast QR codes for WIP tracking, service history and warranty records.

Barcodes

Code 128 and other linear codes on steel, aluminum and coated parts.

Logos

Brand marks on housings, brackets and fittings — clean edges on curved surfaces with rotary marking.

Traceability

Full traceability marking — supplier, batch, date and production line in a single readable field.

02 — Recommended Configurations

Material, requirement, machine, configuration

Typical automotive marking jobs and the configurations we recommend. Confirm on your parts with a free sample test.

Material	Marking Requirement	Recommended Machine	Configuration
Stainless Steel	Black DataMatrix, 12 × 12 mm	Fiber 20 W	F160 lens · 110 × 110 mm field · XY table
Aluminum Housing	Logo + serial, 20 × 30 mm	Fiber 30 W	F254 lens · 175 × 175 mm field · rotary axis
Cast Iron / Carbon Steel	Deep part number, 5 mm height	Fiber 50 W	F254 lens · repeated passes · dust extraction
Anodized Aluminum Trim	Color logo marking	MOPA 30 W	F160 lens · pulse-width tuning · rotary axis
ABS Instrument Trim	Fine logo, no melt marks	UV 3 W	F160 lens · low pulse energy · XY table
Rubber / Gasket	Batch code on molded seal	CO₂ 30 W	F160 lens · low power · conveyor ready

Specifications are indicative and confirmed during sample testing on your parts.

03 — Production Requirements

Engineered for the line, not the lab

Automotive marking runs in real production conditions: vibration, dust, heat, and parts arriving in batches with tolerances. The machine is built to hold contrast and position under those conditions.

Integration ready. Foot switch, sensor trigger, conveyor and PLC signals — standard I/O on every controller.
Repeatable placement. Fiducial and edge detection hold marking position as fixtures and parts drift.
Readable forever. The mark is part of the material — it survives plating, heat treatment and service wear.
Documented parameters. Every job saved with power, speed, frequency and lens — recalled in one click.
