Plating Plating refers to the process of depositing a thin layer of metal or other materials onto a substrate surface to enhance its properties or appearance. In laser engraving, plated surfaces can be engraved to create intricate patterns, designs, or markings that reveal the underlying substrate material.
Plating materials such as gold, silver, copper, and nickel are commonly used in laser engraving applications to achieve decorative finishes, corrosion resistance, or electrical conductivity on various substrates. Laser engraving systems equipped with appropriate laser parameters and engraving techniques can selectively remove plated layers to reveal contrasting patterns or textures, adding aesthetic value and functionality to engraved products. |
