Stencil A stencil is a template or pattern used to create consistent and repeatable designs, markings, or shapes on a surface through the application of ink, paint, or other marking materials. In laser engraving, stencils can be made from various materials such as paper, plastic, metal, or rubber and are typically designed with cutouts or openings corresponding to the desired engraved features.
By placing the stencil over the workpiece and applying the laser beam, operators can transfer the stencil pattern onto the surface, creating precise and uniform engravings with minimal effort. Stencils are commonly used in laser engraving for applications such as signage, labeling, decorative art, and industrial marking, where consistent design replication and efficiency are essential. |
