What is a desktop laser?
Tabletop lasers are among the most compact variants and are ideal for workstations in production, laboratories, or workshops.
A marking laser is a system for permanently marking components and products using a laser beam. The surface of the material is selectively altered without using additional consumables such as ink or labels.
Typical procedures include: Laser engraving, Annealing marking, Material removal and Carbonation.
Advantages of a laser engraving system as a desktop laser
Desktop laser marking machines offer numerous advantages for industrial marking and are convincing
through their efficiency and compact design.
Compact design for flexible placement
Desktop lasers require little space and can be seamlessly integrated into existing production environments.
Ergonomically advantageous
In combination with a height-adjustable table, the laser can be individually adjusted for employees.
Low operating costs and low maintenance
MOPA Fiber lasers and UV lasers operate with virtually no wear and require no consumables.
Versatile for use with different materials
A laser engraving system is suitable for metals, plastics, and many other materials. Different processes are possible depending on the material.
Permanent and tamper-proof marking
Laser markings are abrasion-resistant, heat-resistant, and resistant to chemicals – ideal for industrial requirements.
Highest precision and repeatability
Even the smallest fonts, logos, and codes can be marked precisely and reproducibly.
Typical application areas - Laser engraving systems
Industrial laser marking machines are used in numerous industries, especially wherever permanent markings are required:
- Tool and mould making
- Metalworking industry
- Mechanical Engineering and Industry
- Automotive and supplier industry
- Medical technology (e.g., UDI labeling)
- Electronics and Printed Circuit Board Manufacturing

What materials can be processed with a laser marking machine?
Our desktop laser marking machines enable precise processing and permanent marking of a wide variety of materials. Depending on the laser source used, metals, plastics, and other materials can be marked efficiently and gently.
For the metal labeling A fiber laser is typically used. This is particularly suitable for materials such as stainless steel, aluminum, brass, or titanium and enables high-contrast and durable markings.
Laser-engraved nameplates with annealing marking and material removal on stainless steel and aluminum
UDI labeling on stainless steel with Annealing marking
At the plastic labeling UV lasers are often used because they work particularly gently and can precisely mark even sensitive materials such as ABS, polycarbonate, or polyamide.
Furthermore, with the appropriate laser marking machine, other materials such as glass, ceramics, or coated surfaces can also be reliably marked.
The choice of the right laser marking machine largely depends on the material, the desired marking type, and the individual requirements in production.
What laser marking machines are available as tabletop systems?
MOPA fiber laser - ideal for demanding metal marking and many plastics
MOPA fiber lasers are the first choice for high-quality and flexible marking of metals. With individually adjustable pulse durations, they enable particularly high-contrast, colored, and material-friendly markings – even on sensitive surfaces. They impress with high precision, speed, and maximum control over the marking result.
UV Laser - Ideal for plastics and sensitive materials
UV lasers are particularly suitable for the gentle and precise marking of plastics and sensitive materials. Due to their short wavelength, they operate with minimal heat development, which prevents material deformation. This allows fine structures, small fonts, and high-contrast markings to be realized reliably.
CO₂ Laser – for organic materials
CO₂ lasers are ideal for processing and marking organic materials, as well as selected plastics. They are commonly used for materials such as wood, leather, paper, or acrylic, delivering clean, uniform, and high-contrast results. Due to their specific wavelength, CO₂ lasers achieve particularly good results on non-metallic materials, making them a proven solution for numerous applications in industry, craft, and advertising technology.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) - Laser engraving system
Which laser marking machine is right for my application?
The choice primarily depends on the material and the desired labeling. For metals, a fiber laser is generally used, while UV lasers are particularly suitable for plastics. We will assist you in selecting the optimal solution.
What materials can be engraved with a desktop laser?
With a laser marking machine, numerous materials can be processed, including metals such as stainless steel and aluminum, as well as many plastics. Glass, ceramics, and coated surfaces are also possible depending on the laser type.
Does a engraving laser require a lot of maintenance?
Modern laser marking machines are very low maintenance. Fiber lasers in particular have a long service life and require hardly any wear parts, which reduces operating costs.
How safe is a desktop laser in operation?
Enclosed table systems generally correspond to laser class 1 and are therefore safe to operate. They can be used in production without additional protective measures.
Can I also mark serial numbers or codes with a laser marking system?
Yes, laser marking machines are ideal for marking serial numbers, barcodes, and Data Matrix codes. These can be applied automatically and with consistent quality.
