Perfect for branding and traceability. Whether it be metal, painted or coated car parts, aerospace components or tools.
Engrave precious metals within seconds. Attach a rotary device, or opt for our 3-Axis for engraving around the circumference of a ring and more.
Ideal for marking phone cases, bottles, tech devices, medical tools, switches, electrical appliances and almost everything else.
Take personalisation to the next level. Easily engrave trophies, medals, fobs, wallets, keys, cup mats, pens and well, almost anything.
Fitted with our own ELI-X17 MOPA Fiber laser and our 3D laser head (3-Axis) for 10x faster marking of curved objects, the Meta-C Fiber is ready for anything.
Take a look at some of our application videos below of the Meta-C MOPA Fiber Laser Engraving Machine at work.
With 180° access you have no limit on part width or length. In Class 2 (door closed), the max part size is 700mm wide x 380mm deep.
The aluminium T-Slot worktable (350mm x 350mm) is built for a range of clip-in accessories and perfect, repeatable alignment of your parts.
Safety tested, pneumatically actuated access panel. Allowing fast hands free marking, with minimal noise and lower wear/tear operation.
We provide 1 interchangeable F254 lens, as standard, delivering a variation of focal lengths, working areas, and focal point sizes.
The Meta-C MOPA Fiber laser engraving machine is designed to speed up your production.
Built for industrial and commercial facilities, with a typical lifespan exceeding 15 years and counting. Compliant with CE, RoHSII, ISO9001 and FDA regulations.
