Wood: A versatile material for multiple applications and laser marking

Wood is one of the most versatile and environmentally friendly materials on the planet. It is relatively affordable, has a warm aesthetic, and is incredibly strong, making it suitable for a wide range of uses. Once cut and dried, wood is employed in various industries, such as household goods, engineering, construction, transport, and paper production. In addition, wood has significant potential for laser marking, which allows manufacturers to apply high-quality markings with precision.

Characteristics of wood

The qualities of wood vary depending on the tree species and the specific conditions in which the tree was grown. Nevertheless, despite these variations, most types of wood share certain common characteristics. Wood can be classified into hardwood and softwood, based on its hardness. This classification is important when determining the wood’s applications and how it should be processed.

Laser marking on wood

Laser engraving on wood is a highly efficient process, easily achieved with CO2 lasers. The power of the laser determines the level of darkness and contrast desired in the marking. For example, with Macsa ID’s SPA line, a versatile laser marking system, manufacturers can choose from power options ranging from 10W to 100W. This adaptability allows marking on areas as small as 40×40 mm or as large as 500×500 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of wood marking needs. As a result, wood laser marking can be applied to a variety of industrial coding applications, from decorative engravings to functional component markings.
