Abstract

Product marking is frequently necessary for identification, product information, or theft prevention. The unique characteristics of lasers which lend themselves to product marking are indicated. Three techniques of laser marking are discussed -- engraving, dot matrix marking, and mask imaging. Types of laser equipment, cost considerations, and applications for laser marking are discussed in the paper.
