Whether you need a standard personal item or microscopic industrial detailing, our state-of-the-art engraving engineering room has the exact right machine for the job.
Meet Our Heavy-Duty Customization Arsenal
🔥 NEW: 30W MOPA Fibre Laser
Our newest heavy-hitting addition! Capable of sub-second speeds—such as engraving completely around a 10mm brass rivet in less than half a second, or hitting an extreme micro-detail like a company logo on a tiny buckle. The MOPA fibre laser allows us to control pulse frequencies with surgical accuracy, achieving stunning high-contrast, black-and-white, or colour marks on metals like stainless steel, brass, titanium, and more.
✨ Laser Engraving & Cutting (CO2)
We offer custom laser engraving right here in-house. From personalised gifts and home décor to business signage and custom cuts across non-metals like wood, leather, acrylic, and fabrics, our CO2 laser turns your ideas into detailed reality.
💎 Diamond Tip Engraving
The classic method offered by traditional shops. It uses a cutting bit with a diamond tip that scratches the surface to leave text or images embedded in the top layer. Ideal for watch backs, pet tags, small trophy plates, tankards, and glass goblets or giftware.
⚙️ Milling & Rotary Engraving (Gravograph IS200 & MG40 / U-Marq X5)
These milling bits and rotary tools cut and remove material to a very specific depth on plastics, wood, and soft metals like brass. Perfect for brass memorial plaques requiring enamel infill colour, durable door signs, trophy bases, and cylindrical items. Our specialist engraving plastics come layered in varying colours (such as silver with a black base) to create a striking, professional finish.
🔍 Glass Etching
Goblets, wine glasses, crystal awards, and trophies etched to absolute perfection.
