Applied Laser Engineering is the world-leading manufacturer of High Definition Laser Engraving Systems available in a range of sizes and formats.

We specialise in machines which produce engravings into a typically cylindrical form where high resolution and high accuracy over the work-piece are required. Engravings can be of a graphical nature, a simple texture or really almost any pattern that you can think of. Flat sheet engravings can also be produced either wrapped onto a drum or in the flat using our new X/Y systems. Systems can utilise a drum scanning technique, galvo scanning or acousto-optic scanning or a combination there-of. A wide range of substrate materials can also be engraved including polymers, metals, and ceramics to date.

Our systems offer a great deal to the Printed Electronics arena, either directly or modified via an R&D collaboration for a specific end purpose.
