Abstract

This Research Paper describes effects of laser Engraving on various materials by varying process parameters and by using different laser engraving machines. Laser Engraving is a non conventional machining process for engraving/marking and it is a non contact type process. Previously where only Electrical Discharge Machines were used, laser engraving and marking have replaced them due to a unique combination of speed and versatility. In Laser Engraving process material removal is done layer by layer and which is in the range of very few microns. In This paper parametric Optimization of fiber laser engraving is done on EN31 bearing and SS304 by selecting various input parameters like Engraving speed, Frequency and power and response parameters to be optimized were Surface roughness and line width.
