Laser-Marking Technology

From Advanced Input Systems
 

 

Laser marking is state-of-the-art technology, which permanently applies computer-generated text, graphics, and machine-readable code on many materials-most notably metal, plastic, and elastomeric materials. A laser mark gives your input device a sharp and progressive look in today's demanding, competitive marketplace.
