Comprehensive Material list and Material Specific Engraving Capabilities

PrimeCore Precision provides permanent engraving and marking solutions optimized for each material and substrate. Settings, depth, contrast, and finish are selected based on the material type, thickness, surface treatment, and functional requirements of the part.

Engraving applications include permanent identification, traceability, branding, asset management, compliance labeling, and functional markings for industrial, commercial, and specialty use cases.

If a material or item is not listed below, it can usually still be evaluated. New substrates are tested regularly to support custom and evolving applications.
