LASER · CO₂ + DIODE ]

Laser engraving in Kerala

Permanent engraving, marking and precision cutting on wood, acrylic, leather and coated metal — CO₂ and diode sources on a 600 × 400 mm bed, run and inspected in Kerala, shipped across India.

01 / The process ]

Production-grade, not a hobby print.

Laser processing is subtractive: a focused beam ablates the surface to engrave a mark, drives permanent contrast into a coated or anodized layer, or fully severs thin sheet stock in a clean cut. There is no ink, no tooling and no consumable to wear out — the same file produces the same result on the first piece and the thousandth.

We run two sources so the beam suits the substrate: a CO₂ laser for organics — wood, ply, MDF, acrylic, leather, paper and glass-marking — and a diode laser for fine detail and for marking metals with a bonding compound. Every job is fixtured on the 600 × 400 mm bed, focused for the material, and checked against your artwork before it leaves the studio. Send vector art or a drawing and you get proofed, repeatable output — not a best-guess burn.

02 / What we make ]

Where this process earns its place.

Industrial tags & nameplates

Serialized asset tags, rating plates and equipment nameplates marked permanently on anodized aluminium and coated metal — legible for the life of the part.

Control-panel legends & signage

Engraved panel legends, switch labels and directional signage in two-tone acrylic and wood, with crisp fine text down to small point sizes.

Branded & personalized gifts, awards

Custom-engraved wood, acrylic and leather for corporate gifting, trophies, keepsakes and promotional items — single pieces or repeatable batches.

Acrylic cut parts & stencils

Thin acrylic, ply and leather cut to profile for enclosure fronts, display parts, packaging prototypes and reusable spray stencils.

03 / Why MYPRUS ]

What you get beyond a printed part.

Right source for the substrate

CO₂ for organics, diode for fine marking and compound-marked metal — we pick the beam that gives clean edges and dark, durable contrast on your material.

Artwork & DFM review before we burn

We check vector geometry, line weights, engrave depth and cut kerf, flag anything too fine to hold, and proof placement before the first piece runs.

Repeatable, inspected output

Fixtured on the bed at ~0.01 mm positioning precision and checked against your file, so a batch of a hundred matches the approved first article.

Fast turnaround from one piece

No minimum order and lead times from a single day — prototype a label or engrave a one-off gift, then rerun the same file for production without re-setup.

04 / Substrates ]

Substrates we engrave, cut & mark

Bare or reflective metals — stainless, aluminium, brass — are not cut on a laser; stainless can be laser-annealed or marked with a compound instead. Not sure your material will engrave or cut? Send a sample or spec and we'll advise — see indicative rates and per-substrate detail on the Specs & Pricing page.

Wood, ply & MDF

Organic sheet

Engrave for grain-contrast detail and cut to profile in thin stock — signage, awards, gifts and packaging prototypes.

Acrylic

Cast / extruded sheet

Engrave frosted marks and cut clean, flame-polished edges in thin sheet — panel legends, display and enclosure parts.

Leather, paper & card

Soft organics

Engrave logos and personalization, or cut card and leather for goods, tags and stencils.

Anodized & coated metal

Surface-marked metal

Permanent contrast marks on anodized aluminium and coated or painted metal — nameplates, tags and legends. Bare reflective metal is marked, not cut.

05 / Questions ]

Answered before you ask.

How much does laser engraving cost in Calicut?

Laser work is priced by machine time, engraved area or cut path length, and the substrate — a small engraved tag costs far less than a large multi-part cut sheet, and repeat batches from the same file run cheaper per piece. Send your artwork and quantity for an itemised quote; indicative rates are published on our Specs & Pricing page.

Can you cut and engrave metal?

We mark metal, we don't cut it. Anodized aluminium and coated or painted metals take a permanent engraved mark, and stainless can be laser-annealed or marked with a bonding compound. Bare, reflective metals like stainless, aluminium and brass cannot be laser-cut — only wood, ply, acrylic and leather in thin sheet are cut through.

What's the difference between engrave, cut and mark?

On organics like wood and acrylic, engraving removes material to leave a recessed, visible mark, while cutting drives the beam fully through thin sheet to sever it along a path. On coated or anodized metal there is nothing to cut through, so engraving and marking are the same surface-contrast operation — the beam changes the coating to leave a permanent, durable mark without cutting the part. We'll recommend the right approach for your material and purpose.

What file formats and artwork do you need?

Vector files — SVG, DXF, PDF or AI — give the sharpest engraves and clean cut paths. We also work from high-resolution images for photo-style engraving, or from a sketch and dimensions if you need the artwork set up first.

Do you deliver outside Kozhikode?

Yes. We're based in Kozhikode (Calicut), Kerala, and courier engraved and cut parts across India. Local customers are welcome to collect from the studio or drop off material for a job.
