I want to purchase an engraving machine for engraving silver articles
like plate, cups, bowls etc. I also want to engrave gold rings. Can
somebody advice me which is a better choice cost wise as well as
engraving speed wise a Signature Engraving Machine or a Laser
engraving machine.
We recently started carrying the Signature Engraving machines and
man they are some very cool machines. Anyway if you have any
questions please feel free to call or e-mail.
I’ve had experience with several Signature Engraving machines, which
model did you have in mind?
It’s very versatile if you get the extras. I have a friend with a
laser engraver so I’ve had some, limited, experience with it. Though
it is speedy it isn’t good at engraving metal, in some cases, eg.
stainless, you only get a coloring, not a real cut in the metal. And
doing the inside of a ring, I don’t think he can but it might be he
just doesn’t have the fixture.
Someone recently emailed me off list to ask if I just wasn’t a
jeweler who had be reborn into a new body. It was a nice compliment,
but my response is I would have picked a better body lol
