A specialized device utilizes a concentrated beam of light to etch or mark designs onto the curved surface of cylindrical drinking vessels. This process allows for intricate customization, ranging from simple text and logos to complex artwork and photographs, creating personalized or branded drinkware.
This technology offers a significant advancement in drinkware customization. It enables precise, permanent markings resistant to fading or washing away, unlike traditional methods like vinyl decals. This durability, coupled with the capacity for high-detail work, has increased the popularity of personalized tumblers for gifts, promotional items, and personal use. The evolution from manual engraving methods to computer-controlled laser technology has streamlined the process, allowing for faster production and greater design flexibility.
