As technology is improving the need for modern tools to use in all industry are also gaining much popularity. These systems are used in all industry now a day mainly for the purpose of marking. Industrial laser applications are readily growing with every single step that is being taken to improve the range of services that manufacturers have to offer. Lasers stand above all other mechanical and manual methods that can be undertaken for the industrial applications of cutting, marking,and engraving. Laser cutting  leaves a completely polished and finished edge to the surface, requiring no further work.

Most of the applications in other industries originated as a by product of military experiments. Laser applications in the military are used for target designation and ranging. There are many laser applications in the field of medicine. Laser marking  is the most effective and fast marking system available today that it can be used for identification marking on all metal surface even with the hardest metals like carbides. Laser has become a popular method for engraving process in many industries. The main difference between  laser engraving machine and marking is that the engraving machine doesnt have direct contact with the surface which is to be engraved.This is considered as an advantage over alternative engraving technologies where bit heads have to be replaced regularly.

Whatever their history has been, laser applications in industry are here to stay. With the depletion of our fossil fuels, scientists are working on using high powered  laser machine to generate electricity. Since its discovery it has quickly found its way out of the laboratory to the factory floor. Laser applications are widely used in various industries.
