How to Create Monogram Necklaces


Ever since Carrie Bradshaw sported her name pendant on “Sex and the City,” women the world over have clamored for similar personalized jewelry items. Not only are these necklaces demanded by the wearers themselves, they also make excellent, thoughtful gifts. From brick and mortar jewelry stores to on-line shopping, retailers are offering name cutout necklaces and monograms for sale. These name cutouts are simple to make using advanced laser marking systems and laser marking software. The options available include: initials, monograms, first names and nicknames in the style or font of your choice.

Type of Metals Used for Laser Cutting

 
Name cut out pendants come in a variety of metals. Whether the customer chooses gold, silver, brass, copper, stainless steel or tungsten, laser cutting remains the most accurate method of creating the name. The range of options means this is a trend that isn’t exclusive to women; men typically prefer heavier metals and a bolder font, and jewelers generally try to accommodate all preferences. Stainless steel, for example, is popular with men because it has a slightly more casual feel about it, and laser cutting works better on the metal than any other fabrication method does.
 

Fiber Laser Marking Systems

Of the many different types of laser marking machines, the better choice for laser cutting is a fiber laser marking machine. These marking machines have higher consistent power than other types of laser marking systems available and are ideal for cutting thin metals such as those used for making jewelry, as opposed to heavier metals used in industrial environments. The fiber laser marking equipment uses a laser beam delivered in short pulses, which gives quality ablation and annealing. A clean, environmentally-friendly process, a fiber laser marking system uses no consumables and needs very little maintenance. The machinery is compact with a small footprint, and this makes it easy to install them in any location.

Jewelers looking for new items to add to their product line would do well to consider introducing name cut outs and monograms in a variety of designs and metals. By purchasing fiber laser marking machinery they can provide custom designs for customers, and the equipment also has other uses for jewelry marking, engraving and identification.
