Laser engraving golf clubs combines precision, durability, and personalization—transforming standard clubs into unique, high-end gear. Fiber lasers, especially MOPA (Master Oscillator Power Amplifier) designs, excel at marking stainless steel, titanium, and other alloys used in club heads and shafts. For the most reliable results, the ComMarker line of fiber laser engravers stands out. Whether you’re adding names and logos or deep texturing for grip and aesthetics, the ComMarker B6 JPT MOPA and ComMarker Titan 1 JPT MOPA deliver industry-leading performance, speed, and color-marking capabilities.
Why Laser Engraving for Golf Clubs?
Laser engraving has become the go-to method for golf club customization thanks to its:
- Precision & Detail: Fiber lasers achieve micron-level accuracy, ideal for fine logos, serial numbers, or decorative patterns.
- Durability: Engraved markings resist wear, UV exposure, and corrosion—critical for clubs subjected to repeated impacts and the elements.
- Versatility: Fiber lasers can mark a range of metals—stainless steel, titanium, brass, and more—without changing hardware .
- Speed: High scanning speeds up to 10,000–15,000 mm/s streamline production, from single-club personalization to small batch orders.
Golf club engraving not only elevates aesthetics but also enhances traceability for custom builds and high-end brands.
Fiber vs. Other Laser Types
CO₂ Lasers
- Best for non-metal substrates like wood and acrylic.
- Require marking sprays for metals, leading to extra prep time.
Diode Lasers
- Affordable and compact, but limited in power (≤5 W) and struggle with reflective metals.
Fiber Lasers (MOPA)
- Ideal for metals due to high absorption at 1064 nm.
- MOPA architecture allows adjustable pulse width for color marking and minimized heat-affected zones.
Choosing the Best Fiber Laser: Key Factors
- Laser Power: Clubs typically require 20–100 W. Lower power (20 W) suffices for surface marking; higher power (60–200 W) enables deeper engraving and color marking.
- Pulse Control: MOPA systems let you tune pulse width/frequency for bright colors and contrast on stainless steel.
- Scan Speed: Look for galvanometer-driven heads rated 10,000–15,000 mm/s to maintain throughput on multiple clubs.
- Work Area & Fixtures: Ensure the engraving field covers typical club head sizes (100–150 mm) and offers rotary or tilt fixtures for shafts.
- Software Ecosystem: Compatibility with LightBurn or EZCad2 provides flexible design import (DXF, SVG), preview modes, and batch processing.

Golf Club Engraving Workflow
- Design Preparation
- Use CAD/vector software (CorelDRAW, Adobe Illustrator) to create or import club logos, names, or patterns.
- Save as SVG, DXF, or AI for LightBurn/EZCad2.
- Material & Fixture Setup
- Clean club heads with isopropyl alcohol; apply laser marking spray if needed.
- Secure clubs in a rotary or tilt fixture to ensure consistent focus.
- Laser Parameter Selection
- 20 W B6: 100% power, 30–50 kHz, speed 500–1000 mm/s for stainless steel marking.
- Titan 1: 60–100% power, 20–50 kHz, speed 1000–5000 mm/s for deep etch or color marking.
- Preview & Test
- Use the software preview mode and “air run” to verify positioning.
- Perform a test mark on scrap metal to fine-tune settings.
- Production Run
- Start engraving; monitor the process to ensure clean marks.
- For multi-color effects, adjust pulse width between passes.
- Post-Processing
- Clean engraved areas with a soft brush.
- Apply protective clear coat or oil to prevent corrosion.
Maintenance & Safety Tips
- Lens & Mirror Cleaning: Use lens paper and isopropyl alcohol weekly to maintain beam quality.
- Eye & Skin Protection: Always wear wavelength-specific laser safety glasses and gloves.
- Ventilation: Ensure fume extraction when marking coated or painted club heads.
