Gun Engraving with a Laser Marking System

Briley Manufacturing, located in Houston, TX, is legendary in the competition and recreational shooting arenas. They are well known for gun chokes and tube sets, gunsmithing services, accessories, and products for original equipment gun manufacturers.

Mike Guigliano, Manager Gunsmith Division, says that "the Jimani laser is so easy for us to use. Our operators are able to easily and quickly create files using the Prolase laser marking software and then be engraving parts at the very high quality levels our customers demand. The operators can make quick fixture adjustments in the enclosure as well as in the laser job file so they can switch from one part to another very quickly."

He adds that "The marks we get using the Prolase laser marking software on the Langolier enclosed fiber laser are cleaner and crisper than the old 50 watt YAG system we used. The Jimani fiber laser marking system does not burn the surface of the material but gives an edge quality that is obviously better."

Briley makes shotgun choke tubes, barrel extensions, handgun parts, and other accessories. The parts are made from 17-4 stainless, hardened stainless steel, 4140 mild steel, and anodized aluminum. Parts and materials are marked with part number text and logos for branding purposes.

Mr. Guigliano states that "Jimani is so supportive of our efforts. If we ever have a question they are always ready with the right answer. Jimani supports the laser marking system at a level that exceeds our expectations."

The 50 Watt Langolier enclosed fiber laser marking system design is meant for laser engraving parts both large and small. This enclosed design is ideal for firearm manufacturers - it allows you to laser engrave just about any material.

A Jimani Langolier laser marking system is a turn key system and flexible tool for space challenged manufacturing and processing environments. The enclosed Langolier is designed to be a compact, stand alone laser marking station flexible enough to handle one off samples and mid-range production runs.

All Langolier fiber laser marking systems are supplied with Prolase, a user friendly, proven, robust laser marking software package very easy to use for importing and manipulating graphics files for brands, logos, and schematic files.
