Introduction

Let’s transform a business card holder into a signature piece.


With precision laser marking, you can permanently add a logo, name, or custom artwork to an anodized aluminum business card holder. The result combines sleek style with everyday practicality, making it ideal for daily work, business travel, or personalized gifts.


In this tutorial, you will learn how to position the business card holder, import the marking file, set the correct focus, frame the design, and complete a personalized business card holder with Aurora Fiber.

Operational Process

STEP01

Prepare & Position the Business Card Holder

Place the anodized aluminum business card holder on the laser bed with the marking surface facing upward.


Since the center area is flat, the business card holder is well suited for laser marking. Make sure the surface is clean, level, and stable before processing.

Import & Adjust the Marking File

Load your design into LightBurn software, then adjust the size and position to fit the business card holder.


Check the logo, artwork, or text placement carefully. Then confirm that the laser marking parameters are set correctly before starting.

STEP03

Set the Correct Laser Focus

Missing the focus is one of the biggest reasons for laser marking failure. Make sure the business card holder surface is properly focused before processing.


You can use auto focus or manual focus. When two red dots are visible on the card holder surface, it is out of focus. When the two light dots overlap each other, the surface is in focus.

STEP04

Frame the Design & Start Laser Marking

Press the frame button and check whether the red light indicates the correct marking area. The frame should be located in the middle of the business card holder.


If the frame is not aligned, adjust the design position until it fits correctly. After checking, close the laser door and begin the Aurora Fiber laser marking process.

Post Processing

Stay near the machine during operation and monitor for unusual sounds or alarms. Avoid looking directly at the laser beam for too long, even when protective measures are in place.


Once laser marking is complete, carefully open the door and remove the personalized business card holder. Clean it gently if needed, then it is ready for daily work, business travel, or gifting.
