Anodized aluminum is widely used for equipment identification because it combines low weight, corrosion resistance and good graphic durability.

It is suitable for industrial equipment, electrical equipment, control systems, instruments and OEM products.

Plates can include logos, technical information, serial numbers, barcodes and QR codes.

Custom aluminum nameplates

Stainless steel is suitable for demanding environments where strength, abrasion resistance and corrosion resistance are important.

304 stainless steel is suitable for many general industrial, factory and outdoor applications.

316 stainless steel is often selected for marine, coastal, chemical-processing or other corrosive environments.

Custom stainless steel nameplates

Brass equipment plates are often selected where identification and premium appearance are both important.

They are suitable for specialty equipment, instruments, premium OEM products and applications where a decorative metallic appearance is required.

Custom brass nameplates

Laser engraving or marking is suitable for detailed text, serial numbers, logos, barcodes, QR codes and variable information.

Laser engraved equipment nameplates

Screen printing or digital printing can be used when designs require multiple colors, warning graphics or more complex visual layouts.

For aluminum equipment nameplates, information can be incorporated into or combined with the anodized surface depending on the required process.

Equipment nameplates can integrate machine-readable identification for asset management, preventive maintenance, equipment history, spare-parts records, inspection records, digital manuals and equipment database links.

For reliable scanning, barcode and QR code size, contrast, surface glare, marking process and expected scanning distance should be considered during artwork review.

For barcode-focused projects, see our metal barcode labels.

Suitable where mechanical mounting is required.

• Round holes
• Custom hole diameters
• Defined hole spacing
• Slots or special mounting patterns

Hole dimensions and positions should preferably be supplied in a mechanical drawing.

Pressure-sensitive adhesive can be used where drilling or riveting is not suitable.

Please provide:

• Mounting surface material
• Smooth or textured surface
• Painted or powder-coated surface
• Indoor or outdoor use
• Temperature range
• Exposure to water, oils or chemicals

Equipment nameplates can be manufactured with custom dimensions, rounded corners, special profiles, slots, mounting holes, cut-outs and defined edge clearances.

If the plate must align with existing holes, switches, displays or equipment geometry, please provide a dimensioned DXF, DWG or PDF drawing.

For control cabinets and electrical systems, see our electrical equipment nameplates.

For harsh environments, nameplate selection should begin with the operating conditions rather than appearance alone.

1. Send Your Requirement

Send the drawing, dimensions, material, quantity, application and artwork.

2. Manufacturing Review

We review material, marking method, mounting details and variable-data requirements.

3. Drawing Confirmation

Production details are confirmed before manufacturing.

4. Sample or Production

Where required, samples can be evaluated before the main production run.

5. Repeat OEM Orders

Approved specifications can be used for future repeat manufacturing.

Aluminum, stainless steel and brass can be selected according to the application.

Laser engraving, chemical etching, anodized marking and printing allow the marking system to match the equipment requirement.

Serial numbers, barcodes, QR codes and changing identification data can be incorporated into production.

Custom sizes, holes, profiles and mounting details can be produced according to customer drawings.

Suitable for prototypes, production batches and repeat equipment manufacturing programs.

Manufactured for industrial and commercial customers requiring custom specifications rather than standard retail plates.
