Laser
Marking
Laser marking is an extremely efficient technology that provides fast, high
quality and high contrast marking. We find laser marking is best suited for
primarily marking on metals and some plastics when marking high volume and need
speed, precision and quality are required.
Electrochemical Marking
Electrochemical Marking is a permanent process for part marking in high
resolution onto conductive metal surfaces for traceability and identification of
metal components. It is the lowest stress option for critical components and all
our Aerospace/Nuclear range of electrolytes are independently lab tested to
ensure they meet the purity levels required by the most stringent industry
standards. ECM marking provides a high quality mark similar, to the results of a
laser at the fraction of the cost.
Dot Peen
Marking
Dot peen marking is economical and offers high precision, high speed permanent
marks for your components. Mostly used for metals and plastics it utilises a
carbide tipped stylus to create a low stress permanent mark in the form of
alphanumeric characters, logos and 2D barcode which is ideal for traceability
purposes.
Data
Matrix
Data matrix two dimensional symbols are an excellent option for lifetime
traceability of a component or product. They are very small and carry a great
deal of information. They can be created by using Laser Marking, Dot Peen or
Electrochemical Marking.
Deep
Marking
Deep marking is often required before marking treatments like galvanising,
painting or other coatings when the mark still needs to be legible. Deep marking
is available with all 3 marking technologies; electromechanical marking, laser
marking and dot peen parking.
Logo Marking
All 3 of our marking technologies are capable of producing high quality logos on
a diverse range of materials. Logos on your metal products help make your
products easily identifiable and help to build brand awareness.
Scribe
Marking
We supply the excellent Multi4 Scribe for this method of marking, it is durable
and robust allowing marking on a single part to mass production. Scribe marking
uses a continuous line from a carbide tip to produce high quality logos and
characters on metal.
Hand
Stamps
If you are looking for a low cost, simple method of producing permanent marks on
metal surfaces then hand stamps could be the option for you. All they require is
a hammer, although not the highest quality or fastest method, it is often useful
to have a set on hand as a back up.
