10 Things to Know About Dot Peen Marking Machines

Dot peen marking is the process that allows the manufacturers to create a deep and permanent impression on any material. It is widely used by manufacturers to create logo marks, designs, or customized messages for their users. Gone are the days when marking was done by humans, if you want perfection then a dot-peen marking machine is the way to go.  In this post, let’s list down some of the features of the dot peen marking machine that make it so famous among manufacturers.

How Does Dot Peen Marking Machine Works?

The machine uses a pneumatically or electromagnetically driven pin to create a series of very closely formed dots in a straight or curved line. It can be used either manually or in a fully automated force. The perfect markings are made in no time.

10 Things About Dot Peen Marking Machine

Versatile:

It is a portable machine which makes it ideal for marking large batches, frames, or other products. For marking large to small parts, the machine can be attached to the column base. The cherry on top is that it is a quick process, which means a large number of products can be marked in a short period.

Durable:

The markings made by the tool are precise and durable. The mark is permanent and will remain durable for a long time. This method is becoming increasingly popular for bicycles, aircraft, and other vehicles.

Data- Storage:

Data matrix (a dimensional code consisting of black and white cells consisting of information that can be encoded in numeric and text data) has a significant amount of memory to store 2335 alphanumeric or 3116 numeric characters. So, you can easily imprint various messages and designs.

Advanced Technology:

The industry is moving towards innovation and advanced technology for efficient and error-free production. The manufacturing industries are moving towards- industry 4.0 which means a connected interface and real-time focus that requires little to no human involvement. The dot pin marking machine can also be connected to the network to share real-time information making the process more efficient.

Flexible:

There are various kinds of marking options available with the minimum need for adjustment.

• Alphanumeric
• 2D code
• Visuals
• Orientation and deformation

Also, it can mark various kinds of materials be it steel, aluminum, bronze, and carbide to name a few.

Low Maintenance:

The dot-peen marking machine utilizes a tungsten carbide needle, which is durable but can wear- and tear over time due to regular usage. The continuous usage of machinery means replacement of equipment is necessary at some point in time so that the quality of productivity does not go down. 

No Wastage:

None of the material is wasted during the production process as the focus is to create markings on the surface without removing any layers, so it is a cost-efficient process.

Marks Uneven Surface:

The machinery is capable of creating quality markings, even on uneven surfaces. It can mark a surface with a difference of about 5mm. Cylinders and angular surfaces can also be marked precisely.

Adaptable:

As already told this marking tool is an innovation of Industry 4.0- it is an adaptable machine on which accessories can be connected to add features and enhance its versatility. For the products that require customized marking, personalization of the process by connecting it to various interfaces is possible.
