Part Marking Services
At Automation-Plus we offer our client the choice of non-contact marking or direct part marking options to best meet the requirements of each project. Our extensive background with inks affords us the opportunity to help our customers learn about options available to them through ink jet marking that they may not have known about. In addition to ink, we offer marking methods that include CO2 and YAG lasers, micro-percussion, dot peen, vibro-etch, chem-etch, and rubber stamp.
Marking on bare metal, coated metals, plastic, glass, wood, and leather is never a problem. We also have the capability to build UL-508 panels. We can print linear, 2D, and QR barcodes as well as invisible codes, graphics, and text. Invisible markings, heat cure and UV cure inks are available as marking options. Inks come in black, white, red, blue, and violet colors and as fast drying, porous, non-porous, pigmented, or non-pigmented inks.
We can mark parts that are 3″ to 5″ wide and up to 4′ high. Markings can be produced in an area measuring .375″ to .5″ with character sizes from .060″ to 2″. We offer a repeatability of 47 microns for our part marking service.
