Data Matrix coding is being adopted worldwide by leading Aerospace companies giving them lifetime traceability of engine components.
As you can see in this picture the much small DMX code can store a lot more information than a traditional barcode.
Electrochemcial marking is becoming a preferred system for this type of part marking for many types of applications. Main benefits are versatility as the one system can mark many different types of components both large and small and awkward shaped. It is low cost, yet very powerful and easy to use.
For over two years we have been working on a thermal stencil that the operator can use to produce a stencil as and when they need to, hence the name we have given it-Print on Demand. The POD stencil is used with a 300dpi thermal printer and our Microsoft Windows software program. All of this means that electrochemical marking is no longer seen as a low technology solution-it really has come a long way.
In addition to DMX applications we are providing many of these systems for general marking applications where serial number, batch/date codes are required.
