Modern large-scale production, logistics, wholesale and retail trade can not work without using industrial marking systems. Etching on finished products and individual components and parts allows keeping a computer record of goods in production, storage, transportation, sales, the return of goods and products. Modern hand held peen marking solutions thanks to DataMatrix code and other coding methods can contain very large amounts of information both about the product itself and about the company that made it.  To date, the industry uses a variety of labeling methods. The most common way now is to use a handheld dot peen marking system.

How Does Handheld Dot Peen Marking Machine Work

Dot peen engraving handheld systems provide direct and permanent etching, resulting in high clarity and deeper marks. They achieve this with the use of a carbide pin that dents the surface, producing all shapes and sizes of numbers and alphabets, such as 2D data, logos, data matrix code, and continuous lines.

The usage of handheld portable dot peen marking machine offers greater flexibility applied texts, the height and width of the characters, and the depth of the etching thanks to the shock-point method. Due to the small force effect, it is possible to engrave massive, hollow and brittle parts. Mechanical tolerance compensation of a handheld dot peen marking machine also allows engraving on medium and big metal parts.

What Is the Practical Application of Portable Dot Peen Marking Machine

HeatSign’s handheld dot peen engraving machines are standardized to handle a wide range of substrates from plastic to hardened steel (up to 60 HRC) exceptionally well. These handheld systems are perfect for use on products or materials that a benchtop etching machine cannot mark, whether due to the size of the parts or the weight. A lightweight etching head is used to engrave signs and the operation buttons are fitted into the handle for easy use. Our handheld dot peen engraving system is available around the world and is popular for its perfection, depth, and ease of operation.

What Are the Benefits of Portable Dot Peen Marking Equipment

  • This type of handheld etching is suitable to most of the materials used for the manufacture of industrial products;
  • The etching has a service life comparable to the life of the product on which it is applied. It can not be washed off like a paint, replaced like a label. It is impossible to make any changes to the encoded information. Thus, the consumer receives more evidence that the product is not a forgery;
  • The height and width of the characters changes;
  • The depth of the etching adjusts by compressor air power;
  • It is possible to apply special characters and different symbols;
  • The applied image has increased wear resistance. It is not afraid of the unfavorable and aggressive environment during storage, transportation, and operation;
  • Low noise level;
  • Low impact force;
  • The absence of industrial debris due to the displacement of the material;
  • Inexpensive standard systems from portable marking machine suppliers;
  • This is the fastest way of etching industrial products. Special preparation of the surface of the product is not required. After putting down the stigma there is no need to wait until the paint has dried.

In any case, testing the capabilities of the dot etching equipment in operation is  the most reasonable solution.
