A pin-impact marking station for applying batch, specification or traceability characters to billet end faces as part of an automatic sawing line.
Process role#
Automatic pin marking uses a striking pin to form characters on billet end faces as an identification step after sawing. The marking head and billet positioning must be coordinated. Multiple-billet applications also require review of the individual end-face positions, character content and available cycle time.
Key technical data#
| Identification method | Pin-impact end-face character marking for batch, specification and traceability identification. |
|---|---|
| Station arrangement | Single- or multiple-billet marking can be evaluated; head count and positioning are selected for the line. |
Information required for selection#
- Billet diameter, alloy, end-face condition and samples for marking trials
- Character content, size, line count and available end-face area
- Single- or multiple-billet layout, billet spacing and positioning requirements
- Marking rhythm, compressed-air and electrical supplies, and saw-line connection requirements
- Sample acceptance criteria for mark depth and readability
