Pin Marking
WHAT IS DOT PEEN PIN MARKING?
Pin marking (also referred to as stylus marking and dot peen marking) is the use of a carbide or diamond tip "pin" assembly to strike the surface of a part in a succession of dots. These permanent marks are used in manufacturing for part identification, traceability, serial codes, logos, and more. Pin marking is also a pneumatic or electromechanically controlled carbide tip assembly that marks the surface of a part in a sequence of dots to produce a permanent mark. Depending on the marking speed specifications, pin marking can create light, moderate or deep marks on the surface. In addition, pin marking makes room for flexibility as it is computer-controlled.
