Which technology is best for Data Matrix code marking?

Which technology should I choose for datamatrix code marking?

Each production is unique and requires special attention when selecting the marking technology. It is important to determine the best solution in order to succeed in the 2D coding of your parts.

An expert in identification and traceability, we have developed unrivalled know-how through comprehensive applications and our machines are referenced among many suppliers and manufacturers.
Dot-peen, scribe or laser marking, we help you make the right choice!

Depending on the nature of your parts, your process, your budget, several direct marking technologies are possible:


Dot peen and scribe marking	Laser marking
Profitability and effectiveness	Exceptional marking speed and quality
The carbide tips provide constant marking and a very long service life. The cost of this marking method and its ease of application have made it one of the preferred technologies for direct part marking (DPM). Our machines are able to provide very high-quality Data Matrix marking in a reduced time on any material and hardness up to 62 Hrc. A single marking cycle allows you to mark both datamatrix codes and alphanumeric characters. Several marking surfaces are available to suit your application. Integrated into portable machines, dot peen facilitates mobile marking on the production site.. Our indent marking technology does not damage the part and does not affect its integrity. A range of tips with angles of 120°, 90° and 60° has been specifically adapted to increase the decodability of the marking.	The laser beam can be used to mark very high quality 2D codes at very high speed. Ideal for mass production Its high definition can be used to mark very small codes. The high contrast achieved on many plastics and metals guarantees ease of reading The laser technique provides great production flexibility: non-contact technique, less restrictive part-machine distance, parameters adjustable based on the surfaces states of the parts, high level of automation. Reduced operating costs: less maintenance and no consumables compared with other coding techniques such as inkjet or electrochemical marking. Our laser systems are compact for optimal integration into your production lines. Designed for industrial application, their implementation has been simplified as far as possible to reduce installation times and costs.
