CMT Integrates Marking into Automation Systems

Plastics Decorating

The I-Mark™ I-Series dot peen and scribe marking systems from Columbia Marking Tools, Chesterfield, MI, give users maximum flexibility with standard features that are typically offered at extra cost.

This model, specifically designed for easy integration into automation systems, is ideal for a wide range of applications and materials. It comes in standard dot peen and "Silent Scribe" versions. Both can mark at speeds of 4-5 characters per second, including 2D/UID machine readable codes. The Silent Scribe model also can mark CMT’s patented, high-resolution Square-Dot® 2D code. The I-Mark I-Series can be programmed with I-Mark Windows® software remotely, via LAN, or directly with a dedicated PC. The I-Mark I-Series marking heads and controller are designed for 24/7 use.

The head has a solid aluminum frame for durability, and high-torque motors help assure precision marking in any orientation. The NEMA 4 controller offers a wide range of communication options and has four mounting holes for quick placement in automation.
