A mechanical engineering company from North Rhine-Westphalia produces assemblies and individual components for special machines.
Many components have to be labeled directly in the production process - including with:
- Serial numbers
- Test indicator
- Production date
- internal component codes
The labeling takes place partly directly in the workshop, partly in the outgoing goods department.
The challenge
Previously, adhesive labels or stationary printing systems were used.
This revealed several disadvantages:
- Labels came loose under mechanical stress
- Stationary systems could not be used flexibly
- Additional effort for small series or reworking
- High time requirement due to routes to fixed labeling stations
The company was looking for a compact, mobile solution for fast direct marking - independent of fixed workstations.
The solution
The company opted for the jetStamp® 970 - a handy inkjet marking device for mobile direct printing.
Serial numbers, test marks and production data are now recorded directly on the device:
- Metal surfaces
- Coated components
- Plastic components
- Transport packaging
printed.
Suitable inks produce high-contrast, smudge-proof markings - without additional labels.
Implementation in the process
The jetStamp® 970 can be used flexibly:
- Directly at the assembly workstation
- In quality assurance
- For subsequent labeling of individual components
- In outgoing goods
Thanks to battery operation and compact design, no stationary installation is necessary.
The device is used where the marking is needed - not the other way around.
The integrated display can be used to quickly adjust print content, for example when changing serial numbers or production data.
result
Since the introduction of the jetStamp® 970, the company has benefited from:
✔ Greater flexibility in production
✔ Elimination of additional labels
✔ Time savings through mobile use
✔ Clear and permanent labeling
✔ Simple integration into existing processes
The advantage of mobile direct marking is particularly evident for small batches and individual machine components.
Conclusion
The jetStamp® 970 offers industrial companies a compact solution for fast, flexible direct marking - independent of fixed stations and without label logistics.
