Marking that ensures traceability and regulatory compliance when coding on metal, plastic industrial parts and rubber.
Metal marking and printing on plastic industrial parts, used in the aerospace and automotive industries, is needed for a number of reasons, including brand and part identification, traceability, anti-counterfeiting measures, and regulatory compliance. Some applications may require that the parts be static while the printhead moves, others that the parts are in motion while the printhead remains fixed.
As well as coding on rubber requires either printers that can function in the most demanding of production environments and are capable of using high opacity inks or laser coders that provide high contrast marking or deep etching on rubber.

MARKING ON METAL AND PLASTIC PARTS OFFERS
Four different coding solutions, depending on your different needs when metal marking as untreated metal, painted metal or inkjet printing on industrial plastic parts, being them hard plastic or rubber parts, or other related substances.
Our line of SmartLase laser coders comes in four different wavelengths, with the shortest wavelength working well on bare metal and the others more suitable for high contrast printing on painted metal and some plastics.
For plastics not compatible with lasers, we also offer continuous inkjet, thermal inkjet, and valvejet printer technologies using dedicated inks. Each of these printers has unique advantages.
CODING ON RUBBER OFFERS
Our 9450 contrast series of continuous inkjet (CIJ) printers, featuring a patented pigment ink circuit, uses high contrast, durable inks that ensure clearly legible codes, even on the darkest of substrates. Available in a wide variety of colors, these inks are highly resistant to harsh environmental conditions and display excellent adhesion qualities.
Alternatively, for permanent and ink-free coding on rubber, we offer the CO2 SmartLase C600, as well as the fiber SmartLase F250 laser coders. The fiber laser coder is usually used to produce high contrast codes, while the CO2 laser coders are best suited for deep etching or engraving into the rubber. The permanence of laser codes guarantees the traceability of your products over the long term, and these coders are capable of creating complex messages, including barcodes.

High-quality, fast, chemical-free, permanent coding and marking
Markem-Imaje's laser marking machines are either CO2, Fiber, or UV.
CO2 laser marking technology is suitable for metal caps.
Fiber laser marking is suitable for bare metal and rigid plastics and is used in the automotive and electronics industries and FMCG. It provides high-speed printing in large coding areas, tough environments, multi-head scribe and high-contrast codes.
Ultraviolet printing is an alternative solution for CO2 or fiber laser printing when these are not suitable for the substrate.
- Consumables free
