Metal tools are subject to intensive use throughout their life cycle, which means that marking must be carried out in such a way as to withstand the harsh working environment in which they are used. These tools have a value, which you want to protect. As a supplier of tools and equipment, you need to guarantee the highest quality, while complying with current identification standards. There are several challenges for the identification of tools and equipment:
For all these reasons, you need to continuously identify your tools and equipment so that you can trace them throughout their life cycle. It is a question of quality, efficiency, cost reduction and compliance with standards.
Do you need a versatile solution for every shape and material?
Aware that the implementation of a tool and equipment traceability system is an important issue for these manufacturers and that it represents an investment, Gravotech supplies turnkey marking stations using different technologies for small and medium series marking with controlled costs. You will mark everything, in batches or individually, with our powerful and very easy to use solutions. With them, you can mark any date, brand, logo, serial number, identifier, or special code directly and permanently on your equipment, in text or 2D coded format.

Laser station + Rotary Device - Laser station LW2 is the most appropriate solution as the laser marking can be done on the hardest material used for drill bits. We can have great contrast on carbide and High-Speed Steels without damaging the material.
On titanium coating, we can obtain a surface black marking that does not remove this protective coating. Also, we can add in the laser station a rotary device specially designed to mark on any cylinder.
