Ready-to-Use Marking Stations for Robotic Work Cells



Columbia Marking Tools (CMT) has developed ready-made, complete marking stations to interface with robotic work cells. The compact systems, called Mite-E-Mark, specialize in marking station IDs, date codes or QC marks on products.

According to a CMT spokesperson, "These air impact stations are a lower cost solution to dot-peen and laser marking systems. The units are rugged, provide rapid cycle times and produce deep, highly-legible marks."

"As robotic work cells are increasingly being used in automated production, so has the need for a ready-to-mark air impact stations," said Marc Steele, Marking Specialist at CMT.

These marking stations feature a plug & play design with a selection of dry or lubricated air, all required valves, marker mounts and a part rest. The height and location of the part rest are custom-designed per application. An optional Fieldbus for Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) communications is also available.

"In addition to the convenience it offers, the Mite-E-Mark air impact station is double-acting and perfect for automated production applications where deeper marks are typically required," said Steele. "In fact, it provides 18x the force of an air cylinder of the same width."
