Versatile Technifor XF510M with electromagnetic micro-percussion system can mark all types of materials
1 min read
Technifor is offering a marking solution for use, it says, on all types of material, the XF510M. The micro-impacts from a carbide tipped stylus create a lasting mark on the material surface, without causing stress or chippings.
The XF510M is the result optimising its range and, says the company, by adding a powerful electromagnet combined with an optimal guide system to produce marking of remarkable precision and quality.
Whatever the nature of the material or the conditions under which it is to be used, this type of marking can produce results that are lasting and cannot be changed. The depth of marking can be as much as 0.2 mm for a large number of metals, thus ensuring totally reliable traceability, even in the toughest environment.
The force of the different marking impacts made by theTechnifor XF510M is precision-controlled, producing light markings on plastic parts or deep markings on steel. Added to this, the stiffness of the mechanical assembly guarantees constant depth and repeatability of the impacts, which are perfectly aligned by the high precision guidance system, says Technifor.
The light and compact fast marker heads can be integrated into all production line layouts (revolving tables, robot arms, etc) and can be used in all positions. The multi-purpose XF510m range is fitted with a high amplitude stylus, suitable for all part shapes, including flat, convex, concave.
Fast turnaround times provided by the Technifor XF510M (as little as 4 seconds for a 10 x 10 DataMatrixTM) mean that it can work in the background, without any negative impact on production line cycle times. The remote control unit, located up to 15 m away, includes an 18-language interface and can accommodate 14 keyboard types. The universal power supply has 90 to 250 V compatibility. A large backlit screen, with user-friendly icons and contextual help, enables programming of all types of marking, including text, logos, variables, time stamping, counters and 2D codes.
The Technifor XF510M is ready for all current communication protocols for added flexibility: Ethernet, USB, RS232 including an interface card with 8 inputs and 4 outputs. It can work autonomously or can be controlled by a PC or PLC.
