Dot peen marker offers simplified teaching

Kwik Mark Inc. has introduced X series markers for demanding applications. The cantilevered marking head provides an open line of sight, while the marking head can retract to clear other tooling and equipment. Up to six axes are motion control-ready, and no PC or control box is required. For custom integration with logic, additional I/O is available.

The patented iTeach function allows the operator to use the marking tip as a pointer to define the text path. The operator can teach the starting point of a line (1 point), the angle to use for angular text (2 points), and the radius for arc text (3 points) without prints or measuring tools.
