Coding and Marking Solutions by Linx Printing Technologies

A modern vehicle contains thousands of individual components, each of which may need a specific part number. The cost to a vehicle manufacturer of dealing with the consequences of a defective part can be huge, taking into account not just recall costs, but possible fines, loss of share value and damage to reputation. Linx direct part marking solutions, particularly 2D codes, can combine with vision systems to deliver robust and reliable traceability.

In addition, the need for durable, clear and accurate codes is a given, whether for monitoring components through the assembly process, for stock control, anti-counterfeiting, or to meet customer expectations.

Aside from vehicle components, the automotive industry often requires coding and marking solutions for other materials such as cardboard boxes for component packaging. These outer cases usually require text and graphics which are easy to see. Linx Large Character Printers provide a high-resolution printing and are easy to set up and adjust, offering a cost-effective alternative to pre-printed boxes or labels.

Continuous Ink Jet (CIJ) - perhaps the most cost-effective choice for automotive marking and coding, CIJ maintains an important place as it can print on almost any substrate. A wide range of inks are available to use with CIJ printers including coloured inks to ensure legibility on any colour substrate, UV-readable inks for anti-counterfeiting or water-removable inks for internal traceability, adding yet another dimension to the coding process.

Marking and coding in parts of the automotive sector by Macsa Laser

Component manufacturers for the automotive sector need to mark their products to identify them, add instructions and, due to traceability reasons, it is increasingly necessary to apply a 2D code to these products in order to comply with the AIMDPM-1-2006 regulation. In the automotive sector, Macsa ID provides solutions for the laser marking of metal parts and plastic materials such as day&night buttons. The marking and coding of vehicle parts facilitates their control, safety, and traceability. They can include alpha-numeric information or 2D codes, data matrix or QR codes that contain more information about the components.

Laser coding systems offer low maintenance costs and provide a marking that is resistant to abrasive processes during the production of the parts.
