Scribe marking: precision through silence
Scribe marking (or stylus engraving) is one of the fastest and quietest ways to mark metals and plastics. It generates a continuous “scratch” line with a diamond or carbide tip, producing deep, elegant, and low-noise markings.
Automator’s scribe systems combine a large marking area in a compact, lightweight unit — ideal for deep, continuous-line engraving on steel, aluminum, and rigid plastics.
The proprietary AC500+ universal controller with 7" touchscreen allows operators to create text, logos, geometric shapes, and QR or DataMatrix codes with intuitive precision.
With advanced control of stroke depth and position, Automator scribe machines guarantee smooth, permanent results without vibrations or structural stress — a perfect balance of accuracy, efficiency, and operator comfort.
Rolling marking: high-volume efficiency
For cylindrical components or large batches, rolling (or roll) marking offers unmatched productivity and repeatability. The process transfers the mark through pressure, either from a die rolling onto the part or vice versa.
Ideal for pipes, bars, flanges, and round plastic or metal parts, Automator’s rolling markers ensure deep, consistent, and distortion-free results.
Electropneumatic and manual versions accommodate various diameters and shapes — even hexagonal bars — while accessories like interchangeable numerators and extendable holders enhance customization.
Roll marking is fast, durable, and safe: protected activation devices ensure full operator security, and each unit guarantees precise pressure control for uniform marking.
Our heritage in roll systems ensure dependable performance for continuous and integrated production environments.
Hot marking: color, contrast, and creativity
When visual impact matters, hot marking delivers both beauty and performance. Automator’s hot marking machines use a heated head with a precision thermostat to adapt temperature and timing to each material — including plastic, wood, and leather.
This technique enables dry or color marking by inserting a colored nylon ribbon between the part and the marking head. The heat transfers the pigment permanently, creating crisp and vibrant results.
Automator complements its hot marking systems with a complete set of accessories:
- double-acting piston for precise motion
- automatic tape unwinder
- manual and automatic numerators
- steel character holders
- pneumatic safety devices
Simple, fast, and durable, hot marking is ideal for decorative branding or identification on heat-sensitive materials — combining craftsmanship and automation in a single process.
