The HMP-1520 Advanced Part marking system was designed specifically for aerospace product identification. The system can mark parts as small as fasteners to as large as wing spars from the same platform. The working part of the system couples an industrial inkjet printer to our AS-1000H Handheld transport device. The AS-1000H provides motion of the inkjet print head across the product to create the identification mark. The print head does not touch the product which allows the mark to conform to the rough or contoured surfaces. Our APS-2000 aerospace parts-marking software with a Windows based computer provides an application tailored to the Part Mark requirements of the Aerospace Industry. Database storage of the mark data and format allows fast and accurate part marking. The inkjet printer, the AS-1000H, a touch screen POS computer with the APS 2000 software, and a handheld barcode scanner are combined with the required cables, air and power conditioning equipment on our MC-1000 inkjet cart to create the HMP-1520.

The ECM-3000C is a computer controlled marking system capable of marking cylindrical and linear connector products on the same platform. Cylindrical products such as connector bodies or back shells are set on the spindle and rotated while the inkjet printer is triggered. Linear products are positioned on a T-slot table. The print head is rotated 90 degrees with an adapter fitting and is then traversed over the top of the linear device to make the mark. All print head movement and positioning is controlled from the ECS connector marking software. Print head position and rotary speed data are entered on the touch screen or recalled from the database. Message data for the printer can be typed manually, entered with a barcode scanner, or recalled from the database. The computer supplied with the system is a self contained 15" Touch screen running Windows XPtm.
