Scribe marking

Terex Coventry has installed two Technifor XF 510Sr scribe marking systems to automatically provide product identification on the range of Genie scissor lifts produced at its facilities.

As well as improving the product quality the systems are said to provide a reliable and robust replacement for a manual marking method that was fraught with potential problems including health and safety concerns.

Manufacturing engineer, Mick McKean says: "We did consider percussion indent marking technology but noise constraints narrowed the selection to scribe marking, which is very clean and virtually silent in operation."
