Workshop Electrolytic Marking Machine

A bench mounted electrolytic marking machine in a simple to use package. Versatile design and accessories allow the marking of a wide variety of components. Creates a permanent, high definition mark on metals using AC & DC power settings.

Robust design ensures that the marking system is suitable for workshop enviroments. Fully digital timing and voltage control systems ensure excellent repeatability.

Applications Include:

  • Component identification.
  • Component traceability.
  • 2D DataMatrix code marking.
  • Logo design marking & brand identification.


Wide range of materials

The electrolytic marking process works on almost any electro-conductive material. Commonly used to mark stainless steel, steel, aluminium and carbide, the EtchMasterUSB™ Digital Etching Unit guarantees a high quality of finish regardless of surface hardness.

Both output voltage and waveform are selectable, enabling the operator to establish the best mark possible, including white marks on various materials.

Electrolytic marking does not deform the surface of the material, making it suitable for use in applications where deformation marking may exceed tight tolerances on dimensions, as in shims and feeler gauges.

Stencils and Accessories

Cancard Marking provides the following range of stencils for use with electro-chemical marking applications.

  • Waxed Paper - ideal for short runs of simple marks.
  • Photographic - ideal for long runs and more complex marks
  • Print on Demand - short run

Cancard Marking can also provide stencil printers that can produce both standard and premium stencils (allowing for the production of 2D DataMatrix code stencils).

Also available from Cancard Marking are all the consumables neccessary for electro chemical parts marking; Graphite electrodes, stencil pads, cleaner/inhibitor solution, marking plates and all other accessories.
