What’s new?
Your markings must work. Always.
Whether it’s a serial number on the crankshaft, a DMC code on the die-cast housing or a batch number on the folding carton — if the marking doesn’t last or isn’t legible, you’ve got a problem. We’ll sort it out.
For over 85 years, we’ve been developing marking solutions that fit your process — not the other way round. 80% of our products are custom-made to meet your specific requirements.

Marking solutions for industry
Does this sound familiar?
The marking isn’t sticking.
Illegible after heat treatment. Disappeared after cleaning. No longer scannable after two years of use. If your marking doesn’t last as long as the material, you need a different method — not a new label.
We don’t know which method is the right one.
Embossing? Needle embossing? Laser? Inkjet? There’s a wide range of options, and the differences between them are significant too. We’ll work with you to determine which process is right for your material, production volume and standards – with an open mind. Even if the best solution isn’t one we offer.
We need traceability for our products.
The standard requires it, the customer demands it, and the audit is imminent. DMC codes on every component, verification via camera, documentation in the ERP system. It sounds complex – and it is. But we provide the complete solution from a single source: marking, verification, software.
No standard system is suitable for our component.
Unusual geometry, specialised materials, integration into an existing production line — your component isn’t off-the-shelf. Neither is ours. 80% of our products are custom-made. From the specifications right through to commissioning at your site.
The manufacturer’s spare parts are too expensive and take too long to arrive.
Your packaging machine needs a new format part. The OEM is quoting a six-week lead time and a price that’s hard to swallow. We manufacture format parts, machine parts and blister dies to your drawings or samples — to OEM quality, quickly and at fair prices.
We need a marking device, but not a separate machine.
The quantity is too small, the investment too high, or you only need it once. No problem. We can mark your parts on a contract basis – according to your specifications, at short notice and with precision. Embossing, needle marking or laser marking.
Marking solutions for industry
Why have customers been ordering from us for decades?
We offer impartial advice.
No sales pressure, no “we’ll just tweak it to fit”. If the best solution for you lies elsewhere, we’ll tell you. Honestly.
We think alongside you.
Before your tool goes into production, we check whether your specifications work — and highlight any potential problems at an early stage. This saves you from costly corrections.
We deliver what we promise.
Less than 1% of orders result in complaints. Not because we deliver too little — but because we know exactly what we’re doing. For 85 years.
“You are a reliable partner in every respect. What we particularly appreciate is your willingness to offer bespoke solutions. We look forward to the next 20 years.”

Marking solutions for industry
Industry solutions
Mechanical engineering
Every part is made of a different material and has a different shape — yet every mark must be spot on.
Whether it’s a serial number on the housing or a logo on a bespoke item: we supply marking systems that can keep pace with the diversity of your parts — from manual hand stamps to CNC-integrated marking systems.
Automotive
Traceability is not an option — it is a requirement. From the raw component to the finished vehicle.
Our integrated marking systems mark crankshafts, camshafts and die-cast housings directly during series production — with DMC codes, camera verification and ERP integration. Reliable performance even at high cycle rates.
Aerospace Engineering
Permanent legibility without damaging the surface – a contradiction? Not with the right process.
We understand the stringent requirements of the aerospace industry and can find a marking process that achieves both: clear identification for decades without compromising material integrity.
Metallurgical industry
The wrong alloy in the wrong component — that must not happen. Clear batch marking prevents costly mix-ups.
Whether applied manually to the raw billet or fully automatically on the production line: we supply marking systems that remain reliably legible even under harsh conditions.
Pharmacy / Chemistry
Batch number, expiry date, serialisation — in the pharmaceutical industry, labelling is not a mere detail, but a legal requirement.
We supply coding tools and hot-stamping devices for your existing packaging machines, format components in OEM quality, and, with the FlexiTab, our own tablet presses for R&D. Everything from a single source — all compliant with standards.
Medical technology
Every implant, every instrument and every single-use product must be clearly identifiable — permanently, sterilisation-resistant and machine-readable.
We mark medical device components using laser or dot peen marking: UDI-compliant, residue-free and as small as the component requires. Even on titanium, ceramics and surgical stainless steel.
Quality that makes a difference!
Our product catalogues
Marking of metal, plastic and wood
From hand stamps to CNC-integrated laser systems. Embossing, dot peen marking, laser or inkjet — whatever your material and process require.
Marking of cardboard boxes and blister packs
Coding tools and hot-stamping equipment for your existing packaging line. No need to change machines — we manufacture solutions tailored precisely to your system.
R&D tableting presses
Consistent results from the very first tablet. Fully customisable tableting cycles for R&D, galenics and small-scale production runs. Developed entirely in Solingen.
Form parts, machine parts, blister punches
Spare parts, machine components and blister packaging dies in OEM quality — made to your drawings or samples. Faster and more cost-effective than going through the OEM.
Custom machines
Your component isn’t standard – and neither is your system. We design and build bespoke marking systems. From the specifications right through to commissioning.
Traceability
Marking, verification, software and ERP integration, all from a single source. So you know where every component has been and what has happened to it.
Talk to someone who understands your problem.
Tell me about your application — the material, the quantity, and the environment. I’ll tell you which process is best suited. And if we don’t have the best solution, I’ll let you know that too.

Our services
Contract marking
If your own marking solution is too complex, too expensive or the quantities too small, we also offer contract marking services. Whether embossing, needling or lasering, we mark your tools according to your specifications, cost-effectively and at short notice.
Consultancy
It is important to us that your problem is solved and that you no longer have to worry about it yourself. That is why we focus on providing honest, competent and objective advice.
Drawings
We would be happy to create a 2D or 3D drawing of your components or convert your drawing data into another format.
