Marktronic BenchScribe 4000
The scribe marker BenchScribe is a powerful, compact scribing machine that produces continuous, clean lines on flat surfaces and large-diameter components. This benchtop machine is specifically designed for marking small to medium quantities in workshop and manufacturing environments and offers exceptionally high marking quality.
The clear, precise line engraving makes the BenchScribe the preferred choice for particularly fine markings – such as serial numbers, logos, technical data or VIN marking in the automotive industry. The continuous line creates a marking image with maximum legibility that looks significantly higher quality than the dot markings of other systems.
The BenchScribe really comes into its own when marking steel, aluminium, stainless steel or coated surfaces. It delivers uniform, permanent marking and is also an extremely economical and safe alternative to lasers, as no laser class, extraction technology or special protective environment is required.
Intuitive programming via the 4000 control system or Traceable-IT
The BenchScribe can be programmed quickly and conveniently – depending on your requirements:
- via the integrated Röltgen 4000 control system, or
- via the PC-based Traceable-IT software
Layouts can be created, adapted and saved without the need for additional software knowledge.
