DO MARKS MADE BY ETCH-O-MATIC MEET MIL.
SPEC'S?
Yes! Marks
made by the Etch-O-Matic meet ALL Military, Commercial Aircraft,
NASA, U.S. Government, USAF, U.S. NAVY, Atomic Energy Commission and all
known Industrial Specifications.
DO MARKS MADE BY ETCH-O-MATIC CAUSE
"STRESS" IN METAL?
NO! The reason
that the Aircraft Industry and the Military use
Electro-chemical marking is because the Marks DO NOT CAUSE ANY STRESS IN THE METAL being
marked.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ETCH-O-MATIC MARKS AND OTHERS?
Marks made by
Etch-O-Matic Are Exactly Like Marks made by even a $10,000 Etcher
In
99% of the cases. On some Rare Exotic Metals You may want an
"Expensive" unit
But
in Almost All cases you Do NOT Need it. The main difference in
Electro-chemical
Marking
is the "Dwell Time" (time in seconds it takes to Etch the Mark
and the Depth
of
the Mark which is .0001" to .006"). The Expensive Etchers
Mark in less time (about
1
to 4 Seconds Faster) then Etch-O-Matic and in some cases .003"
Deeper. If an average of
2 to 3 Seconds per Mark makes a difference with you than spend the money
and buy
an expensive etcher (or buy Two Etch-O-Matic's and place them side by side
so that
the operator is loading or unloading one while the other is etching.)
