peen marking / engraving - micro features
Peen marking/engraving for parts identification is a critical element in industries such as aviation, defence and medical
The mark quality is important to quantify: if the marking is too shallow the identification would wear off and if the peen marking is too deep this may create an ingress point for corrosion.
Difficult to quantify, each dot might be of a different depth, meaning that all the dots need to be measured. Scribe marks are equally tricky, because of variability and burrs that can be created.
The 4DInspec surface micro defect system gives a rapid, accurate assessment of marking depth, producing a quantifiable result.
Watch our short video and see how easy it is to measure machined part marks and defects using the 4DInspec with its user friendly software:
