SIC Marking’s permanent, direct part marking-based traceability systems deliver item-level traceability that improve inventory management, batch control, quality control and error registration. SIC Marking develops custom traceability systems for aerospace components often made of aluminum, titanium and stainless steel. For instance, e8 c151 z-a has been specifically designed for this industry in order to deliver a constant high quality mark thanks to SIC's Autosensing system.

Case history #2 :Dot peen application
Aerospace traceability with Data Matrix on turbine parts. Due to evolving aerospace standards in terms of traceability, aerospace companies should be able to mark all strategic parts with a mark respecting the latest requirements which includes conformed 2D marking. As such, the greater majority of aerospace parts should be marked with a specific Data Matrix code. This code must be created to respond to precise quality criteria.
- Customer needs
To answer to the high diversity of shapes and size of aerospace part industry, the proposed solution is a flexible 4 axis structure. In addition, to guarantee the quality of 2D code, the system includes an automatic vision module which checks the Data Matrix immediately after the marking cycle. With this method, all codes marked are checked, and operators are immediately informed of any quality deviations using the Windows interface which drives the system. This association of several axes and the “mark/verify” module allows the system to be flexible and robust in terms of 2D marking. In addition, counters are integrated to help operators during installation of a part (system adjustment).
