Air Scribe Bearing

Case Study: Air Scribe Bearing

This case study highlights the use of the IM-C air scribe stepper for marking hard steel parts. The objective was to achieve precise, durable circular text markings while ensuring a cost-effective solution compared to laser marking. The system utilizes a ball screw drive with high-torque stepper motors and a diamond scribe for clear and permanent markings.
