Numbering head – Marking head

Manual or press operated number marking heads for marking metal, plastic and many more

Numbering heads are marking tools for many applications in the metal and plastic-processing industry. With a numberer, you can mark high quantities in excellent quality. Due to the construction, our marking heads are extremely durable, even for heavy duty applications.

Our assortment comprises various marking heads. With a standard manual numbering head, various combinations of figures or letters can be indented with one single stroke into the component. These standard manual numberers are also available with a shank for the use in a percussion press. Also for machine processing, automatic numbering heads indent a consecutive number into the working piece. The numbering sequence on standard automatic heads is consecutive when the handle is depressed. Otherwise a constant inscription is marked. Another kind of numbering head has manually adjustable wheels, where every single wheel can be changed by a special handle. This is the most comfortable numbering head, especially, when you have to change the numbering code frequently.

Marking heads can be used either by hand/hammer or in most types of marking machines. These numberers fit in almost any manual percussion press, air-operated press or hydraulic press.
