Integrated dot peen marking machine - Tempo

The Tempo marking machine is part of the Inline.series range designed for integrated use.  It uses dot peen technology (deformation of the material by a succession of impacts) to guarantee permanent marking.
 
Designed for integrated use, the Tempo marking machine is easy to integrate into a production line. Its compact marking head with detachable cables has 3 fixing faces and can be used at 360° (multi-position). The controller has a front-mounting system for panel mounting, as well as a universal VESA 100 mount on the back to adapt to the widest possible range of brackets. The machine requires just one source of energy to operate: electricity. 
 
Tempo is perfectly suited to the productivity requirements of integration, as it has been designed to operate continuously, i.e. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In terms of performance, it can mark up to 3 characters per second. Its aluminium frame and integrated protective bellows give it the robustness needed for intensive use.
 
To exchange data with an internal network or control the machine using a field network (Ethernet IP or Profinet), Tempo has a network connection via its Ethernet ports. This also allows you to benefit from the switch function.
 
Tempo is also equipped with a 16-channel card that can be fully configured in a dedicated module accessible in administrator mode. The large number of inputs/outputs not only saves users money on the overall budget, but also saves time during commissioning.
 
To ensure ease of use, the Tempo controller is equipped with a 10" touch screen and intuitive control software for creating marking files and much more. It is possible to manage the course of the impact unit to adapt it as closely as possible to the shape of the parts: limiting the size of the marking window or adding path points, for example, to avoid obstacles. The software is also capable of managing local and global variables, and providing real-time information thanks to its maintenance module.
Several types of user profile are available: administrator, supervisor and operator. They are used to control the various accesses to the machine: file creation, machine settings, maintenance, etc. Individual accounts with badge or password access can also be created.
For even more functionality, a range of additional licences (production tracker, marking authorisation control, etc.) can be added.
Finally, the controller can be connected to a code reader to fill in variables, open files or reread markings.
 
There are a wide range of marking options: alphanumeric, timestamping (shift changes, dates, etc.), logo, Datamatrix, etc., and they can be applied to parts of all shapes and sizes.
