The MARKATOR MV5 ZE 100 XL and 101 XL are the central "brains" of the high-performance MV5 series dot peen marking systems. In modern industrial manufacturing, permanent part traceability is essential. These controllers provide the necessary digital infrastructure to create deep, clear, and durable markings on various materials, from hardened steel to plastic.

Intuitive Control and Large Display

The "XL" series is distinguished by its large, high-resolution color display, which offers a significant advantage over standard industrial controllers. Operators can see a precise graphical preview of the marking layout directly on the screen, reducing setup errors. The intuitive menu-driven software allows for the quick creation of marking programs without the need for an external PC, though PC connectivity remains a standard option for complex data integration.

Advanced Data Management

Permanent marking often requires more than just static text. The ZE 100 XL / 101 XL excels at handling dynamic content. It can automatically generate sequential serial numbers, real-time date and time stamps, and shift codes. Crucially for Industry 4.0, these units support the creation of high-density 2D codes (Data Matrix), which can store large amounts of information in a very small footprint on the component surface.

Key Features

• Robust Industrial Design: Housed in a durable enclosure designed to withstand the dust and vibrations of a production floor.
• High Processing Speed: Ensures that the marking head moves with maximum efficiency, minimizing cycle times.
• Versatile Interfaces: Connect a standard USB keyboard for easy data entry, or use a barcode scanner to automatically load marking programs based on work orders.
• Multi-Language Support: The software interface can be switched to various languages to support global manufacturing teams.
• Password Protection: Multi-level user access ensures that marking templates cannot be modified by unauthorized personnel.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Industry: Marking VIN numbers, engine components, and safety-critical parts.
• Mechanical Engineering: Permanent identification of nameplates, tools, and heavy-duty machinery components.
• Aerospace: Precise, low-stress marking for high-value turbine parts and structural elements.
• Medical Technology: Small-scale UDI (Unique Device Identification) marking on surgical instruments.
