Ink Marking Machines

(OP)
I Would like to know what is the best Machine for marking product on a production line that is in a dirty invironment, i.e. metalic dust. I currently have ink jet machines with white pigment ink that seems to be too heavy and clogs the nozzel. The color is not an issue, it would need to be able to mark alphanumeric and be non-contact.

RE: Ink Marking Machines

We do a lot of pad printing on our plastic parts.  We also laser mark some of our metallic and plastic parts.  But all this is done is a somewhat clean environment.  Laser marking is a robust way of marking parts.
