Zeus® marking technique

The zeus® product range for marking technology offers an economical and efficient option for marking parts on the lathe. With these innovative marking systems it is possible to replace municipal processing phases, thus significantly reducing the cost of setup and processing times. The possibilities for using the technique are numerous and range from the marking of pieces with production data, batch numbers and item codes to the formation of the brand.


Hommel + Keller has also developed application-specific tool systems in the marking technology product segment. The zeus® MR 1 and zeus® MRS 1 tool series allow the machining of different workpiece diameters. MC 1 and MCC 1 are instead designed for continuous machining of the same diameter. Regardless of whether they are dependent or independent of the workpiece diameter, the user in any case benefits from an efficient product solution for marking parts with maximum precision.
