The choice of marking technology depends on a number of factors, such as material type, required precision, production volume, frequency of use, marking durability, budget or environmental conditions. At Sic Marking, we offer the main marking technologies, such as laser, dot-peen and scribing.

Our experts can advise you on the solution best suited to your specific needs after a detailed analysis of your requirements.

Laser marking is appreciated for its high precision, high speed and ability to mark a wide range of materials (metals, plastics, ceramics) without direct contact, and because it therefore contains no wearing parts. Compared with dot-peen, laser marking delivers finer, more precise markings and real contrast, making content easier to read, while scribing is often used for deeper, more resistant markings.

Dot-peen is suitable for marking various materials such as metals (stainless steel, aluminum), plastics, ceramics and certain composites. It guarantees permanent, wear-resistant marking, ideal for industrial applications.

Scribing offers a smoother, cleaner finish, making it ideal for surfaces where aesthetics are paramount. Unlike dot-peen, which creates visible dots, scribing produces continuous lines, giving a cleaner, more elegant finish.

The scribing marking process is also quieter than dot-peen, making it a more suitable solution for working environments where noise reduction is important.

Finally, scribing is particularly effective for marking hard or treated materials. The scribing stylus exerts a constant pressure that enables deep, durable marking, even on surfaces that are difficult to work on.

Contact us to find out which technology is best suited to your needs.

Yes, our laser and dot-peen marking machines are designed to handle objects of all shapes, including cylindrical parts. They are equipped with suitable rotation and clamping systems to ensure uniform, precise marking on curved surfaces. Laser marking can be combined with the 3D marking option, which enables marking on cylinders without rotating them.

Marking depth can be adjusted according to the technology used and the setting parameters. Laser enables shallow or deeper marking as required, while dot-peen and scribing offer precise depth control to suit different applications.

Yes, our machines are compatible with barcode readers equipped with handhelds, making them easy to integrate into your production processes for optimized tracking and tracing.

Yes! Our technologies, such as laser and dot-peen, guarantee legible marking even after various surface treatments (painting, galvanizing, sandblasting, shot blasting, heat treatment, hot stamping, E-coat, KTL or cataphoresis, machining).

Yes, we offer marking machines capable of handling large parts, such as XXL-BOX, L-MOOV or FIT. Our equipment is designed to maintain high precision and efficiency, even for bulky objects.

You can buy your consumables directly from our after-sales service by filling in the contact form in the after-sales service section.

Our machines are designed for long life, often in excess of 10 years, thanks to high-quality components and robust engineering. Regular maintenance also helps to extend their service life.

Sic Marking machines are covered by a standard 12-month warranty, including repairs for manufacturing defects and initial malfunctions. Laser sources come with a 24-month warranty.

Yes, some wearing parts, such as dot-peen stylus or mechanical guide components, may need to be replaced periodically to maintain optimum machine performance. When using a LASER, suction system filters must be replaced regularly.

2. Choose “Troubleshoot –>­ Advanced options –>­ Startup Settings“ and click the “Restart“ button.

3. When your computer restarts you will see a list of options : Press “F7“ or 7 key on keyboard to select Disable driver signature enforcement.

4. Computer will now restart.

C. Steps to installing e9/e8 driver in windows 10&11:

1. After restarting, Open “Device manager“ you can see “E8 Marking system“ which will be under “Other Devices“, on that do right-click then choose “Update Driver Software“.

2. Click on “Browse my computer for driver software“

3. Choose the path of the Driver (Ex: software folder copied path e9-v1-2.000 —>­ Drivers), Then click on “Include Subfolders” checkbox and then click on “Next”.

4. In windows security pop-up click on “Install this driver anyway” .

Then installation starts and finish.

After closing the window you can see installed “E8 Marking System” under Universal Serial Bus Controllers but still “USB Serial Driver Port” not installed.

5. Right-click on “USB Serial Port” then choose “Update Driver Software”, as shown in the image.

6. Follow the same steps from 6 to 8, the completion of installing driver will finish with the below screen.

After closing the window you can see installed “E8 Marking System” under “Ports” with installed com port number.

Now the computer is ready to communicate with e9/e8 controller through the SIC Tools or Terminal software.

Our machines are made in France, with particular attention paid to the quality of components and technical expertise to guarantee reliable, high-performance equipment.
