Saint-Gobain Introduces Laser Engraving for Hose Assemblies
New marking system provides clear identification and improved traceability
BRIDGEWATER, N.J., Dec. 9, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics has upgraded its capabilities for identifying hose assemblies with a new state-of-the art laser engraving system. The system allows Saint-Gobain to engrave the metal crimp collar or tag of all hose assemblies, piping and components, providing customers with easy identification and traceability. Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics can engrave crimp collars on hose assemblies ranging from 1/4" to 4" in size, in varying fonts and sizes. The system leaves a clear, easy-to-read mark that can be customized upon request.
"We are very excited to offer this capability to our customers," says George Carpenter, Business Development Manager for Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics. "The new system complements our SANISeal® identification system, giving us the ability to provide clearly identifiable assemblies in a variety of materials."
Laser marking provides end users with a variety of valuable information, including:
- Manufacturer's name/brand
- Hose size
- Maximum working pressure
- Serial number
- Date of manufacture
- Telephone number/website
- Logo
- Compliance information
- Service/application
