MDM1000 DM Dot Peen 2D Data Matrix Metal Tag Embosser

The MDM1000 DM is a manual feed dot peen engraver built to produce 2D Data Matrix barcode metal tags, adding scannable, database-linked identification on top of standard text and graphics marking. Where PVC or Mylar barcode tags wear out and need periodic replacement, the MDM1000 DM's metal tags are built to hold up for the long term, cutting down on replacement cost and identification errors from worn labels.

Manual feed puts the operator in direct control of loading and positioning each tag, making it a strong fit for lower-volume runs, prototyping, or applications where tag layout and data change frequently between jobs. An LCD edit function lets operators make on-the-fly adjustments directly at the machine rather than returning to a computer for every change.

At 200 DPI resolution and 50 dots per second, the MDM1000 DM produces legible, durable Data Matrix codes on aluminum, copper, and brass tags, with text, logos, and codes rotatable at 90°, 180°, or 270° for tag orientation. Powertag Lite software is included for creating and managing tag layouts and barcode data, and the unit connects to Windows XP, Vista, or 7 systems for full production control. For continuous, high-volume production, the automatic MDM2000 DM is also available.
