The MDM1000 DM is a manual-feed dot peen engraver that produces 2D Data Matrix barcode metal tags. Data Matrix codes let a scanner pull detailed record data from a small tag, and metal tags outlast PVC or Mylar barcode labels that wear out and need replacing.
Manual feed means the operator loads and positions each tag by hand, which suits lower-volume runs, prototyping, and jobs where tag layouts change often. An LCD edit function lets operators adjust tag data at the machine instead of returning to a computer. It stamps logos, Windows fonts, and special characters of all sizes, including country-specific characters and symbols, on aluminum, copper, and brass.
The MDM1000 DM can be operated from a PC, a mainframe (RS232 communication port), or offline with a keyboard. For continuous, high-volume production, the fully automatic MDM2000 DM is also available through Cancard.

How is the MDM1000 DM different from the MDM2000 DM?
The MDM1000 DM is manual feed, suited to lower-volume or varied jobs. The MDM2000 DM is fully automatic for continuous, high-volume production.
Why use Data Matrix metal tags instead of PVC or Mylar labels?
Data Matrix codes let a scanner retrieve detailed data from a small tag, and metal tags hold up much longer than PVC or Mylar labels, which wear out and need replacing.
What metals can the MDM1000 DM mark?
Aluminum, copper, and brass.
