How do Metal Marking Impact Presses Work?
Durable Mecco's impact presses, available as both manual and pneumatic models, generate force via the compression and release of an impact spring. High-volume, repetitive indent marking applications are best handled with the use of impact presses which achieve a very short cycle time that cannot be met with any other marking method.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Ted Strother of King Electronics found that an impact is superior to gradual pressing in its application. "Durable Mecco was able to recommend an impact press for our assembly operation to insert one part into another without deforming the part. We used to perform this application by hand but the press provides a quick, easy, repeatable solution."
Customer Driven One Stop Shop
As marking and identification application requirements have expanded, so to have Durable Mecco's capabilities and offerings. "A lot of customers use us as a one stop shop and come to us first for marking issues," says Clem Malinowski, General Manager at Durable Mecco.
