Automotive Chassis Supplier Orders 4 Scribing Machines After Sample Test — A Case Study
The customer, an automotive chassis supplier, needed a scribing machine to mark identification numbers on luxury car chassis parts. They sent us a sample to compare with their European brand scribers.
We installed a standard benchtop scribing machine in our new factory and made the first attempt using default settings. We filmed the process and sent the raw video to the customer immediately.
Within hours of confirming the price, they drew up a purchase contract for four machines and made payment.
With over a decade of experience in automotive identification marking, we have become a trusted partner to many automobile manufacturers. Contact us for scribing solutions.
