Harmonic Dot Markers

PRODUCT CODE: T-Series and D-Series
Inspection Markers

APV Dot Markers are used primarily for process verification, to mark product installation points, and pass/fail marks. On a tire plant assembly line, as cured tires pass on a conveyor belt, they are marked with a dot. These dots are used to determine the high point of a tire, thereby allowing rim assembly plants optimum synchronization when mounting the tire.

The ink of these dot markers was formulated to evaporate quickly. Each marker produces approximately 5000 dots and are available in 3 sizes: small, standard and extra large.

• Standard Dot Markers: - makes a dot between 10 and 13mm diameter *
  
• Extra Large Dot Markers: - makes a dot between 17 and 23mm diameter *
  
• NEW – Small Dot Markers: - makes a dot between 5 and 8mm diameter *

(*Depends on the down pressure applied to the tip on the substrate being marked.)

Important - Shake the dot marker thoroughly before use. The gentlest pressure will provide a round dot, while heavier pressure produces a wider dot. Do not try to write with them or the tip may loosen and too much ink will be used. If dot markers are installed in a balancing/uniformity machine, a water-based marker is preferred because solvent-based marker tips may dry up.
