Electrolytic
Marking | Overview
Saurer MarkingSolutions has been involved in electrolytic marking for over 30 years and manufactures the marking devices exclusively in Germany. The high production standards and years of experience make it possible to offer high-quality systems for a wide range of applications:
- Electrolytic marking for individual parts
- Electrolytic marking for series parts
- Electrolytic marking for mass production
- Accessories such as electrolytes, stencil printers, stamps and much more.

The process
The process of electrolytic marking is similar to the screen printing process. Instead of paint, a harmless salt solution (electrolyte) and electricity are used. The controlled low current is passed through a stencil onto the workpiece, thus creating a lettering on the component. Electrolytic marking can only be used on electrically conductive materials.
Placing the stencil on your workpiece, adding the electrolyte and the current lead to a controlled oxidation. Electrolytic marking can appear light or dark depending on the power level of the marking device.
Electrolytic marking – result:
The electrolytically produced marking is permanent and captive. The marking is abrasion-resistant, seawater-resistant and does not cause any deformation of the workpiece. Electrolytic marking can also be used on highly sensitive components such as those used in medical technology or in the aerospace industry. Due to the low surface damage of the process, electrolytic marking is also used in the food industry. The process is often used in the production of knives, because after marking, the cutlery can be put in the dishwasher without corroding!
Electrolytic marking | Advantages
- Ultra-fast electrolytic marking
- Marking result as with laser
- High quality marking without burrs
- Suitable for almost all geometries
- Dark & light marking possible
- More cost effective than laser marking
- Abrasion, heat & sea water resistant
- Individual marking | texts, logo, 2D codes, etc.
Electrolytic
marking | Application areas
Electrolytic marking is considered one of the most flexible permanent marking processes. Both flat and cylindrical surfaces can be marked. Customised stamp production enables individual adaptation to your geometries. Whether concave, convex or XXL stamps – you get the right equipment for your application!
Due to the large selection of electrolytes, you get the best possible result even on changing materials.
- Geometries of all kinds - flat, round, concave, convex
- For electrically conductive materials such as stainless steel, titanium, hard metal, etc.
FAQ
We would be happy to present our electrolytic marking equipment to you in person or create free sample markings for you.
The electrolytes we use are in no way toxic. They are a specially developed salt solution.
For electrolytic marking you need the marking device, a carbon stamp, felt, electrolyte, Neutralyt and a short & or long term stencil. You receive the required accessories directly with our original equipment!
The delivery time is usually 5-7 working days.
You are not sure whether a corresponding marking is suitable for your component?
Then use our free sample labelling service. We will create the desired marking directly on your components!
