Custom Model 50P Automatic Numbering Machine

When Space is Tight: Numberall's Custom Model 50 Solves a Big Challenge with Thin Wheels At Numberall
We thrive on a challenge. While our standard marking equipment is renowned for its durability and precision, sometimes a customer’s unique application demands a solution that’s anything but standard. We recently tackled one such intricate project, demonstrating our nearly century of expertise in custom design.
The Challenge: Big Characters in a Small Space
A customer approached us with a critical need for a Model 50 automatic numbering head. Their product’s stamping area presented a significant limitation: incredibly tight clearance. They needed to mark their product with a character size larger than what standard wheels could offer, yet the overall dimensions of the marking head had to be drastically reduced to fit within their confined stamping space. This seemed like a contradiction, but it was exactly the kind of puzzle Numberall loves to solve.

The Numberall Solution: Precision Engineering in Record Time
Our engineering team immediately went to work, leveraging Numberall’s 95 years of experience in metal marking innovation. Here’s how we achieved the impossible:
- Modified Frame with Milled Clearance: The core of the solution involved a significant modification to the Model 50’s robust frame. We precisely milled away material to create crucial clearance, ensuring the head would fit perfectly into the customer’s limited product stamping area.
- Custom Thinner Springs: To further accommodate the reduced space, we engineered and integrated custom springs that provided the necessary tension while maintaining the required clearance within the redesigned frame.
- Custom Engraved Thinner Wheels with Large Characters: This was arguably the most innovative part. We designed and manufactured custom engraved wheels that were significantly thinner than our standard wheels. Despite their reduced thickness, we maintained the customer’s desired larger character size, ensuring clear and legible impressions. This required meticulous precision in the engraving process to ensure durability and readability.
The result? A truly unique Model 50 that perfectly fit the customer’s specifications. What’s more, our dedicated team completed this complex custom build in less than two weeks, delivering it on time and exceeding our customer’s expectations. This rapid turnaround highlights our commitment to efficiency and customer satisfaction, even on the most demanding projects.
