In an industry where durability, accuracy, and traceability are non-negotiable, REA delivers. Our industrial coding and marking systems are designed to perform in even the harshest steel and metal production environments, offering crystal-clear identification for every component—from steel coils to aluminium plates.
Whether you’re printing on hot billets, tubes, pipes, or parts destined for automotive and aerospace, REA ensures every mark counts.
Why Traceability Matters in Metals
In steel and metal manufacturing, every part plays a critical role in a much larger system. From safety-critical automotive components to structural materials, traceability is vital.
REA’s contact-free, direct part marking technology applies machine-readable codes directly onto metal surfaces, enabling:
-
Complete traceability through the production process
-
Automated quality assurance
-
Real-time data analysis to catch errors before they become costly problems
