Quality control is a fundamental aspect in the production of any product or component. When it comes to testing the corrosion resistance of materials, a useful tool is the automatic machine for engraving specimens, such as the SASMM539 model from SAMA Tools®.
Salt spray corrosion test
To carry out salt spray corrosion tests, it is necessary to prepare the sample with specific incisions indicated by the standard. These tests reproduce, in accelerated mode, the damage caused by atmospheric agents such as dew, salt, etc. Performed in the laboratory, they allow the aging conditions that occur over months or years to be reproduced in a short time.
On the other hand, scribe marks which are performed manually on samples lack consistency and repeatability , thereby affecting the test results and producing different outcomes. Moreover, the manual preparation of multiple specimens can be time-consuming and costly.

Advantages of the automatic scribe marks machine
To overcome these challenges, it is necessary to implement an automated scribe marks machine. These machines ensure consistent tracking, streamline processes, and guarantee flawless edges thanks to their rotating tip.
As a result, the use of this automated machine brings significant benefits in terms of quality assurance and operational efficiency. It provides enhanced accuracy and reproducibility in its results, improves overall operational effectiveness, and promotes a work environment characterized by heightened safety and cleanliness.
We are seeing a growing interest in this tool from companies. Recently, a renowned research center, known for its specialization in various industrial sectors, including energy, food and manufacturing, has successfully adopted the automatic specimen engraving machine branded SAMA Tools®.
