OVERVIEW

Professional Electrochemical Marking System for Stainless Steel

The Walter SURFOX Smart Pro Marking Kit (54B081) is a comprehensive solution designed to expand the capabilities of your existing SURFOX weld cleaning machines. This kit provides everything required to permanently mark or etch stainless steel surfaces with high-definition clarity. Unlike traditional mechanical engraving or adhesive labels, electrochemical marking modifies the surface of the metal itself, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion, heat, and chemicals.

At the heart of the system is a stand-alone thermal printer that operates independently of a PC during the printing process. Users can design their stencils—including complex company logos, UPC codes, QR codes, and technical specifications—using the included software, save them to a USB stick, and plug the stick directly into the printer for instant stencil generation. This feature is particularly valuable in industrial environments where bringing a computer to the shop floor is impractical.

The kit is engineered for versatility, offering two distinct finishing modes when paired with a SURFOX machine. Using AC mode with the included SURFOX-M electrolyte creates a permanent black oxide mark on the stainless steel surface without altering the surface relief. Alternatively, using DC mode with the SURFOX-E electrolyte produces a white etched finish, slightly removing material for a textured look. This dual capability makes the 54B081 kit an essential accessory for fabricators requiring traceability, branding, or instructional labeling on their stainless steel products.

Compatibility: This marking kit is universally compatible with the entire range of Walter SURFOX electrochemical cleaning machines, making it a seamless addition to your current equipment lineup.

FAQ

No, the printer is a stand-alone unit. You only need a computer to design the stencil and save it to a USB stick. You can then plug the USB stick into the printer to print anywhere in the shop.

Marking (AC mode) creates a black oxide layer on the surface without removing metal, ideal for high-contrast readability. Etching (DC mode) removes a small amount of metal to create a white, textured finish.

Yes, the Walter 54B081 Marking Kit is compatible with every machine in the SURFOX line.

The kit uses a thermal stencil paper roll for creating stencils, SURFOX-M electrolyte for black marking, and SURFOX-E electrolyte for white etching.

Yes, the included software allows you to import and print custom images, logos, and text.

When done correctly with the SURFOX system, electrochemical marking maintains the passivation of the stainless steel, ensuring corrosion resistance is preserved.

The SURFOX system and this marking kit are primarily designed and optimized for stainless steel applications.

The thermal printer creates disposable stencils for one-time or limited use. However, the kit is also compatible with permanent stencils if you choose to source them separately.
