Gravotech Know How

Gravotech originates from Gravograph who created the first small Pantograph in 1938 and Technifor who invented permanent marking with Dot Peen technology in 1984 joining forces together with Vision Numeric, software publisher of 3D CAD-CAM software.

This merge gives us a unique know-how to offer you the best service.  

Since then, we carried on innovating with

  • Gravograph laser technology introduction in 1995  
  • Technifor scribing technology in 1999  
  • 2D and font reading
  • Industry 4.0 tools with our international Group Support Centre (GSC) in 2017 

All these at your service to provide a complete solution that best fits your needs.

Engraving dashboard

Engraving Dashboard

Always in search for innovation, Gravotech has naturally embraced the industrialization 4.0 transformation by developing along with the leaders of the Internet of Things its own communication platform to support the Expression of Things.

This new solution makes it possible to manage a machine fleet whether on a manufacturing line or within a retail network.  

This brings benefit to all users

  • For a technical and maintenance profile, we can set up specific alerts for any parameter. This helps to schedule preventive maintenance operations and monitor the change of wear and spare parts to secure your operations continuity, moving toward predictive maintenance.
  • For marketing profiles, this provides a flow of data to follow-up the fleet activity and optimize throughput of the machine fleet to assess and justify return on investment. It also provides useful information of the machine use and features (most frequently used features or engraved items) and helps to finetune and improve the customer experience.
  • For the direct users of our solutions, they can monitor the daily activities of our solutions and finetune their capacity load according to specific events and seasons. They may set up personalized alerts as well.  

All this on one dashboard and automatically updated through the cloud.
