Mechanical and pneumatic handheld stamping machines
Handheld stamping units are typically used for center-punching, control stamping and common marking jobs, either hand-operated or as built-in devices. The simple operation offers flexible application possibilities, even in hard to reach places.
Quick and simple exchange of center-punching inserts and stamping tools make these handheld stamping devices indispensable tools.

Mechanical and Pneumatic Handheld Stamping Tools
Our high-quality handheld stamping tools offer versatile applications for trade and industry. Whether for center punching, inspection stamping, or marking—BORRIES tools are designed for easy operation and flexible use.
The quick and easy replacement of center punch inserts and stamping tools enables efficient work. In this article, you’ll learn everything you need to know about the differences between mechanical and pneumatic handheld stamping tools and how to choose the right tool for your needs.
What is the difference between mechanical and pneumatic handheld stamping tools?
Mechanical and pneumatic handheld stamping tools differ in how they work and their applications.
Mechanical handheld stamping tools operate using only manual force. They are not well-suited for fast, continuous stamping, as this can lead to user fatigue. However, they are perfect for markings that need to be applied only sporadically and not at high frequency.
Pneumatic handheld stamping tools operate with compressed air and, in contrast, require only minimal pressure to trigger the stamp, making them particularly easy to use. They are recoil-free and offer infinitely adjustable marking power, allowing you to vary the penetration depth and thus the impression strength as needed (depending on the material to be marked). These devices can be used efficiently with different marking tools.
