TABLE II.   Marking methods - Continued

(This table is given only as a guide.  These suggested methods may not meet the needs of your application.)

NOTES:

1.   Potential effects on the item to be marked should be weighed in selecting the marking method.

2.   The Joint Marking Qualification Working Group (JMQWG)**, under the sponsorship of the Government Electronics and Information Association, provides a common set of IUID 2D Data Matrix mark qualification test and report data available for unrestricted

use at https://acc.dau.mil/CommunityBrowser.aspx?id=30743.  The goal of this venture is to coordinate a consortium approach towards performing, publishing, and sharing non- proprietary information for the following areas:

a.   IUID Marking Methods (dot peen, laser/chem etch, direct ink, label, etc)

b.   Material Types & Finishes (80% common to most of Industry)

c.   Environmental Criteria (80% common to most of Industry or use worst case)

*   y (recommended) and N (not recommended) denotes protocol implementation consideration.
