A new model of automatic ammunition mark printing system was developed. It can print mark on shell with diameter 76~155 mm. Based on analysis of shell shape and printing condition requirements, the overall structure of the system was developed, and several key technical problems such as feeding shell, holding shell, printing mechanism, and synchronizer were studied and solved. The pneumatic and PLC control system were designed. The practical operation showed that the system is working well and of high reliability.
