Device and method for marking the surface of a spherical object while rotating the spherical object in any direction about its center

摘要

A device and method for marking a spherical golf ball component, comprising: at least one rotation support; at least one spherical golf ball component having a center and an outer surface; wherein each spherical golf ball component is mountable on the rotation support such that the spherical golf ball component is rotatable in any direction about its center; and at least one marking arm that marks the outer surface while the spherical golf ball component is rotating. At least one marking arm may be motionless while marking the spherical golf ball component, or the marking arm may be motionless at least temporarily while marking the spherical golf ball component, or the marking arm may be movable to mark the outer surface.
