I note they also refer to them as "time stamp machines", but I'm really only familiar with clocking machine.

• Date, time and program will be memorized for more than two years without mains connection.
• PERFECT 2005 can be adjusted through its easy-to-use keyboard with only 3 keys.
• PERFECT 2005 can be delivered in a desktop or wall mounted version.
• Heater unit can be fitted as an option.

Above reference a bit 'iffy', but time registration is the term for time recording on time sheets or other means:

Galleon Atomic Clock Time Synchronisation
Galleon Atomic Clock Time Synchronisation, Atomic clock time PC time ... heating systems and time registration equipment, is supplied by Galleon Systems. ...
www.galleon.eu.com/atomic-clock.htm

Isgus Perfect 2020 - Time Clock DepotTime Clock Depot sells and repairs time clocks and time stamps anywhere North ... machine number can identify the locality of the time registration. ...

Thus instead of clocking on and off, in a formal text you can say time registration or time recording,
and take your pick of the answers for the time registration clock, timestamp machine/clock, etc., etc.

clocking in

This is the term used in the UK. You clock in, and at the end of your shift you repeat the procedure to clock out. Process involves sliding your card - usually a 4 x 3 ins paper card - down into the registration machine and removing it again.
Peer comment(s):

neutral writeaway : naturally 'clocking in' is the English term, and not just in the UK. but the question is what's a tikklok.
