We use a Trotec Speedy 400 combined CO2 & Fibre Optic for laser cutting plastic up to 12mm thick and etching text and graphics onto plastic and metal parts. The working range is X-1000 , Y-600.
The Fibre Optic facility enables aluminium parts to be engraved material removal.
Graphics are from taken our Coreldraw system eliminating the need for artwork thereby offering a lower cost, quicker alternative to silk screen printing.
This is a versatile machine and because it has a built-in extraction system it can be used it to laser cut plastic, wood and cardboard facilitating low cost model making and rapid prototyping.
Design Tips:
Laser etching of adhesive plastic labels is a trouble free, low cost alternative to silk screen printing.
