Engraving and Labeling aluminium

Engraving plastics and aluminum (2½ D) - Sign making

LPKF circuit board plotters can engrave, drill mounting holes, mill front panels, or create several other types of structures and lines. Depending on the thickness of the board material, it may take several passes to mill down to the desired depth. As a rule of thumb, the maximum milling depth of any end mill tool corresponds to approximately half of that particular tool’s diameter.

The tool library of the LPKF BoardMaster software supports the processing of aluminum and other soft metals. The optimal feed rate and spindle speed for a long life-cycle of any LPKF tool, as well as outstanding milling results, are already included in the standard tool profiles stored in BoardMaster.
