Engraving and labeling plastic

With LPKF circuit board plotters, plastics and soft metals in 2½ dimensions can also be drilled and milled. With the LPKF ProtoMat S42 plastic and aluminium materials can be engraved on the surface. Other LPKF circuit board plotters with Z axis control can create very smooth 2½ D surfaces because of a spindle speed of at least 60,000 rpm.


LPKF circuit board plotters are ideal tools for engraving applications. Name plates, rate plates, brass door labels, sandwiched plastic labels, and any other form of flat engraving can be easily accomplished. For engraving and signmaking with LPKF Protomat machines any software with HP-GL output can be used. Also LPKF offers a wide variety of plug&play software for circuit board manufacturing.
