Garbsen, March 2008 – The LPKF MultiCut is a powerful laser cutting system for manufacturing microparts to a professional standard. This system can be used to cut any contours in a range of materials from 30 µm to 2 mm thick. With an accuracy of ±2 µm, reproducible quality is guaranteed every time.

Garbsen, March 2008 – The LPKF-LDS Method produces electronic circuits directly on three-dimensional injection-moulded plastic parts. The laser process allows fast and flexible design changes, and can produce more precise structures than conventional MID techniques.
