LPKF ProtoMat S100 Applications

Production of RF and microwave designs

The use of RF milling tools provide steep, sharp cutting edges for track side walls, as well as minimum and uniform material removal on all standard RF and microwave PTFE-based substrates such as RT/duroid.

Processing of sensitive surfaces

The non-contact machining-depth limiter senses the material surface and controls the penetration depth of the tool into the substrate. Because it avoids contact with the material surface is perfect for machining soft and flexible materials with sensitive surfaces.

3D technology

With its motorized Z-axis, the LPKF ProtoMat S100 is also ideal for machining front panels and housings. Even assembled circuit boards can be easily milled, reworked and depaneled.

Multilayer technology

The S100 comes with a set pin system for proper positioning of double sided and multilayer boards. Even more convenient is the optional camera system, using fiducials for automatic artwork alignment.
