Digitization funding for laser technology.

Digitization funding from the federal and state governments also made it possible for modern manufacturing technologies such as laser technology to be taken into account at the Handwerkskammer of South Westphalia. For example, a wide variety of materials such as solid and veneered wood but also metal are laser engraved, and acrylic or plastics are laser cut and engraved. Optimally, a laser system was sought that can process many different materials and is easy to handle.

As part of a comprehensive training in the field of C-techniques, the laser is a useful addition. Trotec Laser is a manufacturer that keeps its word, which is something we have not always experienced in the laser market.

Flexible laser solution.

It was through getting to know each other personally at a training conference in NRW that Trotec Laser was approached. The Speedy 400 flexx quickly turned out to be the optimal product to complement the training technology. With its two laser sources (CO2 and fiber laser) in one device, the laser offers a maximum of processing possibilities in a manageable footprint.


Getting a gift certificate for laser materials right at the time of purchase is a great way to start testing materials & lasers extensively.
