Stamps for paper bags
Produce stamps for individual packagings. Ideal for small quantities.
Preparation
Required material
- stamp rubber trodat, AERO+ 5mm, A4
- stamp trodat professional 5212, 116 x 70mm
- various paper bags
Machine used
- Speedy 360
- 120 watts
- 1,5" lens
- Nozzle with small hole diameter
- Aluminum cutting grid table
The stamp rubber can of course also be processed with other laser engravers of the Speedy series.
Step by step

Step 1: Import/create laser file
Create your own design or use our free template. A tip for creating your own design: strong, not too detailed motifs and fonts are best. Avoid too fine lines - a lot of material will be removed, too thin lines can become unstable.

Now send the job to the laser with the settings below.
Print settings:
Dimension | Process mode | Resolution | Cut line |
---|---|---|---|
Professional 5212 or user-defined size 116 x 70 mm | Stamp | 500 dpi | optimized |
Halftone | Shoulders | Others |
---|---|---|
black-white | medium | optimized geometries |

Step 2: Laser process of rubber 5mm
Make the parameter settings. Our suggested parameters may vary depending on the laser machine used and the available laser power.
Insert the laser rubber Aero+ 5 mm into the machine. Make sure that it can no longer slip, as in this process the stamp rubber is vaccuumed off after each engraving pass. A fixation can be achieved by this:
- an extraction system with good extraction performance (Atmos Duo Plus)
- Glueing the rubber plate with adhesive tape
- Use of an adhesive mat (available from Trotec)
Cover the remaining work surface to create vacuum
Laser engraving process - four passes:
Set the "Cut" to "Skip" in the parameter settings. Focus and position the laser, then start the first engraving pass. After engraving, vacuum well the dust on the rubber plate with a vacuum cleaner. Make sure that the rubber does not slip. Now repeat the engraving process three more times.
Note: focus again before each pass (on the new level) and vacuum the stamp plate after each pass.
Laser process - cut:
After the engraving the cut takes place. Activate "Cut CO2"" in the parameter settings and skip "Engrave CO2".
Laser parameters:
Color | Process | Power (%) | Speed (%) | ppi/Hz |
---|---|---|---|---|
Black | Engrave CO2 | 100 | 15 | 1000 ppi |
Red | Cut CO2 | 100 | 0.5 | 1000 Hz |
Passes | Air assist | Z-offset | Direction | Advanced |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | on, maximum air assist | - | top down | optimized quality |
1 | on | - | - | - |
Step 3: Assembly
Remove the laser rubber from the laser device and then clean it with a fine brush and water. After drying, glue the stamp plate onto the stamp.
Stamp a few times on a kitchen paper. Then the stamp is ready for use!

Note: You can use any machine from our Speedy laser engraver series to process the stamp rubber.
Step by step

Step 1: Import/create laser file
You can use the template we have provided or, alternatively, you can create your own design. If you create your own design, we recommend using simple designs and fonts. Using fine lines can cause excess material to be removed, thus causing the design to become unstable. For more information, head to our tips and tricks page.
Send the job to the laser machine using the below settings.
Print settings:
Dimension | Process mode | Resolution | Cut line |
---|---|---|---|
Professional 5212 or user-defined size 116 x 70 mm | Stamp | 500 dpi | Optimised |
Halftone | Shoulders | Others |
---|---|---|
Black-white | Medium | Optimised geometries |

Step 2: Laser process of rubber 5mm
The recommended parameters will vary depending on the laser machine you are using and the available laser power.
Place the laser rubber Aero+ 5mm into the laser machine. It is crucial that the stamp rubber is well secured as it will be vacuumed after each engraving pass. You can ensure the stamp rubber is properly secured by following the below steps:
- Use an extraction system (e.g. Atmos Duo Plus)
- Glue the rubber plate with adhesive tape
- Use an adhesive mat
Ensure that the remaining work surface is covered so that a vacuumed is created.
Laser engraving process - four passes:
Set the "Cut" to "Skip" in the parameter settings. Focus and position the laser and then begin with the first engraving pass. Once the engraving is complete, use a vacuum cleaner to remove the dust from the rubber plate ensuring that the plate does not move. Repeat the engraving process three times making sure you vacuum after each pass.
Note: It is vital that you focus the laser on the new level before commencing each pass.
Laser process - cut:
Activate "Cut CO2" in the parameter settings and skip "Engrave CO2".
Laser parameters:
Colour | Process | Power (%) | Speed (%) | ppi/Hz |
---|---|---|---|---|
Black | Engrave CO2 | 100 | 15 | 1000 ppi |
Red | Cut CO2 | 100 | 0.5 | 1000 Hz |
Passes | Air assist | Z-offset | Direction | Advanced |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | on, maximum air assist | - | top down | optimised quality |
1 | on | - | - | - |
Step 3: Assembly
Once you remove the laser rubber from your machine, clean it with a fine brush and some water. Once it is dry, glue the plate onto the stamp.
Before use, we recommend trialling the stamp several times on kitchen paper.
Inspiration
Enhance and revitalise existing packaging with this unique stamp. Apply your logo to envelopes, paper and carrier bags, cartons - the list is endless. It will be sure to increase visibility of your business, as well as promote your products and services!
Alternative: depth laser engraving with 3 passes
Depth engraving can also be carried out in three engraving passes, as opposed to four, by using a resolution of 1,000 dpi. The higher resolution will result in more material being removed in fewer passes.
It is important to note that the time required for depth engraving is similar to the above mentioned application. This is because the laser needs more time when engraving at a higher resolution.
For depth engraving, simply perform the laser processes as identified above. Use the following print and parameter settings in three engraving passes.
Print settings
Dimension | Process mode | Resolution | Cut line |
---|---|---|---|
Professional 5212 or user-defined size 116 x 70 mm | Stamp | 1000 dpi | optimised |
Halftone | Shoulders | Others |
---|---|---|
black-white | medium | optimised geometries |
Laser parameters:
Colour | Process | Power (%) | Speed (%) | ppi/Hz |
---|---|---|---|---|
Black | Engrave CO2 | 100 | 25 | 1000 ppi |
