1. Adaptation EMS-2 Engraver

The engraving unit was specifically designed for getting adapted to the EMS-2, other
plotters will not be able to carry the unit.
The main purpose of the engraving unit is the
engraving of plastic signs. Respective double
sided material is available through local
suppliers. As an alternative, pre-cut plastic
material in different sizes is available through us,
please refer to accessories.

The use of lubrication and cooling fluid is not
suggested at all, as the vacuum cleaner EVC
cannot handle any fluid.

Note: Please use the engraving needles
supplied with the system only. Any other brand
will possibly lower the engraving result, as
we will not accept any quality claim.

Important Notice: Please read the General Safety Rules carefully and follow them, as
the manufacturer shall under no circumstances be liable for damage or any
personal injury caused by not following the Safety Rules and Instructions.
