Gerber Dimension 200 - Mat Milling

System Preparation and Use 75
Table Mats
The Dimension 200 table mats provide accurate depth control and
minimize the need for sacrificial material. They are installed at
the factory but are milled on-site after installation to provide a
perfectly flat surface.
A grid that aids alignment can also be engraved into the mats.
Files containing data for both operations are supplied with ART
Path, and bits for both operations are supplied in the tool kit.
Note: Gerber recommends using the Chip Removal System and pressure
foot for this procedure.
