Our rubber stamp option is revolutionizing the rubber stamp industry. With special electronics
and a special system driver, it is possible to engrave rubber stamps with a profile and cut out
the stamp in one easy step. The machine produces a taper on each character so that the base
of the character is wider than the top printing surface giving greater stability when stamping. If
trying to engrave stamps without this option, the letters will not have a profile, be very thin and
flimsy, and will collapse while stamping them. If you do not have this option and would like to
add it to your system, please contact one of our engineers in the sales department for current
pricing. All laser systems can be upgraded to have this extraordinary feature.
In the above example, only one pass is necessary to achieve a deeply engraved rubber stamp.
When cutting out the rubber stamp, we recommend using a very low PPI setting. This setting
spreads the laser pulses far enough apart that they just touch at the edges. The result is a
perforated cut that allows the rubber stamp to remain attached to the entire sheet but easily
removed by simply tearing it off. The advantage to this is that the possibility of distortion or
melting while cutting is virtually eliminated and the entire sheet of rubber stamps can be
removed from the machine at one time instead of having to pick them up one by one. Some
blends of rubber produce a powdery residue when engraved. Using compressed air and
blowing off the residue usually will clean the rubber effectively, but please clean the rubber
outside of the laser system.
