Prototyping!
Do you wonder if such a high quality
Circuit Board Plotter will fit your
budget?
LPKF can offer the solution for
efficient, environmentally-friendly
and cost-effective prototyping.

LPKF has developed a full featured and

extremely precise Circuit Board Plotter. This
system makes PCB prototypes in house fast
and easy. All this at a price that is surprisingly
inexpensive.
Applications
! All single- and double sided analog and
digital PCBs on FR3, FR4 or G10
material.
! High density circuits with 4 mils (0.1 mm)
tracks and 8 mils (0.2 mm) separation.
! Drilling, insulation engraving and board
contour routing.
! Engraving of aluminum front panels,
plastic signs and labels.
! Milling of solder mask foils.
! Engraving of photo films.
Easy-To-Use-Software
The streamlined Windows™ software
supplied with the LPKF ProtoMat® C30/S is
extremely easy to use and comes with a
Front-to-Back Program Wizard to cut the
learning curve. It accepts Gerber, DXF,
Excellon and HP-GL files generated by any
CAD system. This is the same data sent to
your production board house. You do not
have to produce special data to make your
prototypes.

Solid Construction
®
The Circuit Board Plotter LPKF ProtoMat
C30/S is extremely rigid and accurate with its
cast aluminum design. The ProtoMat® C30/S
has precise positioning and produces superior
milling and drilling quality of prototype boards.
The repetition accuracy of 0.2 mils (5µm) is
unsurpassed in this class of equipment. You
do not need photo-plotting or chemical etching
for your in-house PCB prototype.
Excellent Value
