stone etching laser system

Introducing

Kern's new Z12 Monument Etching System w/ HSE technology offers a greater level of detail than has ever before been available to the monument etching industry. The strong solid steel frame and extra high gantry is designed to handle heavy stones up to 12" thick. A wrap around gantry and roller bed table makes loading and unloading of material quick and easy.

Increase your shop productivity with the ability to etch monuments at speeds up to 150 ips. For example a square foot of etching on granite can be completed in under 4 minutes!

Two height variations are available on the Z12 system, a standard 36" table height as well as a 26" table height. The new lower profile table and pass through design allows for easier integration of existing conveyor systems.


 

Vacuum Table

A vacuum table is available for cutting materials that give off fumes and/or debris. The light weight table can be easily lifted onto the roller bed and locked into position. Two 4" ports at the back of the table remove the fumes and debris by venting them to the outside or to a fume extractor.
