LPKF ProtoMat® S103

Top-of-the-line high-performance PCB prototyping for all applications
General
         
LPKF ProtoMat S103

The ProtoMat S103 is one of the top of the line LPKF circuit board plotters. The extensively equipped system is suitable for all application areas including multilayer and RF – in FR4 18/18 Cu material it can achieve PCB track widths up to 100 μm. The high rotation speed and precision ensures production of the latest generation of PCBs. The pneumatic non-contact working depth limiter allows substrates with delicate surfaces to be machined. The ProtoMat S103 is an indispensable tool for any prototype or small batch production. Ease-of-use and utmost reliability are the basis for cost-effective and high-quality production.


2.5-dimensional operation with Z-axis control

The sophisticated Z-axis drive makes the ProtoMat S103 perfect for finishing front panels and housings as well as depth milling microwave PCBs. Even machining populated PCBs is no problem at all.


100,000 rpm spindle motor

The ProtoMat S103 is extremely fast and accurate with a spindle speed of 100,000 rpm, a max. travel speed of 150 mm/s and a resolution of 0.5 μm. This ensures the accuracy required for drilling and milling ultra fine structures – especially for high-end applications in the RF and microwave field.

Dispensing

The built-in dispenser applies solder paste onto the substrates fully automatically with minimum data preparation.

RF and microwave PCB

The ProtoMat S103 meets the highest standards in geometry and accuracy for structuring RF- and microwave prototypes. Special carbide tools produce straight sidewalls and reduce the penetration depth in the substrate.

Contour routing and cut-outs

The S103 also routes complex shapes and cut-outs, or depanelizes populated circuit boards, housing parts or front panels.
