Trotec Laser Engraving and Cutting Technology Contact Delrin laser engraving for the production of embossing presses Delrin is used for the production of embossing presses. Embossing presses are used by notaries, companies, engineers and government agencies to add relief embossings, in addition to a signature, in order to protect quality documents from being copied fraudulently. Furthermore, an elegant embossing adds a personal touch to stationery and invitations. Whether it is a logo, home address or something creative, there is no limit to the number of possible applications. What is Delrin? Delrin is a trade name for the material group polyacetal (POM). This material is highly suitable for laser cutting or engraving because it can easily be removed by the laser beam. Contact Us Impressions Embossing seals with Delrin plates swipe Application examples for Delrin Delrin is used in the production of embossing presses. Embossing presses use a positive and a negative relief to emboss paper. The positive relief (male) is created with white letters on a black background and the negative relief (female) is inverted and mirrored. Why should I buy a laser for engraving Delrin? The laser beam is a universal tool for material processing, so there is no need for tool or grinding costs for milling cutters or drills. During processes such as mechanical engraving, materials must often be clamped in place or fixed with a vacuum. This is not necessary in laser processing, which saves time and money.

A good fit between the two forms is important. It is also necessary to ensure that the engraving has the correct depth. The engraving depth should be at least 0.25 mm, but a maximum depth of 0.50 mm must not be exceeded. If the engraving is too shallow, the embossing is barely visible. If the engraving is too deep, the paper may tear. Once determined, the parameters are stored in the materials database of the JobControl® software and can be retrieved at any time. Which text size should be chosen for a perfect result? Text or graphic elements should be at least 0.5 mm or no smaller than a five-point font in size. When using significantly heavier paper grades of 80 g/m², the size of the graphic elements should also be increased. How to prevent the press from cutting through the paper? The problem with seal presses can be that Delrin often has too sharp edges, and the punch thus cuts through the paper. Our tip: Set the laser to be out of focus by around 2 mm (= Z-axis offset by 2 mm) – embossing results remain the same, but the edges become more rounded, and the process is therefore gentler to the paper.
