how make stamp pad for Trodat multicolour

Post by npala » Mon 12 Oct , 2009 17:37 pm

Hi,

who knows how I make stamp pad for Trodat stamp (like this: https://www.trodat-romania.ro/noutati.htm ).
I have some blank stamp pad - I don`t know how I cam make space between colours islands (with Versalaser): I make a vectorial cut, or I set to rasert engrave?
Stamp pad have 3-4mm foam and ~1mm other material (probable rubber).

thanks for help .

You will probably have to have the backsweep option to take away the debris created cuting the rubber.

As Martin says What model of Laser do you have and what power.

Which driver are you using?

I'm pretty sure you would have to raster the material away

I believe that the VERSALasers have a native resolution of 1000 DPI (dots per inch), so you should be looking to create an image of that resolution, to get the best quality raster output

ULS call it PPI.

Pulses Per Inch.
