"The Spring Loaded Tool is performing EXCEPTIONALLY". We are engraving 1018 carbon steel using the Spring Loaded Tool, Tough Tip Tool and a Medium Spring, running at the suggested 3000 RPM at 13ipm and are very pleased with how much time it is saving and the results are great." Tony - March 2010
"I just wanted to share with you what a huge time saver this is for us [Mini Spring Loaded Engraving Tool].
It only adds 20-30 seconds per part (depending on the amount of engraving)
and the quality and accuracy is excellent. Before, we were laser etching them
which added extra handling time, setup and fixturing, and consistent quality
was always an issue." "You guys made me look good to upper
management!" - February, 2010
"You guys have a great product
[Spring Loaded Engraving Tool] and your
service is second to none. Everybody loves the look of the new engraving on
our products". - May 2009
"We have seen a 5x increase in life
[using Conical Ballnose Engraving
Tool] and are running at 3x faster federate than the tools we were using before.
At the end of the week this week, we have 576 parts on one of your
[Conical Ballnose] tools, with 2 lines of text, in 12l14 steel, where we were having trouble getting 100 parts with another tool. Keep in mind this is at
3x feed rate of the other tool. The tool still is cutting well, so we are leaving it in to see how long we can let it go.
We are actually going to start using these engravers on some other parts we make as well, so
I'll be placing another order in the not too distant future" - March 2009

"Got the tool [Spring Loaded Engraving Tool] and did the job in time.
I've immediately put it to use on a bunch of other projects. Instead of sending parts out to be laser marked I'm using the tool to do the marking
here - it will pay for itself in just a few weeks". Cary, Optical
Structures - February 2009

"I had the opportunity to run a test in aluminum with the
Conical Ball Nose Engraving Tool.
Again, I was a bit skeptical but now I am nothing but impressed.
Previous run times with my old pyramidal engraving tool on one particular job was in excess of 30 minutes. I ran the same test with the conical ball nose and my run time was 4 minutes and 46 seconds.
You might as well say 1/10 of the time was required. I could probably reduce that time even further but my machine was running at the maximum feed rate it was capable of. The tenfold increase in productivity will make a
substantial impact in our shop throughput and bottom line. Thanks again for a great product & support." LRM Technologies, LLC.
