New DE-3 DGSHAPE
desktop engraver with
optional centre vice.
The DE-3 enables businesses to capitalise on
this key trend as an intuitive and intelligent
engraving solution.
Safe and robust for retailers to use in-store
and portable and quiet enough for home-
based businesses to offer online unique
gifts and awards.
For industrial labelling and product marking
applications, the DE-3’s variable data
engraving technology makes it simple to
personalise nameplates, tools and other
industrial applications.
The new DE-3 is an evolution of the
highly-acclaimed EGX-350 and features a
range of intelligent enhancements to make
operation easier than ever before, including
the introduction of a laser-pointer, which
helps set up the origin point and previews
the engraving area. ‘A cornerstone of all
DGSHAPE machines’, Mr Bito said, ‘is their
ease of use. Operation is as simple as
pressing a button. DGSHAPE prides itself
on the concept of the “Open System.”
This open architecture offers the flexibility
of using design software and tooling that
engraving professionals are already
familiar with.’
For increased production flexibility in any
environment, with Ethernet connectivity the
DE-3 can be connected via USB or LAN.
Other key enhancements include updated
nose cone technology for higher quality
engraving on uneven material, data buffer
for offline engraving, and new bundled
software: Dr. Engrave Plus. With advanced
features such as AI and EPS file support,
levelling and drilling functions, and variable
data engraving, Dr. Engrave Plus is a design
software that can create new artwork or take
existing files from popular design software
packages to output to the DE-3 for a true
out-of-the-box solution.
