Has anyone see this machine in use or better yet is anyone using it? Just stumbled across it last night and thought it looked interesting.

Thanks,
Mike

Its diamond drag only - not rotary (spinning cutter)
I suppose its a good solution depending on the machines cost, if you are in the giftware or promotional branding arena where scratch engraving can take the place of cerdec . You will need some clamp system for diamond drag engraving whereas with cerdec you dont - so there is a downside.
Materials that laser well wont diamond drag well and vice versa so combining the 2 on one object doesnt seem all that useful.
Would be great if it were a true rotary , i can see many applications for that - think cutting with bevels either fully or partially and you could also do 3d carving and combine with lasering if you could continously vary z axis - lots of other applications there...!

Totally agree with the rotary vs diamond drag. I'm kinda surprised that no one has made that yet.
