Owning your own CNC machine
has never been this easy or fun!
The Phlatprinter MKII© (patent pending) is the second generation of the Phlatprinter and is specially designed for cutting foam and other sheet media with even more speed, accuracy, and power than the original Phlatprinter.
The Phlatprinter MK II is designed with a belt drive system on all three axis. This allows for speeds of 200 + inches per minute. The Phlatprinter MKII sports a powerful Rotozip and flex shaft which will maximizes the potential for cutting materials. The MKII can cut material up to 27" wide, up to 2" thick, and unlimited length. Although the Phlatprinter MK II was designed to cut foam sheet material, Phlat Club Members are quickly finding that with the power of the MK II it does so much more!
