ISx000 is a modular, industrial-grade CNC cutting and engraving machine that combines versatile applications with high-performance productivity.
ONE ROTARY ENGRAVING MACHINE, MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS

Light or deep engraving, nameplates, batch labeling, drilling, letter cutting, 2.5D milling… The ISx000 is a CNC engraving machine with a wide spectrum of uses while maintaining consistent quality. It enables multiple applications on a single platform, improving efficiency and ensuring production consistency.

MODULAR AND ADAPTABLE

Available in three sizes, two axes drive technologies (IQ or XP), and multiple spindle configurations (top-loading, collet, High Frequency), the ISx000 adapts to space constraints and production objectives. This modularity allows the rotary engraving machine to be configured precisely to requirements, while preserving the robustness and reliability expected in industrial environments.

INDUSTRIAL PERFORMANCE

The ISx000 is designed for production: stability, reliability, and high throughput. With the XP Milling version (1,000 W High Frequency spindle and automatic tool changer), it becomes an industrial cutter, perfectly suited for intensive milling and cutting operations, including metals such as steel and stainless steel, when performance and productivity are the top priorities.
