Advantages of the Super Etch

  • It is small in size, but can produce plates up to 12” x 12”
  • Because of the small bath size, the Super Etch uses less acid and thereby lowers operating costs
  • Side by side acid and rinse tanks make operation easy
  • Super easy installation – just connect to a plug and water and you are ready to etch

The Super Etch will automatically etch with either a spray head or twin counter rotating paddle system, sizes up to 16″ x 16″ (stationary), or 12″ x 12″ with the optional rotary work holder.
