We currently use both machines side by side in our lab now and LPKF is by far the better machine. Both are comparable systems to each other but the T-Tech machine always seems to have problems of some sort and their tech support department isn�t ve

I used a clam-shell type for years before switching to the LPKF. The ZelPrint LT300 looks a lot like the LPKF one. I prefer the LPKF or ZelPrint style because they are capable of getting better (more accurate and more consistent) prints when compared
