<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">We have had a Trotec speedy for the past 5 years. it is 800x500. It has not missed a beat and is used continually every day. Got a very solid work out in remote learning by our technician
who cut and posted kids projects (model size!)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">We use mainly illustrator or coral draw with it. or kids design in fusion then we put into illustrator.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Only problem- trotec are very expensive (like $50,000)- but it has been so good and reliable. Has good power so can easily cut up to 10mm acrylic and 6mm ply. Have not pushed it much
past that. We have it serviced once a year and have had to once replace the lens because it got cracked.
