POWER OF ATTORNEY
   I, Michael R. Kenison, hereby authorize and designate each of John A. Way,
 Jason Frankman, W. Morgan Burns, Mark D. Pihlstrom, Ashley Dorman and Amra Hoso
 signing singly, as my true and lawful attorney-in-fact to:
              (1)	prepare and execute for and on my behalf, in my capacity as
 an officer and/or director of Proto Labs, Inc. (the "Company"), a Form ID and
 Forms 3, 4 and 5 in accordance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange
 Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and the rules and regulations promulgated
 thereunder and other forms or reports on my behalf as may be required to be
 filed in connection with my ownership, acquisition, or disposition of
 securities of the Company, including Form 144;
              (2)	do and perform any and all acts for and on my behalf that may
 be necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such Form ID, Form 3, 4
 or 5 or Form 144, and any amendments to any of the foregoing, and timely file
 any such form with the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange
 or similar authority, and the National Association of Securities Dealers; and
              (3)	take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection
 with the foregoing which, in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may be to
 my benefit, in my best interest, or legally required of me, it being
 understood that the statements executed by such attorney-in-fact on my behalf
 pursuant to this Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall contain
 such terms and conditions as such attorney-in-fact may approve in such
 attorney-in-fact's discretion.
       I hereby further grant to each such attorney-in-fact full power and
 authority to do and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever requisite,
 necessary, or proper to be done in the exercise of any of the rights and
 powers herein granted, as fully to all intents and purposes as I might or
 could do if personally present, with full power of substitution or revocation,
 hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney-in-fact, or such
 attorney-in-fact's substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do or cause to be
 done by virtue of this Power of Attorney and the rights and powers herein
 granted.  I hereby acknowledge that the foregoing attorneys-in-fact, in
 serving in such capacity at my request, are not assuming, nor is the Company
 assuming, any of my responsibilities to comply with Section 16 of the Exchange
 Act or Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
 Act").
       This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until I am
no longer required to file Form ID or Forms 3, 4 and 5 or Form 144 with respect
 to my holdings of and transactions in securities issued by the Company, unless
 earlier revoked by me in a signed writing delivered to the foregoing
 attorneys-in-fact.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such attorney-in-
fact hereafter ceases to be at least one of the following: (i) an employee of
 the Company, (ii) a partner of Faegre Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP or (iii)
 an employee of Faegre Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP, then this Power of Attorney
 shall be automatically revoked solely as to such individual, immediately upon
 such cessation, without any further action on my part.
       I hereby revoke all previous Powers of Attorney that have been granted by
 me in connection with my reporting obligations, if any, under Section 16 of
 the Exchange Act and Rule 144 under the Securities Act with respect to my
 holdings of and transactions in securities issued by the Company.
       IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have caused this Power of Attorney to be duly
 executed as of this 28th day of June, 2021.

/s/ Michael R. Kenison
