Letters, logos and walls. In-house.

Sign makers use CO2 lasers to cut acrylic and wood, fiber lasers to cut and mark metal, handheld laser welders for stainless letters and wall printers to put graphics straight onto walls.

The job

Sign and advertising companies produce a wide mix of work: acrylic and wood letters, metal signs and channel letters, engraved plaques and large graphics on walls. Outsourcing each step adds lead time and cost.

Lasers in a sign shop

  • CO2 engraver: cuts acrylic, wood, MDF and foam board; engraves plaques and awards.
  • Fiber laser cutter: cuts stainless, aluminium and steel letters and panels.
  • Handheld laser welder: joins thin stainless returns on channel letters with a clean seam.
  • Vertical wall printer: prints murals and brand graphics directly on walls, glass and tiles.

Where to start

Most shops start with a CO2 engraver, then add metal capability as demand grows. Tell us what you produce most and we will suggest the first machine that pays for itself.
