Six Benefits of Using Waterjet Cutting to Produce Custom Metal Signs for Business

Well-designed custom cut metal signs grab attention. They work just as well outside as they do inside and they’re perfect for campus identification, building entrances, reception areas, meeting rooms, showrooms and more. Easy to install, durable, and maintenance-free, they serve as excellent advertising investments for businesses of all types.

When choosing a custom metal sign-maker, it is important to consider cutting technique, material, the precision and accuracy required for the project’s components, budget, time constraints, and, most importantly, the fabrication capabilities of the vendor.

Read on to learn more about how we use waterjet cutting technology to deliver precisely cut, high-quality metal signs for various applications.

Dimensional Sign
No Material or Size Constraints
Our high-pressure waterjets effortlessly and accurately cut through any metal, unlike plasma or laser cutting systems that have numerous limitations. Equipped with PC-driven, robotically controlled cutting nozzles operating at pressures up to 60,000 psi, our advanced waterjet cutting machines make precise, smooth cuts with superior edge quality for materials measuring up to 8″ thick or more. We can create intricate details on geometrically complex sign components with dimensions up to 12’ in length and 6’ in width while achieving tolerances up to ± .003.” Not only can we produce signs in the material you specify, but we also have a large inventory of different metals, in the event you need assistance with material selection.

Get It Right the First Time
Waterjet cutting is a cold cutting process, so there are never any heat-affected zones or distortions, such as melting, warping, or discoloration. It also eliminates the possibility of weakening or deformation that can occur with plasma or torch cutting. Our waterjet cutting systems produce clean cuts the first time and never require secondary finishing like sanding or polishing. This in turn speeds up manufacturing and saves time.

Cost Saving
Waterjet cutting is not just precise and fast. It also helps our clients save money. Using our advanced part nesting techniques, we minimize material waste, keeping prices economical. Plus, as we’ve mentioned earlier, our clients always avoid the expense of post finishing.

3D Signs
Nationwide, many signs are small, one-dimensional, and unimaginative. We help our clients break away from the mundane by creating compelling, custom dimensional signs that boost brand identity and deliver unique and powerful messages. Multi-layered metal signs, also known as 3D signs, distinguish your business in ways that simple flat signs can never do, especially when powder coated in various colors. Depending on the requirement, our team can, for example, fabricate large and striking three-dimensional letters that pop out from a contrasting backplate, or create distinctive foreground and background effects by stacking several layers of various images on top of one another to instantly capture the attention of passersby. In short, our only limitation is your imagination.

Environmentally Friendly
Other cutting techniques produce chemically contaminated waste or potentially harmful particles, but because waterjet cutting only uses water and never creates shavings or dust, it is the most environmentally friendly and safest metal cutting method there is.

Flexible
Precision Cutting Service works effectively with numerous design formats. We can accept a sketch on a napkin, a technical illustration or drawing, a blueprint with exact dimensions, and/or a PDF or CAD file. We can also re-engineer a sign (including enlarging, reducing, or reshaping) from a sign or other physical artwork you want to modify, replace or upgrade.
