The Art of Waterjet Cutting: Creating Dimensional Signs https://precisioncuttingservice.com/waterjet-cutting-creating-dimensional-signs/ Tue, 26 Sep 2023 14:18:00 +0000 https://precisioncuttingservice.com/?p=2357 Dimensional signs, also known as 3D signs, use individually cut letters, logos and other graphics, either mounted directly on a wall or on a base material, to attract the attention of passersby. Typically found in businesses, they also perform well in schools, hospitals and athletic facilities.

Waterjet cutting technology improved how dimensional signs are made because it added a high degree of precision, versatility, speed and economy to the manufacturing process. It can cut through virtually any material with ease in sizes as small or smaller than a dime, or as large or larger than a full-size SUV, or in any size in between, and in thicknesses up to eight inches.

Metal Fabrication Dimensional signs

When used dimensional sign production, it typically cuts high-density foam, acrylic, aluminum and/or stainless steel to create the letters and graphics needed. Guided by industry specific software, is uses a highly pressurized and fine stream of cold water to achieve tolerances of .003.” This precision enables it to cut both intricate and simple designs with edges that are always smooth and that never require post finishing, like sanding, filing or polishing. Moreover, because waterjet technology uses cold water, there are never any heat affected areas that might change the chemical composition of the material, nor does it ever melt, distort or scar the parts it cuts.

Precision Cutting Service is one of the nation’s leading waterjet cutting firms. Founded in 1994, it specializes in creating dimensional signs for architects, marketing firms, sign companies, engineers and businesses throughout the United States. For more than 29 years, it has helped thousands of customers boost the efficiency and effectiveness of their operations and has developed a reputation for creating the industry’s best dimensional signs.

Creating Dimensional Signs with Waterjet Cutting

Once a sign design has been finalized and the metal to be used has been specified, Precision Cutting Service loads the design into the computers that drive their cutting nozzles. One of the efficiencies Precision Cutting Service provides is that their system nests the parts to be cut more tightly than most so that material waste and labor are kept to a minimum.

We accept CAD and PDF files, vector art, blueprints and technical drawing, rough sketches and even an actual part you would like us to reproduce. Detailed proofs are always furnished for approval before production begins.

From there, Precision Cutting’s inhouse fabrication team takes over to powder coat and assemble the sign before delivering it to on-site, third party installers.
