Upgrade The Way of Making 3D Channel Letters
The advent of 3D printing technology has revolutionized the signage industry, offering transformative benefits compared to conventional methods such as CNC engraving, injection molding, laser cutting, metal bending, etc. By eliminating the limitations of traditional machinery, 3D sign printers unlock unprecedented design flexibility, cost efficiency, space efficiency, operating convenience and sustainability. Now it’s time to upgrade the way of making 3D channel letters, logos and signages.
Automatic Manufacturing
3D sign printing is an automatic way of manufacturing, it helps us make 3D channel letters, company logos, indoor and outdoor signages automatically, meanwhile, it makes 3D signages one after one without manual operation, it’s totally automatic. During the printing, why not have a cup of coffee or a cup of tea to relax and enjoy life? Or we can think about something more important in our current works or future lives. In one word, it can offer more spare time and more freedom to our lives and works, as a result, it is more energy efficient for human beings.
Lower Labor Cost
In traditional signage industry, more workers are needed because there are more production steps, such as CAD designing, board cutting, metal bending, welding, engraving, etc. In 3D printing signage industry, less workers are needed because it is a completely automatic and innovative way. On average, one worker can manage 10 sign printers, in this case, it reduces the labor cost sharply.
Longer Working Capacity
The 3D sign printers can print channel letters 24 hours a day, in other words, it can be a nonstop manufacturing if you require. Comparing to 8 hours’ work per day in traditional sign industry, it can upmostly make use of the precious time for us.
Lower Material Cost
Let’s take letter A for example, with size 272 x 300 x 30mm, including both the sides and the face, it will need 37 meters of 3D printing filament, which equals 111 grams of 3D printing filament. This will cost us US$1.3 only for the meterial cost, a lot cheaper than acrylic, metal or other material.
Additive Manufacturing Mode
The traditional signage is a subtractive manufacturing mode, while the 3D printed signage is an additive manufacturing mode, layer by layer without cutting or wasting. It means that 3D sign printing won’t waste any material, as a result, it is eco friendly and cost effective.
Less Space Required
In the traditional manufacturing of 3D channel letters, different machines are required, for instance, laser cutting machine, engraving machine, bending machine, welding machine, etc, it means that they will occupy a lot of space, we understand that the working space is very expensive especially in big cities. In order to save the space cost, our engineers designed a special double layer shelf for our 3D sign printers, to save space is to save money.
Higher Working Efficiency
If we have more 3D sign printers, then we have higher working efficiency. Imagine, it takes 1 hour to print a 3D channel letter when we have one 3D sign printer, so it will take 100 hours to print 100 letters one after one, but if we have 100 sets of 3D sign printers and make them work simultaneously, this is called a 3D printing farm in some countries, then it will take 1 hour only to print 100 channel letters, it sounds pretty cool, right?
More Versatile
In the traditional manufacturing of 3D channel letters, different parts need different machines to complete. However, 3D sign printer can print the entire 3D channel letter, including the letter front, the letter side, and the letter back if you like. No other machine is necessary.
More Colors on The Front
In the traditional signage industry such as acrylic signage, it is usually single color only for the front, but the 3D sign printer can make multiple colors available for the front of 3D channel letters.
More Styles on The Front
In the traditional signage industry such as acrylic signage, it is usually plain finish only for the front, but the 3D sign printer can make more styles for the front of 3D channel letters.
More Styles on The Side
More shapes are available on the side of 3D printed signages, including straight side, beveled side, curved side, etc.
More Luminous Options
More luminous options are available, frontlit, half-frontlit, sidelit, half-sidelit, backlit, combination of frontlit and sidelit, combination of frontlit and backlit.
More Durable for Outdoor Use
Iroga’s 3D printing filament is high temperature resistant, low temperature resistant, waterproof, and UV resistant, perfect for long-term outdoor use.
Cleaner Workshop
As mentioned previously, 3D sign printing is an additive manufacturing mode, so there is no material waste, besides, there are not many machines required, as a result, the workshop can always be in clean and tidy status.
In summary, 3D sign printers are not just tools but catalysts for a smarter, greener, and more creative future in signage production. Now it’s time to upgrade the way of making 3D channel letters, 3D illuminated signages, indoor and outdoor signs.
