Illuminated Sign Tray Fabrication

Our skilled fabrication department shows from concept to creation, an illuminated aluminium composite sign tray manufacturing process, in-house at NE Plastics.
Step 1: Importing a CAD file onto ArtCAM software. Reversing the logo to fit in line with finished ACP (aluminium composite) tray.
Step 2: Loading the ACP 2440x1220 sheet onto the CNC router.
Step 3: Our CNC picks the right tool bit for the job and moves into position.
Step 4: After v-grooving the returns, the CNC begins to mill out the company letters and logo.
Step 5: By hand, the return folds are moved into position and then taped together to provide initial stability.
Step 6: Positioning Perspex acrylic to be glued later for illumination.
Step 7: Gluing aluminium angle.
Step 8: Moving the aluminium angle into the corners to strengthen the sign tray. Clamping down the angle to hold it in place.
Step 9: Inspecting the finished article.
Step 10: Our previously finished inner tray is ready with LED lights included, for display on our trade counter - the two are then fitted together.

[@maciejtomaszewski8766]

I gave up. I can’t make correct project to make that kind of box.. corners are not aligned after bending. I use 3mm router bit and 135 degree grooving bit. I dont know what do I have to do with my projekt Please help. Could you share your project in pdf file?

[@smaxoxams]

Drawing a cut file is simple. But instead having a join on side I'm doing a join in corner on a edge. 3mm router bit and 90 degree v dibond folding tool ( or 6mm ball nose router bit) . More info on priv if you are still interested . [e-mail]

[@imdjlight]

Thank for sharing this video the back box where you put the LED is a little smaller ? So the two boxes can fit inside each other. Thank you for your answer

[@neplasticsltd2417]

+DJ LIGHT Our pleasure. Yes the back box is smaller, usually we allow for 15mm on the length and width and 10mm for depth. This can vary for more bespoke jobs though.

[@thomasudoba7077]

[@Linneydenise]

Can I do this at home? I need someone in Los Angeles California to make me a sign for my hawaiian shave ice business...can your company help me with making a blade sign with a snow cone the lights up?

[@neplasticsltd2417]

+Linneydenise Thank you for your message. If you had the right tooling and equipment this is possible, however it would be better to contact a local signmaker to produce and install. We do not currently operate in America and therefore would not be able to assist you with this project. We appreciate the interest and hope you have a great day!

[@Linneydenise]

Thank you for your time, I will!

[@imdjlight]
