This extreme large format solid glass panel was UV printed with translucency making it work as a light box with LED back lighting. Glass is about 8x8ft in room looks small as it goes wall to wall but in reality its very big peace of glass, black ink back printing it makes it look very upscale. LaserCutZ provides glass manufacturing, glass digital printing and glass installation services. This glass sign installed in gym in Long Island
In this projects LaserCutZ did a color UV printing directly onto a ash wood shelves. Printed artwork is a bunch of random colored lines forming a pattern, this job could of been done with laser and then color filled for durability but client wanted to try fully digital printing application. Results came out very impressive. Texture some what reminds us Coach custom skate board project that we did few years ago.
LaserCutZ is not only about lasers! We have other machines such as CNC mills, in case this project its 5-axis CNC which was used to customize existing retail display cabinets. We used CNC with single 1.5″ end mill bid to expend sliding slot of the drawer. CNC produces perfect, sharp cuts on wood, those of course can be done with hand router but with machine work results are much more precise and consistent form parts to part.
Chef knife fiber laser engraved with meat brand logo as a corporate gift for event in NYC. LaserCutZ has state of the art lasers in various wave lengths capable to do exceptional engraving on any substreight. Knife and silverware engraving is one of most popular personalized marketing tools used by retail vendors in NYC.
Exploring new possibilities we started to experiment with sewing and stitching as we do lots of fabric laser cutting of patterns this seams logical. In this experiment we reversed engineered Mercedes roadster shifter knob leather pouch. It took quite bit of revisions as original leather was stretched over time so new patterns traced from original part did not much shifter ring. At the end we got very good fit of pattern that we can stitch and stretch. Sample photo shows test cut and sewed in suede fabric. Next we will do the same in leather. We will also add laser printed pattern on leather same as we did for Lamborghini project as this add extra nice looks. Though current mod was swapped from black to red color which looks fairly aggressive on carbon fiber interior.
We believe sharing of progress is good thing to do so we posting pasterns here so any one can use them (for not commercial use)
Patterns provided are DXF file in metric (mm) units. Those are designed for laser cutting but can be cut by hand and stretching loops can be sliced with xacto knife, though we only tried cutting with laser as thats what we do every day. Note file is universal for both sides so same file needs to be mirrored (flipped) for a second part. We made everything as one part instead of two as in original as it seams easier to have one file. For this reason please watch direction and orientation of stretch pins they need to much location of loops when you sew parts together. We used Juki quilting machine to stitch this together. Center joint offset about 10mm, then flattening stitches are about 3-4mm to the side (foot center follow joint line and needle in far left or far right form it, stitched form back do bobbin thread is exposed)
Nothing looks more impressive then gigantic prints, but it is NYC and every one is used to a big bill bards, display screens and everything hedge, sol lets take it to next level with extra large format on glass. Glass was always a luxury substraight, it looks gorgeous, glossy and flashy, glass is nothing like cheap vinyl print sticking on the wall. When it comes to large size glass artwork prints it adds extreme prestige and special look to hospitality venue. LaserCutZ x SunStudio has largest glass printer in NYC and tri state region. Lets face it, even Duggal would not print 10ft glass surfaces. Photo shows little sneak pick on NJ facility with 11×8 ft glass panel printed for a luxury restaurant in Brooklyn. LaserCutZ prints directly onto glass surfaces, we also offer cistom glass fabrication and installation services.
Aluminum is one of the hardest material to weld but it is NOT a problem for LaserCutZ team. This overflow tan was cut from aluminum sheet metal on our fiber laser cutting machine, then it was TIG welded to shape with observation window and hose connectors and filling cup. Reservoir window is very nice as you can see both level of fluid and its color (quality). Very often we are asked to fabricate aluminum and stainless liquid tanks for various industries such as pharmaceutical, aerospace and automotive. LaserCutZ can produce any type of metal cutting and welding projects, fast turnaround and low volume prototype is our specialty.
Bystronic manufactures most popular CO2 metal cutting lasers, those are industrial machines that are costy and require lots of maintenance. As laser machine shows its age more parts needs to be replaced and some parts are no longer manufactured or extremely expansive. LaserCutZ has capability to design aftermarket retrofit parts to be used in various industrial machines. Our laser repair services are not just limited to fixing machines as we can fully design and build new machine from scratch. For this Bystronic capasitive sensor head we kept original metal body and designed and integrated our own electronic pcb board. Such retrofit allowed to reduce cost of part replacement and also improved quality of part as original Bystronic had manufacturing defects and was failing all the time for client.
Carbon steel medal is laser cut for this year Halloween for fab shop in Brooklyn. This metal medal was cut with out state of the art fiber laser metal cutting machine. LaserCutZ can fabricate any type of art project in different media including metal, plastic wood, glass and more
Lots of 6061 aluminum sheets have been fiber laser cut into small 2×2″ squares that will be used for art installation in NYC. 6061 is most popular aluminum alloy as it shows light weight properties along with fairly decent strength.
