Creative display: which engraving & cutting applications?
3D letter cutting
Letter cutting, whether using a laser or CNC sign making machine, offers an easy solution for creating eye-catching displays and signs.
This technique is particularly versatile, as it can be applied to a wide range of various materials such as plastic, acrylic, wood and even metal.
Use bicolor plastics and combine your sign making machine engraving and cutting capabilities for a high-end effect.
The resulting products are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, ensuring durability and visibility in various settings.

Backlit signs & displays
Backlit signs are an excellent choice for drawing attention and playing with light to create captivating displays.
These signs are primarily made from acrylic due to its transparency, which allows the light to diffuse beautifully through the material.
This creates an art-like visual effect that enhances the overall impact of the signage.
Nota Bene:
Our sign engraving and cutting software Gravostyle™ features a function that automates the placement of LEDs inside shapes or letters for optimum light rendering.

Indoor signs & POP displays
Indoor signs are generally smaller and thinner than outdoor signs, as they are created by simply using your sign engraving machine to engrave and cut out the engraving material.
These signs can be used to decorate a reception area or counter, or any other sales point, adding a touch of professionalism and aesthetic appeal to the space.
They serve various purposes, such as providing detailed information about products or general information like opening hours and payment methods.
Indoor signs enhance customer experience by making information easily accessible and creating a welcoming atmosphere.

Point of Sale Displays
Point-of-sale displays are simple assemblies of cut materials. They can be created using a simple sign engraving machine.
They serve as effective communication tools for presenting products or services, often featuring engraved information on the display.
Dedicated to restaurants, events, and trade shows, these displays can be easily repositioned and placed on tables, sales counters, store shelves, and more by your employees.

Indoor product displays
Product displays are often made from transparent acrylic without any engraving, designed to highlight the product itself.
Visually similar to glass but more resistant, they are dedicated to presenting the product by holding it in a specific position, showcasing its features and aesthetics.
These displays are particularly advantageous for counters and display cases, notably in jewelry and souvenir stores where visual appeal plays a pivotal role in attracting and captivating customers.

Which alternative materials for display creation?
In addition to the traditional two-layer engraving materials, acrylic, wood and metal, some point-of-sale displays can be made from paper, cardboard or aluminum composite panels.
Paper & cardboard displays
Paper and cardboard are inexpensive materials that can be easily printed on, resulting in a high-end appearance. They are perfect for entry-level, temporary, or light displays.
Paper and cardboard displays are compatible with our laser sign engraving machines, which are quick and easy to set up.
Dibond displays
Aluminum composite panels, commonly known as Dibond, are an excellent choice for both indoor and outdoor visual communication signage.
Lightweight yet durable, this material offers perfect printing quality and is well-suited for screen printing.
However, Dibond cannot be laser cut: It can only be cut using a mechanical CNC sign making machine and engraved with rotary technology.
It is the ideal material for practicing Print & Cut with UV printing.
What are the advanced techniques to fold material with your laser?
Acrylic folding
Bending acrylic with a laser is a slightly more advanced process that involves defocusing the laser beam.
By tracing with a defocused laser, no engraving or cutting marks are left, as the laser sign engraving machine is not powerful enough for cutting. However, it heats the acrylic, causing it to deform under its own weight.
This method provides an aesthetic solution that eliminates the need to assemble cut shapes, especially with transparent acrylic.

Paper and carboard folding
Using a laser is the easiest way to fold paper or cardboard.
Simply draw dotted cutting lines in the software, and start your sign engraving machine; the non-continuous cut will enable easy, clean folding by hand, even over long distances.
Contact an expert
Wooden materials folding
Folding wood is similar to folding paper, using the dotted line principle. However, due to the thickness of the wood, a more complex pattern is needed.
Unlike paper, achieving a 90° angle is not feasible, as it can tear the wood fibers. To create a curved bend, multiple dotted lines must be cut close together.

How to create fully personalized displays with Print&Cut?
Combine two technologies for a Wow effect
Print with a UV printer and achieve precise cuts using an engraving and cutting machine.
With the Print & Cut function, you can flawlessly cut any printed material into any shape, following the edge of the print.
This feature is perfect for small-scale visual communication signage and point-of-sale displays. It comes standard on all our laser and CNC sign making machines.
| FAQ: the 5 questions most frequently asked of our experts |
|---|
🔽What types of materials are best to engrave signs and displays?
Bi-layer plastics, such as Gravoply™ Ultra, are excellent for easy engraving and cutting, offering immediate contrast, a wide range of colors/finishes, and great legibility.
Flexilase™ is adaptable for curved surfaces, and materials like Gravoglas™ 1 are ideal for professional plaques and transparent display needs.
🔽What is the best engraving machine for display and sign?
For large panels and cutting, the LS900 is the best laser machine as it offers a large work area and high speed on materials like wood, acrylic, and plastic. The ISx000 is a great rotary alternative that also provides a large space for these materials.
Both machines can feature "print and cut" functions for custom graphic applications.
🔽Where can I supply materials for engraving displays and signs?
It is best to purchase engraving materials from specialized engraving suppliers like Gravotech. This ensures compatibility with your machine and guarantees quality. We offer a wide range of tested, specific materials for laser and rotary use.
🔽How to create a sign with multiple colors or layers/depths?
The most common way to create a sign with multiple colors is to use bi-layer plastic that involves engraving (laser and mechanical) the top layer to reveal the contrasting color underneath. For multi-layered designs, cut pieces from different materials (wood, acrylic) and then assemble them onto a backing. This offers great aesthetic and depth effects.
🔽Are engraved signs suitable for outdoor use in extreme conditions?
Yes, engraved signs are highly durable for outdoor use because the engraving creates a recess that removes material. Even if surface colors fade, the relief remains permanent, ensuring the sign is legible for life, unlike potentially deteriorating ink on a digital print.
