Aluminium solid panels
Perforating, CNC routing, engraving or printing: how patterns are made
Four processes put a pattern into an aluminium panel and they are not interchangeable. Mould punching is fastest and cheapest where the pattern repeats over a large area. CNC routing handles thicker plate and profiled edges. Laser cutting gives the finest detail and smallest internal radii. Engraving and printing leave the panel solid, so they change appearance without giving any ventilation or shading benefit at all.
Key points
- Mould punching is the cheapest route for a repeating pattern over a large area
- CNC routing handles thicker plate and can profile the cut edge in the same operation
- Laser cutting gives the finest detail and the smallest internal radii
- Engraving and printing keep the panel solid, so they add no ventilation or shading
