The Bespoke page gives you information and photographic examples on some of the custom fabricated work we can do, including CNC routing, CNC folding, modification of existing extrusions and much more. Lumirescent is our new range of LED based lighting products, running at a fraction of the electrical consumption of fluorescent lamps. Our very flexible and versatile Lumirescent strip can be used in anything from edge lighting to illumination of built up letters where normally neon would be used. The Fabricated Stainless Steel Letters area tells you a little (more information soon) on a service we are offering for exceptionally high quality stainless steel fabricated letters. |
New CNC MachineryArticle Date: June, 2008 This month sees the installation of two new state of the art CNC machines at Insight. The TURBObend Plus folding system, with its innovative 'draw and fold' features will allow us to create much more sophisticated folded panels than at present, with such features as curves, which when combined with our extrusions will increase our potential for manufacturing bespoke products.
More information on the machines can be found on the manufacturers web site by clicking on the machine names above. A .WMV video of the TURBObend plus in action can also be seen by clicking here. |
| New Speed Flex Integral Article Date: February, 2008
The cover plate now has spring-assisted operation, meaning practically no effort is required to open or close it, but most importantly, when open the spring holds the cover plate in position, so when work is being carried out in the tensioning area, it will not be blown down, and it is also not loose, so no health and safety risk of it falling down on someone. This replaces the existing cover plate which was screw-free and the first of a kind in any system, but did require some effort to open and close. The drip-lip design is retained on the new cover plate, to prevent streaking down the sign face. Potential tensioning has now been increased by around 5 mm, which can be very helpful on large signs, but more importantly the design has been modified to allow the Alumiflex tensioning tool (shown in photo above) to be used to tension the flex holders, making for a much simpler, faster, and more refined tensioning experience. The new Speed Flex Integral will also be available in silver anodised finish, which will be very competitively priced when compared with powder coating, with faster delivery times. The rest of the Speed Flex system will be updated during 2008 in line with the new design. Finally, we will be offering very high quality digital printed faces, complete with laminated finish.
