The Challenge
A down to the wire request to have two large, intricate, decorative metal screens completed in just 4 days.These laser cut panels also received custom plating.
Complex issues
An intensely intricate and delicate decorative pattern repeated throughout the piece.The maximum thickness of the material was limited to 1/16”
These decorative metal panels have many fine and narrow filigree characteristics that could not be cut quickly on the laser
The metal screen panels were very large; 113” x 36”
The Solution
Artistry in Architectural Grilles’ engineering team programed the pattern in several hours and immediately went into production by 4 PM the first day.The laser ran throughout the night continuing on the panels.
Due to the intricacy of the pattern and light material gauge, the cutting sequence had to be randomly arranged to ensure the material wasn’t melted.
The grille pattern required over 60 hours of cutting time.
