Our Speciality

Your Vision, Our Experience & Skills

At Signs New York, our CNC machines offer exceptional capabilities and axes to deliver precise and versatile fabrication. With multi-axis machining, including the X, Y, and Z axes, we can create intricate designs and achieve precise control over cuts and shapes. Our CNC machines also feature a 4th axis for rotary movement and, in some cases, a 5th axis for added flexibility in creating complex geometries. These capabilities enable us to handle a wide range of design requirements and materials with the utmost precision and efficiency.

Profile Cutting

CNC routing is a highly precise method used in the CNC industry to cut designs from materials. It involves using a CAD file as a guide for the cutting process. CNC machines can operate in three dimensions simultaneously (X, Y, Z), but they commonly cut in the XY plane to create flat shapes with a specific material thickness. This technique allows for intricate cutting details, even on a wide range of materials, thanks to the use of small bits as tiny as 1/16″ in diameter. In addition, CNC routing enables variable depth carving and etching, which can be achieved by using different types of tool heads. This versatility opens up opportunities for creating unique designs. If desired, we can rout out the etched areas and fill them with paint, enhancing the visual appeal of the finished product. Alternatively, for specific applications, we can work with a two-tone material that reveals a different color underneath when the top layer is routed away. This can create a striking visual effect. For CNC routing services in New York City, we offer expertise in the field, using state-of-the-art equipment to bring your designs to life with precision and attention to detail.
For CNC routing, you need a vector drawing with a cutting path. Accepted file types include *.dwg, *.ai, *.3dm, *.dxf, and *.eps, typically created using software like Adobe Illustrator, AutoCAD, Rhino, and others. Raster (image) files cannot be directly used for profile cutting. They need to be converted into vector files for quoting and cutting purposes. If you require help with this conversion, please let us know, and we’ll be glad to assist you.

Parts

The power of CNC routing goes beyond traditional signage. With its precise cutting abilities and a wide range of router bit options, we can create more than just signs. Imagine crafting entire parts or sculptural pieces from various materials, pushing the boundaries of creativity. From countersinks and threaded holes to roundovers and slots, the dynamic capabilities of the router enable us to achieve intricate designs. We can collaborate with you to design pieces that seamlessly integrate with specified hardware and connectors, ensuring a perfect match. Discover the limitless possibilities of CNC routing, where functionality meets artistry. Let us help you bring your vision to life with precision and attention to detail.
With the router’s precision, we can cut and combine materials to create a finished product. For ultimate precision and customization, we seamlessly transfer parts from the router to the laser cutter, adding the perfect finishing touches in-house.

Surface Routing

Our CNC router is capable of removing material at different depths. This can be achieved through right angle step-downs or smoothly stepping down in the Z-axis while moving in the XY plane. Both techniques create a 3D relief, depending on the design requirements. Our router offers over 10″ of Z-axis clearance, providing a wide range of depth possibilities.
For surface routing of three-dimensional objects, a 3D model is usually needed. However, if the cut depths only involve flat, pocketed areas, a 2D drawing is sufficient. If you have 2D drawings, we can help you create the necessary 3D model to bring your piece to life.

How Does It Work?

If you have prepared files you would like to submit for quote, you can upload them for us to take a look at and give you feedback. Laser Cutting and CNC routing requires a drawing (vector file) for processing through the machine. If you’re unable to provide a vector file for cutting, we can likely assist you for an additional fee.
We are able to source and provide materials as necessary for most projects, however projects requiring special materials may require you to supply the material yourself. Please see our materials pages for a sample list of available materials.
We’ll evaluate your files and provide you with a quote based on the material and amount of time required to cut your project.
After approval, we’ll run the job and send you a notification when they’re ready. You can then pay your invoice online and pick it up at your convenience!
