FPL Signs has purchased its third VeloBlade from Vivid Laminating Technologies
Farnborough-based FPL Signs services both the signage and print graphics industries and has recently purchased its third VeloBlade cutter from Vivid Laminating Technologies.
The company has installed a VeloBlade Nexus wide-format digital die-cutting system in order to expand its sign-related cutting and routing capabilities. This will particularly enhance the company’s work using wide-format substrates such as vinyl, Foamex, ACM, and acrylic.
Part of the Sandhurst Autoprint Group, FPL Signs’ most recent purchase joins its pre-existing VeloBlade Volta and VeloBlade Nexus digital die-cutting systems.
Nick Brooks, operations manager at FPL Signs says the company opted for the VeloBlade Nexus due to its functionality, versatility, and because of the existing Vivid kit already in use within the group.
“We felt confident using the system and the fact that the Nexus came in at a cost-effective price point made sense for us to invest in,” he says.
Another selling point for FPL Signs was the quality of service received from Vivid and Brooks describes Vivid’s service engineer Matt Milnes as “extremely efficient in his workings”.
“Along with the technical support team, we are working towards advanced use of the VeloBlade Nexus’ capabilities, including cutting, kiss-cutting, and CNC routing of various substrates such as Correx, ACM, and acrylic,” Brooks adds.
