contour cutting process

What is Contour Cutting?

Contour cutting uses a cutting plotter machine, which employs an automated blade to follow a digitally predetermined path around the edge of your printed design, known as the “contour line.” This method can cut through various materials such as vinyl, paper, and more, providing clean, crisp cuts that adhere to exact specifications.

Types of Contour Cutting

Contour cutting can be done through various techniques, each with its unique properties. Our Custom-shaped graphics provide impactful solutions for branding, advertising, and messaging, catering to varied needs such as vehicle wraps, storefront signs, or personalized decals.

Benefits of Contour Cut Graphics

Precision and Accuracy

With the use of advanced technology such as CNC and laser cutting, contour cutting delivers a high level of precision. This ensures that each cut is accurate to the design, maintaining the integrity of even the most complex shapes and intricate patterns.

Consistency and Repeatability

Contour cutting techniques guarantee consistency, delivering identical results across multiple runs. Whether you require a dozen or a thousand units, each piece will be an exact match to the original design, ensuring brand consistency.

Fast Turnaround

Advanced contour cutting technology enables a fast production process, which means we can turn projects around quickly to meet your tight deadlines without compromising on quality.

Efficiency

Contour cutting is a highly efficient process. It minimizes waste by utilizing materials effectively, thus offering a sustainable choice that also saves on cost over time.

Customization

The defining feature of contour cutting is its ability to facilitate extensive customization. From intricate logos to life-sized cut-outs, the possibilities are only limited by your imagination, empowering brands to create truly unique visual elements.

Unique Designs

Contour cutting lets you push the boundaries of design, creating signage that stands out and leaves a lasting impression. By moving beyond the traditional rectangular formats, you can capture your audience's attention and express your brand's unique personality.

I used their rush service for same-day delivery, and they really delivered! It was for a large vinyl print for a private business window. Communication was fluid, specs were clear, and the print was high-quality. Installation was seamless and even earlier than expected, and they provided the COI in a timely manner. I'm so thankful for the great job; my client and boss were very happy!

Wonderful & seamless experience with SignsNY! From start to finish, they were super communicative & helpful explaining the process. They were thorough & professional, from coordinating logistics to the onsite team for installation. We had them install frosting on our conference rooms in our office & they look fabulous--just what we wanted! I would recommend them to anyone & if we ever need similar services, I wouldn't hesitate to work with them again.

Needed urgent vinyl adhesive window clings for a branding project with a tight turnaround and SignsNY was the only place that didn't laugh at me when I told them we needed them in the same day. They executed quickly and communication was top notch throughout the process!
