CNC Routing Newcastle

Precision CNC routing on our in-house Synergy FS105 — cutting acrylic, Dibond, Foamex, wood and aluminium into letters, shapes and signs.

CNC routing is computer-controlled cutting: a router bit traces your artwork at fractions-of-a-millimetre accuracy, shaping flat materials into finished sign components. Our Synergy FS105 lives in the Blaydon workshop with a vacuum bed that holds materials dead flat, so every cut is clean, accurate and repeatable — whether it is one set of letters or a hundred panels for a rollout.

Materials We Cut

Acrylic

Crystal-clear letters, illuminated sign faces and custom shapes — polished edges, no melting.

Dibond / ACM

Aluminium composite panels for fascia signs and tray signs, cut and routed ready to fold.

Foamex & PVC

Lightweight Foamex panels for interior signs, displays and exhibitions.

Wood & MDF

Carved signs, dimensional lettering, display items and props with clean, tool-finished edges.

Aluminium

Durable outdoor panels and custom components where solid metal is the right call.

Temporary Boards

Correx and similar boards for temporary site signs and low-cost boards, cut in minutes.

What CNC Routing Produces

The router is the backbone of most of what we make: individual characters precision-cut for shop fronts and reception walls; acrylic letters and built-up letters; folded composite trays for exterior fascia signs; shaped panels with routed text, arrows and cut-outs for wayfinding and directional schemes; and custom-cut displays for exhibitions and retail fit-outs. Any shape, any size, with tool paths optimised for the material.

Because the machine is in-house, artwork can be tested on scrap before a job is committed, one-off shapes cost the same per part as the hundredth, and replacement components years later match the original exactly. We help with artwork preparation, layouts and material selection as part of the service.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials can you CNC route?

Acrylic, aluminium composite (Dibond), Foamex and PVC boards, wood and MDF, solid aluminium and correx — each with tool paths chosen for clean, accurate edges.

Is the CNC router in-house?

Yes — our Synergy FS105 sits in our Blaydon workshop with a vacuum bed that holds materials dead flat for clean cuts. Nothing is subcontracted, so quality and turnaround stay in our hands.

How accurate is CNC routing?

Cuts hold fractions-of-a-millimetre accuracy, which is what makes repeated letter sets, illuminated sign faces and replacement components match the original exactly, years later.

Can you cut my custom shape or logo?

Yes — send vector artwork (AI, EPS, SVG) or we can recreate a logo from a high-resolution image. We test tool paths on scrap before committing the job.

How is CNC routing priced?

By job size and material. One-off shapes cost the same per part as the hundredth, and cutting is usually quoted alongside the finished sign or panel. Free quotes always.
