Import our design template into your graphic program and personalize it according to your likes and dislikes. Start with the wooden back part of the display. Send the graphic to JobControl^® using the following parameters.

Tip:

To save material, we cut out some wood from the back part of the display since it will mostly be covered by the front made out of acrylic. 

Print settings

Insert the veneered wood inside the machine and if possible, maximize the vacuum to compensate for any unevenness of the material. Cut the back part, and then clean it with a damp cloth. The suggested parameters can differ depending on the machine used and available laser power.

Laser Parameters: 

Now it's time to work on the small parts of the display: Send the graphic to your Trotec laser. The black-white gradients in the bars safely hold the ball chains due to the slight depressions in the material.

Print settings

Place the solid wood into your Trotec laser machine and make sure that it lies flat and does not move. If needed, tape it down. Engrave and cut the hanging bars from the solid wood. 

Tip:

Due to the small geometry of the hanging bars, we reduced the JobControl^® standard parameter and increased the correction to 20.

Laser Parameters

The adhesive letters made from our veneered wood are a special highlight of this display. The frame around the letters work as a positioning aid. Send the file to the laser using the following parameters.

Tip:

To make the letters, you can use the same wood that we originally cut out form the back of the display. Simply make sure to attach souble sided adhesive tape before cutting the letters out. 

Print settings

Place the veneered wood with double-sided adhesive tape into your Trotec laser, cut the adhesive letters and clean them with a damp cloth. Now put a stripe of paper tape over the letters so that you can easily remove them from the machine.

Laser Parameters

For static reasons we produced the stand from two layers of solid wood. The graphic is the same for both parts.

Important:

Check whether the material thicknesses of front and back part fit into the slot of the stand and adapt them if necessary.

Print settings

Position the solid wood into your Trotec laser and make sure that it lies flat. Duplicate the job in JobControl^® and cut both stands. Clean them with a damp cloth.

Laser Parameters

Info:

• We used the standard laser parameters from JobControl^® for solid wood
• The material parameters of JobControl^® can be downloaded from www.troteclaser.com

For the final part of the display, if you can, remove the aluminium cutting grid and insert the vacuum table. Put the acrylic cutting grid on the vacuum table. Send the graphic to the laser using the following settings:

Print settings

Put the TroGlass Satins into your Trotec laser. Remove the protective foil from the front.
