Sign Routing Services Los AngelesThere have been a lot of exciting changes happening at The Sign Studio recently. Chief among them is our purchases of new equipment. In the previous two blogs, we discussed our new laser engraver and the plaques and awards we can create with it. Today, we are going to look at our new sign router, the Vision Series 4 Controller, and how it is perfect for creating routed signs for Los Angeles.

What Is a Sign Router?

A router is a tool that is used to hollow out an area in a piece of metal, plastic, or wood. It is most often used for decorative moldings, sign making, and cabinetry, and it can be used to cut fancy patterns, grooves, and edges. A router consists of an electric motor-driven spindle. The router can be used for an array of projects when a router bit is used. Many consider the router to be one of the most versatile tools available.

Now that we have defined what a router is, we should probably let you know that the Vision Series 4 Controller is not exactly a router, but it is essentially the same thing. It is known as a rotary engraver. Like a router, it utilizes a rotating cutter or tool in a motorized spindle. And, it is used to produce cuts of specified depths and widths in a broad range of materials.
