Mitsubishi Sign Panels

Mitsubishi Plastics Composites America Inc. (Chesapeake, VA) is offering Graphic-Al™ sign panels. Offerings include:

• LT, which is designed for indoor signage and displays as a coated-aluminum alternative and fabricated with white/white (front and back), black/white, silver/bronze, red/yellow and green/blue constructions (the all-white panels are available in 2,3 or 4-mil thicknesses; all others are 3 mil);

• HP, which the company offers for outdoor retail and corporate-identity applications and sells in black and white;

• OR, a lightweight, aluminum, foam-plastic-core material designed for interior or exterior signs and displays;

• and, DP, a white, 3-mil substrate designed for exterior signage and displays.

According to the company, the substrates may be cut with standard woodworking saws (preferably with a carbide-tip blade); such cutting apparatus as the Fletcher Susbstrate Cutter with an aluminum composite tool, or Foster Mfg.’s Keencut SteelTrak when equipped with a twin-wheel cutting head; or, on a CNC router with a 1/16- or 1/8-in. straight bit. The LT and HP sheets may also be folded after grooving or curved with roller benders or press brakes. All Graphic-Al substrates may be joined with metal or steel fasteners or rivets. Graphic-Al LT and DP may be direct-printed with UV ink; all varieties may be screenprinted. Mitsubishi ships the material with transparent, protective films.
