Laser Cutting Service operates across a range of sectors. Among other things, they produce advertising hoardings and scale models. They also specialise in promotional gifts and other bespoke laser cutting and engraving projects. The company’s main market is model and scale model construction. We spoke to Hans van Ee, the company’s owner.
The products
Hans tells us what they make with the laser machine. “We actually make all sorts of things for industry. For example, advertising hoardings, parts for hospitals and lots of items for the hobby market. We usually do this on a 1:32 scale and then make models for museums, for instance.” For example, Hans recently recreated a huge railway station in miniature together with a colleague. And almost every part was made using the laser machine. “We didn’t have any drawings of this building, just photographic material. We drew it all ourselves and then made it using the laser machine. It took us a lot of time, but the result is impressive!”
The machine is essential
According to Hans, the laser is an indispensable part of the business. “The laser machine is our best friend. If it weren’t there, we might as well pack up. You simply couldn’t do our work with a jigsaw. You can work very quickly and with a great deal of detail. The machine has simply become indispensable to the business. Everything we do can only be done with a laser cutter; it’s so precise. And you can only achieve that with a laser machine.” Hans believes that every model maker should consider buying a machine.
BRM’s service
Hans says he is happy with his choice of BRM. “I’m actually a very satisfied customer. When it comes to service, I can recommend BRM to everyone. Of course, there are cheaper machines on the market, but in this case, cheap really is expensive. If you want good service, you simply have to choose a company that specialises in laser machines. At BRM, you simply get fast and professional service, and we really appreciate that.”
“You simply couldn’t do our work with a jigsaw. You can work very quickly and with a great deal of detail.”
The working process
The laser cutting process is ideal for Hans. “We draw up designs and check thoroughly that everything meets the requirements. Then we load it onto the laser and it’s ready in no time. And that’s just perfect for us. Everything comes out of the machine exactly as you’ve drawn it. You simply can’t achieve that level of precision by hand.”
