‘’Picture-Perf’’ - What is it?It’s a fresh & exciting concept to add to your creations by
perforating images into sheet metal.

The Process
It starts with an image processed on a computer which is then perforated onto a sheet.
![Page 3: ‘’Picture-Perf’’ - What is it?](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103007/56814345550346895dafbd56/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The process is similar to printing.
Instead of dots, holes are used to create an image. Different size holes represent the various shades in the image.

Here is an example of natural sunlight shining on “Picture-Perf”.
Shadow images, as you can see, can be quite effective.

Using artificial light sources contribute significantly to changing its appearance.

Curving a flat sheet with a small radiusmakes panels a lot more ridged
and can help eliminate potential distortion issues.
![Page 7: ‘’Picture-Perf’’ - What is it?](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103007/56814345550346895dafbd56/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Completed project,the slightly curved panels are substantially stronger
& less susceptible towards vandalism

Coloured & transparent background gives added dimension,printed canvas or light diffusing plastic can be supplied behind the perforations

RGB LED’s are be fitted when required adding another dimension to “Picture-Perf”.

Detail – is determined by size & spacing of holes in relation to surface area.
Large surface areas achieve good detail without making perforations small.

Microscopic stretching occurs in all perforating processes.
(Extreme example of stainless steel)
In 99% of casesour solution is to use a levelling machine
we can level up to 2.2m in both directions.
End result – totally flat sheet
