Metallizing

Metallization enables three-dimensional logos to be given a metallic finish and thus generate a high-quality surface with a special effect.

  • Capacity – with two systems, ProLicht has the largest production capacity at one location in Europe.

  • Special features – When metallizing plastic, it is possible to control the application of the effect layers that the chrome effect is either opaque light or translucent translucent to light. When illuminated, the molds retain their three-dimensionality even in the night effect.

  • Materials – Normally, thermoformed logo elements made of acrylic glass are metallized. In addition to the chrome effect, a golden colour can also be achieved.

Thermoforming

Our thermoforming systems use heat and vacuum to bring acrylic glass into shape. A tool made of aluminium or wood is always used as the basis.

  • Capacity – with two systems, ProLicht has the largest production system and production capacity at one location – anywhere in Europe. This enables us to thermoform large quantities in different formats.
  • Processing dimensions and materials – The systems can process plastic materials up to 8 mm thick. Depending on the system, the sheet size is 2000 x 3000 mm or 3100 x 3100 mm. In addition to standard plastic materials, we can also produce and process customer-specific sheets (colours and effects).
  • In-house production – The thermoforming systems are part of ProLicht’s production facilities at the Ozimek plant in Poland and can therefore be directly accessed and flexibly utilised in production planning.

Punching and nibbling machine

This machine combines two forms of processing (nibbling and punching) in one machine, which can be used to punch or cut simple or more complex shapes out of a sheet.

  • Material – Aluminium sheets up to 5 mm thick and steel sheets up to a maximum thickness of 2 mm can be processed.
  • Shapes – A wide variety of shapes can be CNC punched from the sheet material, e.g. letters.

CNC milling machines

Our machinery in the area of milling systems enables us to process plastic, aluminium and wood in a variety of ways. We use CNC control to process raw materials on up to 5 axes.

  • Milling systems – At our three European production sites, we have two milling machines with five axes each and 11 systems with a wide range of multi-axis milling machines.

  • Materials and processing dimensions – Plastic, aluminium and wooden objects can be processed. The possible processing dimensions vary for the individual systems and range up to 4000 mm x 3700 mm x 1300 mm.

  • Special features – The 5-axis milling systems can be used to produce custom molds for thermoforming from wood and other special materials. In addition to the use of aluminium molds for series production, we can also offer an economical solution for smaller quantities.

3D printing

With our 3D printers in our production plants in Germany and Poland, it is possible to produce even complex shapes for signage quickly and efficiently.

  • Capacity – With 18 printers at our sites, the ProLicht Group has the ability to produce sophisticated 3D prints quickly and flexibly.

  • Application – In addition to various smaller printers for the production of frames for letters, we also have a large-format printer with a printing space of around 1m³.

Powder coating

ProLicht’s own powder coating system at our production plant in Poland enables the in-house finishing of surfaces to the highest standard. The process is an ideal and energy-efficient alternative to classic wet paint coating.

  • Environmentally friendly & efficient – The material utilisation rate for this process is almost 100% and is also solvent-free, which makes powder coating very environmentally friendly.
  • Resistant – The surfaces are extremely resistant to scratches, impacts and weathering and can also withstand high mechanical loads.
  • High quality – Powder coating creates high-quality surfaces, even for complex advertising elements.

Steel construction

Steel is the basis for most signage elements, but especially for pylons, large mast, etc. At our plant in Ozimek, Poland, we therefore have our own steel construction department for the entire ProLicht Group.

  • Application – The statics of an signage element play a fundamental role in the development and production process. Steel forms the ideal basis for meeting the different wind loads all over the world.
  • In-house – In addition to the actual steel construction, all preparatory work is also carried out by our structural engineer, so we remain flexible and are not reliant on the input of third parties.

  • Certified – Continuous further training of our specialist department and necessary certifications of our employees are consistently pursued.

Warehousing

Our intelligent warehousing is an essential basis for flexibility and reliability in production. The ProLicht Group has large warehouse capacities for stocking materials at all production sites. The stock material is pre-financed and therefore a strong argument for the reliability and sustainability of our work.

  • Maintenance and service contracts – Our warehousing ensures fast response times and the implementation of customer-specific service agreements.
  • Wide range of materials in stock – Whether acrylic glass in special sizes and colors or aluminium – the ProLicht Group requires a wide range of materials. Our Material stocking is controlled intelligently and in line with the demand that production requirements can be responded quickly.
  • Customer-specific warehousing – In addition to standard materials, special components developed for customers are also used. We also stock these so that we can react quickly if necessary.

Paint shops

If paint colours are used for the realization of a corporate brand solution, four paint booths in different sizes and for different tasks are available at our European production sites.

  • Capacity – A total of four booths measuring up to 7 x 4.5 meters.

  • Material – Depending on the task, a wide variety of components can be painted: Plastic, aluminium parts, masts, steel beams, etc.

Laser systems

The ProLicht Group has three laser systems in its production facilities. The laser process is used when high cutting quality is required

  • Plastics processing – When using our laser technology, 3-axis plastics processing is possible, e.g. of acrylic sheets up to a thickness of 20 mm.

  • Aluminium / steel / stainless steel processing – Using laser technology, we are able to process various hard metal materials precisely and with a high cutting quality.

  • 100% in-house production – With the available capacity, the ProLicht group is able to realize all tasks at the 3 locations 100% in-house. This means we are flexible and can respond to production requirements at short notice.

Aluminum processing

Aluminium is a key material in the production of modern signage solutions, as it is highly stable, lightweight and easy to process. Our CNC-controlled systems (folding benches, impact shears and aluminium rollers) can be used to produce the required part elements in large quantities.

  • Folding benches – our five CNC-controlled folding benches are used to bend and fold sheet metal at specific angles. Material sizes of 4000 x 4100 mm can be processed and therefore large part elements can be produced.

  • Impact shears – The four systems are used for cutting various sheets up to a maximum thickness of 6 mm and a length of 3000 mm.

  • Rollers – The CNC-controlled rollers are used to process aluminium sheets and Dibond panels up to a length of 4500 mm. The special feature of these machines is the rolling of the sheets in specific radii.
