BRISTA Art Punch - the new form of unique art!
Your favourite photos or digital image files, which can be sent to us by post or e-mail, can be used as a template for the BRISTA Art Punch. If necessary, these will be reworked by us in order to ensure that the contrast of the image is strong enough.
With the help of a special program the photos are then broken apart into individual pixels, each of which is then assigned a punching stroke with the appropriate tool.
The resulting program is then forwarded to a turret press, which performs the individual punching actions on the sheet metal. Possible materials are steel, copper, brass or aluminium.
All of the images are punched onto 1 mm thick sheet metal with up to eight rolling tools. The smallest stamp has a diameter of 1 mm, the largest is 3.1 mm. The increment between each stamp to the next largest is 0.3 mm.
The images can be produced in the desired size according to the template.
Once completed, the punched image can be coated in various colours or, in order to preserve the metallic character, a clear coat (classic) upon request.
The image is then mounted in a frame, which can also be supplied in various different colours.
