DEVICE AND METHOD FOR GENERATING CHANNEL LETTERS

摘要

The disclosure provides a method and apparatus for forming a channel letter box using a profile. The method can include determining an incision position on one surface of the profile where at least one surface incision is to be made. The profile can be surface incised at the determined position. The profile can be folded at the incision position to form the channel letter box. The profile can have at least one rib on one surface. The method can also include cutting and attaching a top plate to the channel letter box, wherein a thickness of the top plate is substantially close to a distance from the top of the profile to the top of a top rib of the at least one rib.

1. A method of forming a channel letter using a rule, the method comprising:
determining at least one incision position on a first surface of the rule; surface incising at the at least one incision position to create at least one surface incision on the first surface, the at least one surface incision oriented substantially transverse to a longitudinal axis of the rule and penetrating a cut depth into the first surface of the rule, the cut depth being less than a rule thickness; folding the rule at the at least one incision position to form the channel letter, the first surface being disposed on an inside of the channel letter and a second surface, opposite the first surface, being disposed on an outside of the channel letter.
