>> APPLICATIONS

Automotive
Custom gaskets and obsolete parts for vintage car restoration are two more ideal applications. This is an area where our ability to fill very small orders proves to be a big asset. We can create the parts you need out of paper, plastic, metal, foam, rubber or cork. Industry-standard CAD files certainly help, but we've also been known to successfully cut parts based on an accurate hand drawing.

Architectural Models
Architectural design firms appreciate the way laser's precision and detail bring their models to life. We're able to cut intricate patterns that mimic brickwork, wood shingling, window and door frames and even lattice work. Choose from materials like wood, acrylics, paper and steel. Our technology can help you create impressively realistic miniature buildings, large topographical displays and more.

Signage
Looking for high-quality signs or storefront displays? ASTAR can create 2D and 3D point-of-purchase displays, custom backdrops for window displays, light box signage, lettering and even wooden signs featuring hand-crafted antique designs. Let us help get your business noticed with custom designs cut from wood, acrylics, Rowmark™, foam, brushed metals and more.

Consumer Electronics
Electronics manufacturers large and small rely on ASTAR for precision OEM parts used in a variety of components. Turn to us for value-conscious solutions on custom backing plates, access panels, cover plates and internal components like spacers and gaskets. Call us for design, prototyping or any size production runs cutting Delrin, foam, plastic or just about anything else your engineering department dreams up.

Trophies, Awards & Promotional Items
Custom trophies and awards can be cut from nearly any of our standard materials. We also manufacture a wide range of custom promotional items including key chains, business card holders, names tags and bag tags of all shapes and sizes. Our flexible laser cutting systems allow surface engraving on materials up to a full 12" thick.

Wood Floors and Inlays
From simple elegance to the unbelievably elaborate and ornate, we create custom inlays both for individual architects and for use as promotional items. The design possibilities and types of wood are limited only by your imagination. Once you have a good laser cutting specialist on your team, you'll quickly realize that the sky is indeed the limit. If you could use some fresh inspiration, ask us to send you a couple of samples.

Fabric & Leather
We can handle virtually any fabric - anything from polyesters and natural fibers to heavy-duty leather. The laser typically seals the fabric edge cleanly as it cuts. This means no loose fibers, and absolutely no charring. No wonder we're so popular with clothing designers, vehicle restoration companies and companies who manufacture accessories like shoes, belts and leather bags.

Hobby
We work with a number of model designers who sell from plans instead of maintaining expensive inventories. When an order is received, our client lets us know. Then, we simply place a sheet of material into our system. In a single streamlined process, parts are cut, then engraved with part numbers and assembly instructions. Within minutes, a complete set of components ready to ship (for the most cost-effective solution, we recommend running batches of ten or more at a time). This is efficiency at its best.

Medical
A-STAR manufactures parts for a variety of medical applications and well-known research laboratories. Our lasers are perfect for the medical field because of their clean, precise ability to cut plastics, metal parts and specialized materials that aren't easily easy to work with using any other process. We routinely cut Delrin, polyester fabric, mylar, stainless and spring steel for these demanding clients.

>> PRODUCT DESIGN

Including ASTAR in the early design stages of your project typically offers a number of important benefits. We can offer meaningful assistance at any point in the process, but generally clients find it best to call us early on. Our specialized knowledge allows us to offer suggestions in process and materials choices that can expand the bounds of your creativity. This often helps our clients design significant economies into the manufacturing process from the very beginning. ASTAR can accept direction ranging from a sketch on a napkin to sophisticated digital files. Acceptable formats include CAD, Corel, DXF/DWG, CDR, Gerber files, EPS, Photoshop and PDF.


No matter what your project consists of, we will be able to deliver quality advice on products, outstanding customer service, and completion on-time!  We have the ability to custom make designs, access and use over 1,000 fonts, and combine any combination of text, designs, logos, and more into custom made artwork that is tailored to your specifications.  We work with you personally on single custom orders all the way up to high quantity production. Whatever project ideas your imagination can come up with, we can take that idea and make it reality. There is no limit on what we are able to achieve.  Whether your project is Crystal Awards, Glass, Stone, Tile, Metal, Wood, or Granite, we will be able to present to you a finished project of the highest and finest quality that meets all your expectations!
