Engraving |

Precision
engraving is carried out on one of a range of vertical engraving
machines. Manually operated engraving enables the operator to engrave
difficult materials such as wood, stone, and stainless steel, and
compensate for the irregular hardness of these materials. Shown
above is one of the precision tasks carried out at Cooper engraving,
the reproduction of gold blocking dies engraved from a piece of
solid brass. We can reproduce letters from our range of standard
typefaces, or from font styles and artwork masters produced by our
reprographic department. |

Our logo
depicts the traditional hand engraving tools still used today at
Cooper Engraving to produce the intricate designs on dies used in
the manufacture of lace paper doyleys. This work is carried out
by less than a score of craftsmen around Gt. Britain, and as yet
cannot be reproduced by machine. The roller illustrated here would
take between two & three months to complete. |
| Glass
Engraving |
 |
Decorative
and commercial glass engraving are carried out on the premises.
This process involves the production of a template, which is bonded
temporarily to the surface of the glass. The image is formed when
the glass is abraded away leaving a translucent image of the required
design. A range of crystal glassware is available, or we will undertake
to engrave glassware supplied by the customer. As with all our |
| work, artwork
can be designed, or matched to your own specifications. |
| Computerised
Engraving |
 |
Keeping abreast of
new technology is vital in any forward moving company, and at
Cooper Engraving we use the latest computerised engraving facilities
for quality results.
Hand Engraving
Making hand engraved plates is a skill learned
over many years and here at Cooper Engraving we have three generations
worth of skill and experience.
