Pierced Aluminum Nameplates and Labels
Piercing is a tooling operation which creates openings in the decorated aluminum for backlit graphics, LED lights, buttons or other mechanisms to be functional. Another reason to include a pierce operation into your nameplate design is to allow the label to be used as a decorative hang tag and draw attention to your brand. Yet another need for piercing is to enable attachment with rivets or screws in lieu of adhesive or needing a carrier to snap into the product housing.
Pierce operations can be found in tooling across the industrial world. Appliance trim, home electronics, point of purchase promotions, packaging accessories, sporting equipment, and vehicle instrumentation panels all use pierced and decorated aluminum in some fashion.
