Amersham Sign Design Offers Customers Choice and Style Using SAi Flexi Software

SAi’s Flexi software is the “Swiss Army Knife” of tools for Amersham Sign Design, allowing them to do a host of applications including vehicle graphics.

"Think of us as a Swiss Army Knife,” says Perry Brahan, Designer and Director of UK-based, Amersham Sign Design. “We’re a relatively small company offering a wide variety of services, many of them enabled by design, print and cut software from SAi.”

With the right machines and software, and a few people, Brahan and his team produce signage of all types. One of those tools is SAi (Booth 932) Flexi, which enables the company to do the variety of work usually found only in larger companies.

Established in 1986, Amersham Sign Design began with traditional vehicle painting, later moving to electronic, then digital design and print technologies in the mid-1990s. The company began using SAi Flexi in 1996.

“Unlike other systems at the time, Flexi was more comfortable to use,” Brahan says. “Basic functions, like drawing a circle, were easy compared to everything else that was available. More importantly, it offered more file export extensions, enabling files to be used on a wider range of equipment.

“Today, we use it with our HP Scitex FB950 flatbed printer and our HP Latex 360 large-format printer. Flexi exports directly with the Zünd GTK Software to drive our Zünd G3 digital cutter, as well as with our MultiCam 48 Plus CNC router thanks to the direct link with SAi’s own EnRoute software.”
