5.2 If Client’s Artwork is supplied in an incorrect format the Company may be required to amend drawings, where the Company will consult with the Client to confirm the extra costs, which is a chargeable service. If no artwork is supplied by the Client, the Company may create drawings, which are a chargeable service to the Client. Prior agreement on artwork / drawing charges will be sought in advance in writing (email to suffice) between the Client and the Company.

5.3 The Company’s design teams can produce bespoke artwork for subsequent cutting or engraving. Drawing Specifications and any subsequent changes to drawing specifications should ideally be confirmed in writing, as Company cannot be held liable  for misinterpretation of a Client’s verbal instructions.

5.4 The Client acknowledges and accepts that design and drawing work is subject to cancellation charges or modification charges once Work has commenced by the Company.

5.6 It is Company policy to cut exactly to a Client’s drawing, with no drawing modification (unless by prior arrangement in writing). For laser cutting this includes offsetting lines to account for the reaction of materials to the laser process or the width of the laser cut (laser kerf is minimal compared and ranges from c0.01mm to c1mm). If component tolerances are of particular importance, the Company suggests, and can offer prototyping, drawing adjustment and post cut tolerance testing as additional services. Company  will however, offset tooling paths for waterjet and CNC processes, as Company’s software selects the most suitable offset for the tool width.

5.7 If the Client is not confident of their drawing’s suitability for Work, the Company can offer drawing evaluation and modification as additional services, which will be chargeable. Where possible the Company  will advise of any faults Company can see within the Client’s Artwork. Otherwise, it will be assumed that the Company’s  drawing advise has been followed and that the drawing is suitable for use.

The quality of the artwork and the properties of the material or object will affect how the image will be marked on the piece. The Company will always aim to optimise results and recommend testing wherever possible, to give the Client a realistic expectation of the final result.

5.10 The Company aims to save Client design files for future repeat use; however, the Client should make arrangements to also store Client’s files as the Company does not have a requirement to store all files after a job is completed.

For example, Perspex material is supplied with a manufacturing tolerance of + / -10% plus 0.4mm (e.g. an 8mm cast sheet could vary from 6.8mm to 9.2mm in thickness). Without prior agreement, it is not the Company’s responsibility to pre-check material thickness or other parameters before commencing laser work, Company will take the manufacturers specification details in good faith and use these materials in the accepted way. Company can check materials tolerances and communicate to the Client, prior to commencing Work, as an additional service, if required by the Client in the Formal Quotation. This would be recommended for projects with slotted parts.

6.3 The Company will not be held liable for any inconsistencies in material, such as knots in wood, which could result in inaccuracies with the cutting or engraving, although every effort will be taken to ensure the best results. Company may, in its sole discretion, offer to redo unsatisfactory work as a show of good faith. This does not constitute the Company accepting liability unless agreed in writing.

6.4 Protective backing is provided as standard on many materials (acrylic, aluminium, etc), and may be added if appropriate to other materials. Without prior written agreement, it is the Client’s responsibility to remove protective backing, as the backing will protect the work during transport and help it to arrive is the best condition possible. Backing removal and other finishing can be offered as an additional service.

6.5 When a Client provides materials to Company for Work, it is the Client’s responsibility to deliver them in good condition and to ensure, as far as possible, that the Client Materials  are suitable for the Work intended. The Company reserves the right to refuse suspect Client Materials, and to seek damages from the Client, if the Client Materials cause harm to Company employees  and/or equipment when used.

6.6 While every reasonable effort will be made, if Company carries out the Client’s instructions on the Client’s Materials, and the results are not as the Client expected, this does not constitute a mistake on the part of the Company, and the Company will not be liable for a refund, or for the value / replacement of the Client’s Materials.
