The team here at Yeti Tool have been delighted with recent feedback from a customer who has stated that "SmartBench is a fast and efficient CNC for our sign-making business."
Simon Judge, Founder and Owner of Doncaster-based sign-making company SPJ Marketing was tired of subbing out work for flat-cut lettering, and flat objects on client projects, as he commented:
"I wanted to look into CNC machines as so much work was going to third parties, which significantly increased the costs and time on each project."
"SmartBench perfectly suited our small space, as well as being portable and able to comfortably be transported in a long-wheel-base Mercedes Vito van."
Simon booked a free one-hour SmartBench demonstration and purchased his own CNC soon after.
Simon purchased a SmartBench PrecisionPro in May 2022 and has recently upgraded further to a Precision Pro+ with the new YetiPilot operating system for his sign-making business.
"SmartBench is easy to use and fits easily through doorways. The cost was non-prohibitive, with bigger standard large-format CNC machines costing two to three times more," added Simon.
"SmartBench takes less than 10 minutes to set up a project file, and 15 minutes to cut it. Then it's out the door to a customer on the same day."
Simon was previously waiting 3-4 days for third parties to provide work for interior and exterior signage on projects across Yorkshire and the North East.
"Not many smaller sign-making companies use a CNC. We are now putting out commercial-quality work."
