The
mosaic mimic has advantages in that it can be unlimited in size, is
extremely sturdy and individual tiles can be changed after the mimic
has been completed.
THE
SYSTEM - The 'MASTERTECH' System is composed of modular
elements. The graphic display is on tiles which are plugged into a
grid constructed from interlocking long and short sections. As both
tiles and grid are made from a polycarbonate (Makrolon) which is a
stable heat resistant material, they have matching expansion
characteristics.
THE MIMIC (GRAPHICS) - All artwork is computer
generated directly from approved cad drawings. This produces
superior
quality, exactly as per drawing. CAD information is kept on
computer and extensions can thus be done exactly the same as the
original thus keeping the quality of installation at a high standard
at all times. All symbols, lines etc are totally engraved and
the outline filled in black. This outline engraving improves the
visibility, enhances quality and the engraving cannot be removed
even with excessive cleaning.
THE GRID - The grid is assembled from
interlocking dovetailed sections with staggered joints. This system
provides a rigid and
robust structure for the mimic panel. The grid
incorporates fixing holes for fitting of P.C. Boards etc. The clear
rear surface of
the grid frame is ideal for neat fixing of wiring trunking etc. If
parts are cut or removed to fit instruments, the mosaic grid can be
replaced in small modules (2 x 4 tiles). Pre-punched strengthening
channel is available for secure fixing with screws onto moulded
holes. This is also ideal for fixing components onto the grid.
THE TILES - Tiles are available in 24x24, 24x48 and 48x48mm in light grey and black. Tile attachment is
symmetrical so they can
be rotated through 90. The surface is
anti-glare. Tiles
(including the first tile) can be removed from the
front using a special tool. Tile construction is extremely
precise and size does vary by more than 0.03mm along any edge. The
tile fits extremely well when assembled. Rear illuminated tiles are
available in single section, double section and triple section
illumination. (E.g. Run, stop and trip in 1 tile).
