Made for real sign production

Bring mounting, laminating, trimming, and inspection together.

Designed and manufactured in Sweden, the SIGNROLLER 3617 gives Wisconsin production teams a dedicated surface for completing large-format graphics with fewer handoffs. Operators can position a panel, align the graphic, apply controlled pressure, trim the finished piece, and inspect the result without moving the job across several workstations.

Room for full 5 × 10 panels

The 3368 × 1650 mm working area accommodates a standard North American 5 × 10 panel with additional room for positioning and handling. That space helps teams work comfortably on rigid signs, display panels, mounted prints, and other oversized graphics.

Open two-pillar access

The SIGNROLLER two-pillar design removes unnecessary structure from around the table. Operators have more usable space to move, position materials, reach the work, and handle full-size panels throughout production.

Smooth, controlled application

Two-button stepless control moves the pneumatic roller without fixed position stops. Engineered lift columns help maintain a stable work surface while operators guide pressure across mounting, laminating, masking, and vinyl applications.

Clearer, more comfortable finishing

LED illumination beneath the safety-glass bed helps operators see alignment, edges, and surface details. Electronic height adjustment from 800 to 1100 mm lets each team member choose a practical working position.

Reach customers across Wisconsin

Wisconsin's print and sign businesses are distributed across the state rather than concentrated in only three areas. A SIGNROLLER 3617 gives regional shops a flexible work surface for producing signs, displays, mounted graphics, and other large-format applications.

Support the state's production mix

Commercial printing is the largest of the four measured categories. Shops adding or expanding wide-format services can use the SIGNROLLER 3617 to connect printed output with mounting, trimming, inspection, and finished display production.

Make more of your finishing space

Wisconsin has a substantial group of commercial printers, screen printers, sign manufacturers, and printing-support businesses. The 3617 can add useful finishing capacity for companies that produce a changing mix of panels, graphics, displays, and specialty applications.

How the SIGNROLLER 3617 fits the Wisconsin market

Support commercial printing

Census data includes 416 Wisconsin establishments in commercial printing, the largest of the four measured categories. Their work can include mounted campaign graphics, retail displays, event panels, presentation boards, interior graphics, and short-run visual communications. The SIGNROLLER 3617 supports handoffs from printing to finishing, staging time, mounting accuracy, operator touches, and the quality of the completed panel on one full-size surface.

Expand commercial screen printing capabilities

The state's second-largest measured category includes 135 establishments. Businesses serving this market can use the 3617 for decals, overlays, transfer materials, specialty graphics, rigid panels, and mixed-media jobs that move between printing and finishing, with one table available for material handling across job sizes, repeat positioning, protection of printed surfaces, changeover time, and cross-training.

Serve leading production centers

Milwaukee County, Waukesha County, and Dane County are leading centers for the measured print and sign categories in Wisconsin. A consistent finishing workflow can help shops deliver dependable quality to customers within these areas and throughout the state.

Add versatile finishing capacity

Wisconsin's 711 measured establishments represent a varied market for signs, displays, mounted prints, decals, and specialty graphics. The 3617 gives growing shops a flexible finishing area that can handle both large panels and smaller repeat orders.

Bringing the 3617 to Wisconsin

Plan a smooth delivery and setup for your Wisconsin shop.

Every facility has a different receiving area, production layout, and service location. These practical Wisconsin details can help SIGNROLLER USA prepare an accurate quote and a delivery plan that fits your business.

Delivery across Wisconsin

Compare Milwaukee, Madison, Green Bay, Fox Valley, Eau Claire, northern Wisconsin, and rural destinations. Winter travel, long northern routes, terminal coverage, and final access should be quoted separately.

Getting the table into place

Set safe-weather criteria, verify snow-cleared access when applicable, confirm dock or lift gate, lifting equipment, protected staging, doors, turns, floor path, inspection, and backup scheduling.

Keeping media production-ready

Follow supplier guidance for cold shipment, acclimation, condensation prevention, humidity, and static. Record room conditions and hold times during demonstration and acceptance work.

Service and support

Ask where Wisconsin technicians and parts are based. Document remote support, winter travel, mileage and overnight charges, response expectations, warranty handling, maintenance, and recommended onsite spares.
