FOTOBLECH - pattern generator
Generate patterns
Certain motifs are not always the focus of our perforated sheets, but rather patterns that are calculated using our pattern generators. We have a whole range of different patterns on offer. The following also applies here: Each individual perforated plate is charged separately and is therefore unique.
Chance plays a big role in most patterns. You are welcome to try out a few examples yourself on this page and always have the patterns recalculated.
If you need another sample, please contact us with your ideas. We build the pattern generator according to your wishes. Since new patterns are constantly being added, a regular visit to the pattern page pays off!
Randomly distributed hole sizes
Row of holes in random length
FOTOBLECH pattern Prague 1
With the Fotoblech pattern generator 'Prague1,' a typical sidewalk pattern from Prague can be created as a fully parameterizable design.
This allows design elements such as shape, size, and spacing to be individually adjusted, enabling customized applications.

FOTOBLECH organic-vector Bubbles
With the "organic-vector" patterns, a new category of pattern generators for photoresist plates is introduced.
These patterns are no longer constrained by the traditional dot matrix, offering greater flexibility and precision.
The "organic-vector Bubbles" pattern marks the beginning.

Basic pattern Standard
To create unique patterns, we use algorithms to generate a base pattern that is then refined with various filters.
The pattern generator called "Standard" creates a pattern similar to that of a typical perforated metal sheet, with new patterns made possible only by the applied filters.

Pattern generator Hexagon
The hexagon pattern uses the natural 60 degree diagonals of a perforated sheet with staggered rows.
Different sized perforations combined with a variety of filters create delightful vibrant patterns.

Fotoblech-Frame: China 1
Give your patterns a frame. Here you can see an example with the frame "China 1" (20.555).
The frames can be combined with all patterns, are fully parameterized in the desired frame thickness and spacing, and are compatible with all photo sheet filters.
