Here is a brief overview of how we get from a photograph portrait to the finished glass object. The beauty of it is the simplicity of the process. Because what is most important to us

is offering you products that are easy to use and reliable. So you can focus on what matters most: your customers.

Technology for sub-surface engraving

Step 1: Take a portrait using our c-cam 3D camera or create a special 3D design for your customer using CAD software

Step 2: Process the data using our powerful crystalab software. This allows you to create complex laser images with ease on your pc to act as a template for your glass image.

Step 3: Once you have transferred your image template to one of our laser systems, a laser beam will burn it into crystal glass with maxi-mum precision and at high speed. The surface remains smooth and flawless.

Step 4: Now captured forever, you can present an amazing 3D crystal image to your customer in just a few minutes!

Our conversion software crystalab pro allows you to produce texturised 2D and 3D designs in glass. For the greyscale images, there is a choice of different dithering strategies and multilayer technology. The quality of designs generated in this way is breathtaking and images are vibrant and realistic. The software is a plug-in for StudioMAX and handles large quantities of data at high speed with no problems. Thanks to the preview function, you

can realistically visualise the image in glass before you laser it. You can also e-mail previews to your customers as a full 3D model in compressed form so that they can rotate and check it onscreen.

Business potential for you

Turnover

What you could earn!

Here some figures to help you provisionally estimate your potential turnover and profit. Please bear in mind that figures may vary depending on the location.

For simplicity, only two products are considered here: 3D portraits in size 50 x 50 x 80 mm and keychains in a 15 x 20 x 30 mm format.

You can also boost sales further by marketing accessories such as light bases and other glass items.

First some general information:

• For 3D photography, you can expect to spend approx. 1 minute per person, including prepa-ration and image processing.

• Laser processing takes approx. 3 minutes for the 50 x 50 x 80 mm glass size and approx. 45 seconds for a keychain.

• Raw materials: We will supply crystal glass in different shapes and dimensions from our stock in excellent quality including a gift box. We deliver at short notice and for excellent price. Please ask for our up to date price list.

• Standard retail prices (net) for engraved glass: 50 x 50 x 80 mm incl. 3D portrait 50 EURkeychain incl. 3D portrait 20 EUR

Taking a 3D laser shop as an example:

Your business is situated in a central pedestrianised zone with high footfall, in a shopping centre or near a tourist attraction.

• Notional sales per day: Blocks sold 50 x 50 x 80 mm: 10 pcs./day Keychains sold 15 x 20 x 30 mm: 15 pcs./day

Based on 24 working days per month, this translates into monthly sales of (net):

19 200 EUR

To determine your profit, you need to work out your monthly costs. These costs primarily relate to the rent for your store, monthly ins-talments for the camera and laser equipment, labour costs, raw materials and other general costs. In order to calculate potential profit, please ensure your estimates are as realistic as possible. If you have any problems or reser-vations about your calculations –

In the event of revocation of the contract we will reimburse the purchase price minus a sum depending on the date to which the delivery dates back. 5.7. Any instructions for use or maintenance not adhered to, changes made in the delivered goods, exchange of parts, or use of materials not in line with the original specifications, shall result in the forfeiture of any warranty claims. This shall apply likewise if performances rendered by us are not used as stipulated in the contract, or are used together with third-party performances, or if the deficiency in the performance results from cons-truction documents furnished by the purchaser, or from other instructions given by him. 5.8. Regarding the sale of software, warranty is given by us for its cor-responding to our programme specifications, provided that such software is installed in the respective systems according to our instructions and that it is used by the purchaser as stipulated in the contract in the combinations specified by us.

6. Liability6.1 . Regarding damages not caused to the delivered good itself, we shall be liable for breach of contractual and non-contractual duties only in case of intent and gross negligence, culpable harm to body, life and health, malice, or for a warranty given. 6.2. In case of breach of essential contractual duties we shall be liable also for slight negligence, which is, however, limited to the damage typical for the contract and which is reasonably foreseeable. 6.3. Claims under the German Product Liability Act shall remain unaffected. 6.4. Liability for loss of data shall be limited to the reproduction costs ty-pically incurred if the purchasermakes regular data backups in relation to risk. In the event that the purchaser should not fulfil his duty set forth under paragraph 9.4, we shall not be liable for any damage resulting from it. 6.5. Any further damage claims of the purchaser shall be excluded.

7. Reservation of Title7.1 . We shall hold title in any goods delivered until all claims, including future and conditional claims, and the balance claim in the current account, have been settled (reserved goods). The purchaser may use the reserved goods for production in his ordinary course of business within the meaning of Sect. 950 of the Civil Code and resell such goods, provided that he is not in default. Neither pledging such goods nor transferring ownership by way of security shall be admissible. If the value of the security provided to us exceeds the claims secured by more than 20 %, we shall release at our discretion part or the total of such security on request.7.2. The purchaser shall insure the goods against the usual risks7.3. Any use for production shall be carried out on our behalf as manuf-acturer without engaging us. We shall have a property share in the new goods in proportion of the invoice value of the reserved goods to the value of the new goods. The purchaser shall keep such items in storage for us free of charge.7.4. Any claims arising with regard to the reserved goods, including all ba-lance claims in the current account, shall already be assigned by way of security by the purchaser to us. The purchaser shall, however, be entitled to collect such claims in his own name for our account, provided that we have not withdrawn such collection authorisation due to the purchaser’s delay in payment. 7.5. In the event of seizures by third parties of the reserved goods, in parti-cular executions, the purchaser shall point out the fact that it is our property and shall inform us immediately. Such third party shall be liable for any costs incurred by us in this regard. Should such third party not be able to satisfy our claims, the purchaser shall be held liable.

8. Industrial Property Rights and Copyrights In the event that, due to the purchaser’s using the performance, third par-ties should assert claims against the purchaser for infringement of indus-

trial property rights or copyrights, the purchaser shall give us immediate written notice. In such case we shall reserve any defence and out-of-court measures to pursue our rights. The purchaser shall give us any support required for this purpose.

9. Software Rights9.1 . Regarding the software, its replacements, supplements, extensions, and accompanying documentation, which is included in our delivery or deliveredat a later date, the purchaser shall be granted an indefinite, non-transferrable and non-exclusive right of use for the internal use of such performance. Any copyrights shall continue to be held by us. 9.2. The simultaneous input of the software delivered by us into, or its use on, more than one piece of hardware shall be inadmissible. The software shall not be modified, copied, or reproduced in any other way, by the purchaser. The production of a security copy marked as such shall be admissible. 9.3. The purchaser shall commit himself to preventing access by his em-ployees and third parties to the delivered software and the accompanying documentation by means of appropriate preventive measures, in particular the safekeeping of the original data carriers and the back-up copies at a place safe from access.

10. Applicable Law, Jurisdiction10.1 . All legal relationships between us and the purchaser shall be exclusi-vely governed by German law, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts on the International Sale of Goods. 10.2.
