Epic Precision: how every piece of film is cut before the crew arrives

Video poster: Epic Precision — Epic’s proprietary film cutting and kitting process

Epic Precision is Epic’s proprietary cutting process department. Every piece of 3M film is measured, nested and cut by machine, driven by PaneCast, then labeled and kitted in installation order, so the crew arrives with the job already cut and works room to room with no cutting on site.

On security film a hand-cut nick is a tear point: when the glass breaks, the film rips open from it like a sheet of paper. Epic Precision, Epic’s proprietary cutting process department, in service since 2023, removes that human error before the film reaches the glass.

Epic invested over half a million dollars developing the machine and the software behind it.

What is said in this video

Every window Epic works on starts here, in a department we call Epic Precision. Before film ever leaves our shop, every piece is measured, nested, and cut by machine, driven by PaneCast, Epic's own proprietary software. Here is why that matters. Handcut film can carry a nick along the edge. Most installers hide it under the sealant. It is still there, and it is the tear point. When glass breaks, the film opens right there. Epic Precision takes the human error out of the cut, and cuts every piece tighter to the window opening than any hand ever could. Labeled and kitted in installation order, so our crews arrive with the job already cut. No rolls on site, less time in your building. You are watching safety film. We cut every film we install this way, in both of our Epic Precision departments.
