MEGABLOCK foam cutter

The MEGABLOCK foam cutter is a machine controlled by a computer capable to cut out any 3D objects out of extruded and expanded polystyrene foams. Cutting is done by a hot wire moving in the X-Y plane through the use of a micro stepping motor controlled by a computer. This allows for making fast and precise cutting of the foam material. The precision control makes it possible to cut objects of nearly any shape given that their thickness is to be the same as the thickness of material used. By designing and cutting various views of one object it is also possible to construct even more complicated 3D objects. A very simple example of this could for instance be the cutting of an airplane model out of Styrofoam. Through the use of a turntable (an additional equipment available with our foam cutters), one can also cut out all the solids of revolution, including the sphere.

3D MASSES
How many times did you face the problem of making complicated 3D logotypes. Any already known method seemed to be unsuitable or too expensive. MEGABLOCK will do everything, your imagination is his only limit. FAIR, THEATRE AND FILM DECORATIONS There is no machine as useful when building fair stalls and film or theatre decorations as MEGABLOCK. Its speed and cutting precision allows for creating every set and stage design in a short time without spending lots of money. ARCHITECTURE ELEMENTS Styrofoam architecture details ( moulds, finials, banisters, keystones, parapet caps, balusters ) covered by strengthening nets and stuccoes become very popular, due to its weight, easy assembly, precision of realization, price and the fact that they are environmentally friendly. CASTING FORMS One of interesting uses of this plotter is production of positive forms used for moulds, in moulding sand, of details from cast-iron and colored metals ( e.g. aluminum, bronze ). This method of production is cheaper and far more precise than the traditional ones. PACKAGES Our machine is irreplaceable in a short-series production of foam packages used to ensure safe transport of electronics and museum or fair exhibits.
