THERMOCUT is a computer-controlled cutter which uses a titanium wire heated to a very high temperature (approx. 800 degrees Celsius). Hot wire technology allows to cut through many different types of foam. The digital control of working parameters with the possibility of creating your own material libraries result in cutting shapes with unique precision. Wide range of available finishing techniques allows to create illusion of different materials. Completed projects are well looked and not expensive.

With THERMOCUT you can cut any 2d and 3d shape from different types of materials with density up to 60 kg/m3 and allowed to receive heat treatment like polystyrene, Styrodur, extruded polystyrene etc.

Standard equipment:

• multiwire cutter
• electronic controller
• wire supply: 6 rolls of resistant wire
• control software SoftCUT
• user manual
• rotary table (optional for plotters: Pro35, Pro240 and Pro300)
• shape wire adapter (optional on plotters: Pro35, Pro240 and Pro300)

Optional equipment:

• operators panel with LCD
• automatic wire tensioner
• additional cutting wires

Automatic wire tensioner:

Construction:
Element tensioning wire is stepper motor co- working with the spring tensioner through the closed-loop feedback system.

Properties:

• tension roller containing a supply of cutting wire
• wire tension control by means of buttons on the frame plotter
• storing the settings in EEPROM devices’ memory
• tensioner locking switch in a fixed position
• loosing engine switch to help establishing the wire

Applications:
Automatic wire tensioner allows the extreme swings of the cutting arms in plotters with independent arms movement. Option needed for complex 3D designs and cutting roof slants.

An innovative approach to working on a thermal plotter.It provides the functionality of a PC along with the control software in a small, handy housing. Frees the operator from using a desktop computer. The panel enables full control of the machine, from setting cutting parameters, through precise shifting movements in manual mode, to handling files for cutting.
A unique solution is to display a preview of the files to be cut on the LCD panel. This allows for initial verification of the selection of the project to be processed. An additional advantage of the operator panel is the possibility of placing a PC sensitive to dust and conditions prevailing in the production hall in a separate room.
