The FABLAB has gained a new machine!
The CNC hotwire foam cutter is a 4 axis machine that uses a heated piece of wire to melt through foam blocks to accurately produce foam parts. The cutter turns simple DXF files into extruded foam parts using HWFF software to generate g-code.
Some of the applications include:
- Aerofoils
- Simple composite molds
- Signs
