Shapeable Wire Tool
The Shapeable Wire Tool uses a special 0.03” (0.9 mm) diameter bendable wire to cut
into the foam. The wire heating is controlled through a separate electronic controller
while the X and Y movements are still controlled by the main Controller. As the shapeable
wire is much thicker than the regular wire it also takes longer to heat up before it can
be used. When the software is set up for cutting with the Shapeable Wire Tool the
wire is preheated before starting the cutting operation.
The Shapeable Wire Tool can be used with a single axis movement, in conjunction with a
two-axis movement or simultaneously with all three axis’. Combining all three axis’ in one movement will give you the ability to create “turned” objects
such as a bolt or a tapered screw. By using a two axis’ movement plus the turntable
separately you can create a fluted column with the flutes spaced at precise locations. A
single axis movement will give you the ability to cut out a single groove or trench.
The Shapeable Wire Tool can be pivoted 360° and can be oriented vertically or
horizontally. The Tool can be easily installed in a few minutes without having to remove
the standard cutting wire and in no way affects the cutting or operation of
your cutter.
