- 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.
