Contour Cutter Options
Horizontal Lathe Axis
The horizontal foam lathe option includes a rotary axis motor driven head, tail stock, rails, motion control components and software to create very complex columns and other foam shapes in a lathe style format. This option converts an existing Xydroid hot wire cutter into a lathe-cutting machine. When finished using this option you can get back to contour cutting in minutes. Many shops must have a separate machine to turn columns in this manner.
Vertical Rotary Axis
This option includes a rotary axis motor driven removable turntable, motion control components and software to create complex 2D and 3D objects. This foam lathe allows fabricators to incorporate standard or rigid hot wire cutting into this coordinated 3rd axis. When finished using this option, simply remove the timing plate and quickly get back to your hot wire cutter.
