The Foam Cutting Unit (FCU) is a heavy-duty tool made for cutting a large range of foam materials up to 50 mm (2 in.) in thickness. These types of foam are typically used in the protective packaging industry.
The FCU has a reciprocating knife designed with characteristics optimal for low density porous material. It works with a stroke length of 4 mm and a frequency of 4,800 strokes per minute. The great Z-axis control gives an advantage when cutting foam as it ensures a consistent partial cut, which is very important for many foam designs.
Support wheels safeguard the user from the sharp blades and improve cutting abilities by applying pressure on top of the foam material. Foam materials can normally be converted at a speed up to about 15 m/min with this tool, depending on the quality of the material. A wide range of blades also makes it suitable for honeycomb and fluted core board.
