The Foam Head is a heavy duty tool made for cutting a large range of foam materials up to 86 mm (3 ⅜ in.) thickness. These types of foam are typically used in the protective packaging industry.
The FoamHead is a reciprocating knife designed with characteristics optimal for low density porous material. It runs at a frequency of 4,800 strokes per minute and at amplitude of 4 mm. The great Z-axis control gives an advantage when cutting foam because it ensures consistent partial cut, which is very important with manyfoam 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 material quality. A wide range of blades also makes it suitable for honeycomb and fluted core board.
The FoamHead requires a high traverse clearance
