Double multiple wire harp
For the horizontal cutting, the EPS foam sheet squaring machine is designed for the mounting and millimetric adjustment of up to 60 wires, also offering tilt adjustment to prevent the formation of uneven steps due to the falling of the cut material. Meanwhile, for vertical cutting, it is equipped with a harp that supports up to 20 wires.
With these features, the squaring machine proves to be an indispensable tool for companies looking for efficiency and quality in trimming and sectioning expanded and extruded polystyrene blocks.
Automatic wire placement
The positioning of the wires is done precisely and quickly, minimizing the manual intervention of operators.
This not only optimizes setup times, but also ensures greater consistency and uniformity in cutting results.
Finally, the ease of use of the system allows for quick training of personnel, making the machine accessible even to those with less experience in the field.
SQ Work station
The foam sheet cutting machine comes with a work station that offers a complete interface to operate the machine safely and accurately.
It includes power switches and an emergency stop button for immediate halts which grants maximum safety.
The temperature and speed adjustments are made simple and intuitive with dedicated potentiometers, while the touch screen panel allows for precise and customizable settings of the working parameters.
SQ HMI full touch screen
The touch screen system allows for advanced and customized management of the cutting operations.
It is possible to create tailor-made programs, combining upward movements and horizontal cuts for precise processing.
The fast positioning and selective activation of pneumatic pistons ensure secure material clamping, while the cutting wires only activate during movement to save energy.
The system maintains a constant speed up to the set value, automatically accelerating for quick positioning of the next material.
Additionally, extra operations can be programmed to meet specific needs.
