What is CNC Foam Cutting?
These smart machines follow digital blueprints created from CAD dessins et modèles, translating them into movements so precise they make hand-cutting look like using a sledgehammer for surgery. The beauty of this process is how it completely eliminates those frustrating human errors.
Instead, you get identical pieces every single time through perfectly controlled cutting movements and feed rates. When comparing traditional foam cutting to CNC methods, one does it with dramatically better precision and in a fraction of the time — CNC foam cutting.
