What kind of material can be machined by styrofoam cnc router? | Beginner Guide


When talking about mould processing machines, it is easy to think of engraving and milling machine, CNC machining tools, lathes and other mechanical equipment. CNC foam router has just been a popular mold processing equipment in recent years; It can complete the foam mold engraving jobs but the price is not high like the equipments mentioned above. Therefore, the Styrofoam CNC machine is in line with the market demand. Usually a lot of friends asking: What kind of material can be machined by a foam router? Today we are going to talk about it with you.

First of all, the answer to this question cannot be generalized. There are many models for foam mold making cnc machine whose working size can be from 1325 to 5090; they are widely used in automobile foam mold, ship mold, city square sculpture, wedding figures, animal modeling and other industries. Generally speaking, configuration of small foam mold making CNC machine is relatively low. Taking the drive system as example, small size cnc foam mill machine will use same stepping drivers and motors which is used on woodworking cnc router. Some manufacturers even use belt transmission, which will affect the machining speed and accuracy of the machine. Such a small cnc foam milling machine can only be used for processing foam molds which has not high precision requirements. We have a client to do aviation supporting materials; this machine is certainly not suitable for his production requirement. And for customers who processing large foam mold, Styrofoam cnc router with size 2040 or 3050 will be suggested to them. They adopt bus control mode, the international standard spindle, Yaskawa servo driving system, large size linear guide way, and integral casting iron work table. You can see the whole machine configuration is relatively high; that’s why the product processing precision and hardness has a good effect. CNC foam milling machine like this can also be used for processing the foundry pattern, glass steel, gypsum and other materials. A lot of companies who produce pump body and valve body casting mold will use this machine; there are also some friends making glass steel sculptures and gypsum sculptures will choose such machines.

 

In a word, the Styrofoam cnc router machine can process materials like polystyrene foam, wood, glass, steel, gypsum etc.
