Frequently asked questions

How do you cut foam without compressing or damaging it?

Accurate foam cutting depends on matching the blade and cutting method to the foam type, density and thickness. Kongsberg offers dedicated foam cutting tools designed to stabilize the material and produce clean, controlled cuts.

How thick can foam be cut on a Kongsberg cutting table?

The maximum thickness depends on the table and tooling configuration. The X Series FoamHead can process foam materials up to 86 mm thick, while dedicated foam cutting configurations are also available for the C Series.

Can Kongsberg cutting tables make partial cuts in foam?

Yes. Precise Z-axis control enables consistent partial cuts in foam, which is particularly useful when creating protective packaging designs, inserts and other applications that require controlled cutting depths.

Can foam core board be cut at an angle or V-notched?

Yes. Dedicated Kongsberg tooling supports angled cuts and V-notches in suitable foam core board materials, enabling dimensional displays, structures and other applications that require accurate folding or assembly.
