Foam Cutting Unit
Dedicated C Series position for cutting a wide range of foam materials.
Foam materials
What is it used for
The Foam Cutting Unit is a dedicated tool position on the Kongsberg C Series, built for cutting a large range of foam materials up to 50 mm thick, commonly used in protective packaging. Its reciprocating knife, combined with precise Z-axis control, ensures consistent partial cuts. Support wheels apply pressure on the foam, improving cutting performance while protecting the operator from sharp blades.
Important difference between series: on Ultimate, there is no separate Foam Cutting Unit position. The same Foam Knife Tool mounts in the Heavy-Duty Tool Position instead.
- High-speed cutting of a wide range of foam materials
- Large selection of specially designed blades
- Support wheels stabilize material during cutting
- Dedicated position on C Series, so it doesn't tie up the Heavy-Duty or Fast Tool position
