Vertical Fastwire

CNC CONTOUR CUTTER

The most versatile machine; cut any shape in any foam

Belt Conveyor Table

The cutting frame stays stationary as the foam moves along a conveyor. This is a motorised positioning belt engineered to move the foam accurately and precisely throughout the cutting process.

Block Detection

A set of sensors that allows the cutting frame to automatically position itself to the front edge of the block. This saves the operator from manually positioning the machine at the start of each cutting job. This feature is standard with this model.

Pneumatic Tension

The abrasive wire requires tensioning to ensure an accurate cut and optimal performance. The original manual tension control has been replaced with a pneumatic self-adjusting tensioning system that allows the ideal tension to be placed on the wire without operator interaction.

Dust Extractor Kits

Dust extractors are large vacuums that remove the dust during the cutting process, minimising the clean-up after jobs. It also helps keep a safer factory for its workers by lowering the amount of airborne dust.

Compatible with a Selection of Abrasive Wires

Three types of abrasive wires have been tested for compatibility and performance with this model. A description and purpose of each wire type can be found on our spare parts page.

OPTIONAL CONFIGURATIONS

A set of sensors that allow the cutting frame to automatically position itself to the front edge of the block. This saves the operator from manually positioning the machine at the start of each cutting job. This feature is standard with this model.

These conveyors automate the entry and exit of foam so the operator does not need to remain at the machine during these processes. They provide a full process-line functionality to the machine to maximise productivity. Some factories have a single operator running three machines because of this feature.

The existing nesting function in Wintech’s Profiler software allows efficient nesting of a single shape. The AutoNEST software option can be used in conjunction with the Profiler software for more efficient nesting where variable quantities of different shapes are required in a single cutting job.

The digitiser tablet can be used for tracing around existing shape templates or actual shapes, creating drawings to be used in the Wintech Profiler software. The drawings can then be conveniently stored on the computer, ready for regular production jobs. This option is ideal for first-time CNC companies, who is looking to automate their manual production flow.

Popular Uses

Custom Contours

Cut custom shapes with computer-controlled accuracy, to ensure quick and quality results every time.

Diverse Materials

This machine is a great choice for companies who work with a wide variety of material types. It can cut through any type of foam that a project requires, from flexible, rigid, semi-rigid to heavy syntactic foams.

Furniture & Packaging Industries
The vertical Fastwire is a common choice for companies that process foam in sheets or thin blocks, such as those found in the furniture or packaging industries.

FAQs

Small machines can simply be wheeled into a shipping container and secured. Larger machines must be dismantled to fit into a container. On arrival at the factory a Wintech technician will come to assemble and commission the machine, and train the operator.

Wintech provides a 12 month / 2000 hours warranty on all machines.

Wintech has authorised agents around the world who have their own service technicians.

Wintech manufactures and supplies a range of wires suitable for a variety of applications.

The machines themselves can operate in a wide range of temperatures. In extremely hot, cold or dusty factories we recommend placing the control cabinet in a separate temperature controlled operator booth. Wintech Fastwire machines are rugged and able to operate on remote sites in temporary buildings. The control cabinet housing the computer and electronics is air-conditioned and pressurised to provide dust isolation.
