Hotwire

CNC CONTOUR CUTTER

Wintech Hotwire machines are perfect for sheeting, slabbing, or profile cutting EPS and XPS foam with precision. They use an electrically charged wire to vaporise the material, resulting in clean, dust-free cuts without physical contact. This not only minimises handling time but also creates a cleaner workspace. The user-friendly Profiler software automates cutting tasks, adding efficiency to customers’ operations.

Fully Automated Cutting

Wintech machines are fully automated CNC cutters, ensuring accuracy and repeatability while eliminating manual errors, slow turnovers and operational risks. One operator can easily load a cutting drawing on the computer and start the cut. It can run subsequent jobs automatically for unattended operation and shut off at the end of a job/queue.
