Plastifoam offers computerized foam die cutting services for packaging and shipping applications using varying densities and foam colors. We work with Polyethylene (PE), Polyurethane (PU), and Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) foam, custom die cut in all shapes and sizes. Sometimes a combination of foam is the best solution.
Expanded polystyrene is a light weight and 98% air and commonly used as an insulator against thermal as well as acoustic applications. It is light weight and easy to handle making it a perfect building insulator. Polystyrene is extremely cost effective when compared against other similar materials such as XEPS (extruded polystyrene). Request PDF Computer controlled machine for cutting expanded polystyrene The paper presents a synthesis of a computer controlled machine with two degrees of freedom for cutting and forming.
We fabricate custom cut foam blocks, sheets (thin or thick), planks, pads, convoluted foam sets, and end caps in production quantities. For pre-production samples and prototyping, we have a DT3000 CAM table to work alongside our CAD system. This machine is capable of cutting both foam and corrugated material.
Plastifoam can recommend the best foam choice based upon:
- The fragility of your product
- Handling and transportation conditions
- Cushioning requirement calculations
- Vibration assessments
- Product design considerations
Foam materials are available in recycled, antistatic, soft, rigid, thick, thin, perforated, scored, tear apart, and custom shapes in a variety of colors and densities.
