The Standard series (see photo)
The Standard series models (previously called "Standard"
models) are available in 4 different size configurations. Whether
cutting packaging, foam letters, logos or graphics, the Axis Standard series of
computerized hot wire foam cutters are ideal. Although the Standard series are the
smallest members of the Axis foam cutting machinery, they are as accurate and reliable as
the larger models.
The Axis Standard series cutters are also an excellent way to get into the rapidly
expanding business of custom EPS cutting and converting. The Standard series are ideal for
shops that do not require the ability to load and cut very large blocks of foam or require
the need for the optional turntable and shapeable wire tools.
The Standard series machines are designed and built upon a 3 layer composite bed. The
outside surfaces are finished with a coated aluminium laminate. The micro stepping motors
have proven themselves through thousands of hours of flawless cutting. The entire frame is
produced of precision milled, anodized aluminum.
A motor driven wire trolley on each side of the Axis connects your cutting wire through
the use of our automatic wire tensioner. This wire tensioner ensures that the wire tension
is maintained at all times to allow the Axis to achieve perfect results every time.
Cooling fans are mounted on each side of the wire to control the temperature of the wire
on the outside of your foam (this allows you to achieve very high quality, sharp cuts).
The combination of the wire cooling fan and our own tensioning device is exclusive to the
Axis hot wire foam cutters and allows your Axis to achieve an outstanding cut quality.
The Standard series are designed as tabletop models and should be set upon a table (not
supplied). The Standard series machines are delivered with 4 aluminum weight blocks to be
used as supports to hold the foam board in place.
The Axis Craftsman, Pro and Industrial series all share a common Windows™ based
software interface. This software allows complete control over the cutting process
including the placement of linking lines to connect your objects for cutting. The
electronic controller is connected to your PC via the Com1 or 2 serial port and drives the
X and Y axis. The wire temperature is electronically controlled and is adjustable through
a front knob and a LED numeric display showing wire voltage.
