Slabbers and Downcutters

EPS downcutter

A Downcutter is a stationary foam cutting table that uses an automated vertical moving hot wire grid. This machine has a heavy-duty design and uses a positive drive at all four corners for precision accuracy. This machine comes standard with 10 Long & 20 Short wires. Other options for different block sizes and number of hot wires are available.

EPS slabber

The Slabber / Downcutter Combo machine combines both the EPS Slabber machine and the Downcutter machine together. This machine can perform either or both operations without having to move the foam block more than once. The combination of these two machines is also a great space saver.

EPS slabber as part of an EPS cutting line

An EPS Slabber is used to produce large volumes of EPS foam slabs. These machines use a grid of hot wires that are manually set. These machines are stationary foam tables (the foam does not move). The grid of hot wires moves across the machine and through the foam blocks. This system creates consistently accurate cuts throughout the entire length of the blocks. The harp has a pivoting design which allows cutting in both directions!
