Hotwire

Hot wire cutting is a method of fabricating foam that uses a shaped wire that is heated until it is glowing red and then passed through the foam. Hot wire cutting gives us the capability to shape the outside edges and inside configuration of a part.

Water Jet

Water jet cutting is a process that uses a fine stream of water under ultra high pressure, 55,000 psi, as the cutting edge. The equipment is computer controlled with multiple heads for high yield and tight part nesting allowing maximum material utilization. Our large bed size, 72" x 120", allows us to process full size sheets of any of our in-house materials.

Drilling

We have both vertical and horizontal drills that allow us to cut an ID/OD part from most of our in-house materials.

The maximum ID depth of our largest drill is 36". The maximum OD drilled is an 11" diameter.

Buffing

Buffing is basically a grinding process that allows us to contour the inside or the outside surface of a part.

We have the ability to buff parts up to an 8" diameter.

Pad Printing

Pad printing is a process that transfers ink directly to the surface of the foam. This allows us to print part numbers, logos or other information on many of our in-house materials. The cell structure of the foam will have an effect on the definition of the image. We are limited to a print area of 4.3" in diameter.

Lamination

Our lamination department is where we do assembly work and apply adhesive packages. Our heat laminator allows us to apply pressure sensitive adhesive transfer packages to most of our in-house materials. This can be done either in sheet or roll form.
