Pneumatic Wire Tensioning comes standard in all MegaPlot foam cutters 3.0-meter wide or wider. It is also available at an additional charge in our 2.5-meter wide units.

 

While the industry standard spring tensioning proves sufficient in narrow machines, once the wire length reaches 3 meters it is almost impossible to stretch ir properly with a spring. That is why all our widest cutters come with Pneumatic Wire Tensioning and TitaniumAlloy Wire which make it possible to increase the wire tension app. 3 times and as a result to double the cutting speed as well as obtain much better cutting quality.

 

Pneumatic Wire Tensioning is available in all SingleWire, DoubleWire and MultiWire cutters 2.5-meter wide or wider.

 

Note: while an air compressor is required to tension the wires in a foam cutter equipped in pneumatic wire tensioning, it is not included. Please make sure to provide your own standard, small size compressor with the tank of at least a few litters (the bigger the tank the less often it will turn on). Recommended pressure is app. 5-6 BAR (0.5-0.6 MPa). You'll need fittings that will fit a plastic/rubber hose-pipe with the inner dia of 4mm and outer dia of 6mm. Please contact us if further details are required.
