Foam Cutting Machine with Milling Tool SL1625FM CNC Cutter

Beyond the Cut: The SL1625FM Foam Cutting & Milling Machine

Simple through-cuts are not enough for today's advanced applications. Creating custom tool inserts, multi-level packaging, and detailed prototypes requires creating pockets, grooves, and chamfered edges. Traditionally, this means cutting the outline on one machine and then moving the part to a separate, manual routing station. This two-stage process is slow, prone to error, and drives up labor costs, compromising both your efficiency and the quality of your final product.

The SL1625FM Foam Cutting & Milling Machine is the integrated solution. It combines two critical fabrication processes—high-frequency knife cutting and high-speed milling—into one powerful, automated workflow. Now you can produce complex, multi-dimensional foam components with unmatched precision and speed, all on a single machine.

Core Advantages: Engineered for Complex Foam Fabrication

The SL1625FM is purpose-built to give you complete control over the geometry of your foam parts.

1. Integrated Cutting & Milling: One Machine, Endless Possibilities

This is the heart of the SL1625FM's power. The dual-tool head allows the machine to intelligently switch between functions in a single program:

• Oscillating Knife: Slices cleanly through foam to create precise perimeters and through-cuts without material compression.

• High-Speed Milling Tool: Excavates material to create pockets at specific depths, carves grooves and channels, engraves part numbers, and adds chamfered or rounded edges. This single-workflow process eliminates part handling between stages, drastically reducing production time and eliminating alignment errors.

2. Flawless Precision for a Perfect Fit

Whether you're creating a snug pocket for a delicate instrument or a precise groove for a gasket, accuracy is paramount. The SL1625FM is built on a rigid frame and driven by high-performance Japan servo motors to deliver a repeatable cutting tolerance of ±0.1mm. A powerful vacuum pump holds the material firmly to the table, preventing any shifting even during aggressive milling operations, ensuring every feature is exactly where your design intends it to be.

3. Streamlined CAD-to-Part Workflow

Turn your digital designs into physical parts with incredible ease. The SL1625FM works directly with your existing CAD and vector files (SolidWorks, AutoCAD, AI, etc.). Our intuitive software automatically generates the optimal toolpaths for both the cutting and milling operations. Combined with the included intelligent nesting software, you can maximize material yield while minimizing programming time, making your entire operation leaner and more profitable.
