Wire cutting for foams and polystyrene
CROMA’s hot wire cutting bows are simple and portable tools with which users can cut many materials such as expanded polystyrene (EPS), extruded polystyrene (XPS) as well as all thermofuse foams (EPP, PU, PE…)
These tools are very popular in the construction and insulation industry because they allow clean and simple cuts of boards or blocks on site and they can be moved easily from one site to another working area.
This hot wire cutting bow is robust, easy to use, light enough but still resistant and has handles to operate the cuts. Manufactured in our factory located in Bournezeau – France with high quality materials, the frame is made of anodized aluminum and the cutting wire, made of a special alloy, has a diameter of 0.5 mm so it is resistant to shocks and outdoor use. Supplied with a new controller box, it is now lighter and even easier to use.
