3000 with Carved Arches, Caps and Bases
The 3000 Automated Foam Shaper cuts column caps and bases, standard arches, and it is truly a unique machine because of its ability to also carve irregular curves. Planters, bowls and ‘S’-shaped curves can be made on this machine. The Automated Foam Shaper is a high output production machine. Architectural foam shaping in 3-D has never been easier, or more complete.

Column Cap and Base High Output Technique
Start with a square foam core (cut out of cap/base where structural beam would be).
Position each half on the square core and run through the hot wire. As the first one is going through the wire, place another half behind it ready to complete the cycle, and repeat this process.
Finished cut caps and bases are ready for the next step.
