PU composite sponge is a polymer material widely used in many industries, and is often used in mattresses, sofas, car seats, building sound insulation materials, packaging and other fields. PU composite sponge has the advantages of light weight, good air permeability, strong resilience, etc., but in the processing process, due to its special material, some problems are prone to occur during cutting. Therefore, how to efficiently and accurately cut PU composite sponge has become an important problem that must be solved in production and processing.

Common problems in PU composite sponge cutting:

In the process of cutting PU composite sponge, the following problems are often encountered:

Uneven cutting: The softness and porous structure of PU composite sponge make it easy to be uneven when cutting. Especially when cutting thicker sponge, it is easy to cause edge curling or fluffing.

Deformation after cutting: PU sponge material may deform or warp due to excessive cutting speed or pressure during cutting. This deformation will affect the later use effect and aesthetics.

Burrs on cutting surface: Traditional tool cutting methods often leave obvious burrs, affecting the appearance and quality of the product. Especially in industries with high requirements for details (such as furniture and packaging industries), burrs will affect the overall quality of the product.

Inefficiency: Traditional manual or mechanical cutting methods are usually inefficient, and it is difficult to accurately control the size and shape of the cutting, resulting in large waste and increased production costs.

Cutting accuracy problem: Due to the differences in thickness, density and hardness of PU composite sponge, it is difficult for ordinary cutting equipment to ensure the consistency and accuracy of each cutting, and it is difficult to meet high-demand processing requirements.

These problems can be perfectly solved by a cutting device, that is AOL CNC cutting equipment, which can not only solve all the above problems, but also improve the processing efficiency of PU composite sponge and ensure the cutting quality, which is crucial.

Recommended cutting method for PU composite sponge:

It is recommended to use blade cutting, which is suitable for most soft materials (such as PU composite sponge). It can achieve fast and accurate cutting, especially when cutting thick sponge. The technology of blade cutting is relatively mature and cost-effective.

What should you consider when choosing this type of cutting?

Cutting accuracy and stability

When choosing a digital cutting machine, cutting accuracy is one of the most important indicators. A cutting machine with higher accuracy can effectively avoid material waste and secondary processing after cutting. In addition, the stability of the equipment is also a factor that must be considered. A stable cutting machine can ensure long-term and efficient production without failure.

Applicable materials and thickness range

Different digital cutting machines are applicable to different materials and thickness ranges. When choosing, it is necessary to determine the cutting capacity of the equipment according to production needs. For example, the thickness and density of PU composite sponge are large, and it is necessary to select equipment that can handle multiple thicknesses and can adapt to sponges of different densities and hardness.

Automation and intelligent functions

Efficient and intelligent digital cutting machines can realize automated operation, reduce manual intervention, and improve production efficiency. Including functions such as automatic feeding, automatic cutting path planning, and automatic tool change, it can greatly reduce the work intensity of operators and improve production efficiency.

Post-maintenance and service of equipment

Post-maintenance and service of equipment are also factors that cannot be ignored when choosing. A cost-effective cutting machine must not only ensure cutting quality, but also have a good after-sales service system that can promptly solve problems in equipment production and ensure uninterrupted production.

Price and cost-effectiveness

Price is one of the most important considerations when purchasing equipment. Cost-effective equipment can provide cutting accuracy, efficiency and stability that match the price. In order to achieve the greatest degree of production efficiency, the function and price of the equipment should be considered comprehensively, rather than just pursuing the lowest price.
