The role of composite sponge CNC cutting equipment in customized production
Time:2025-01-16

Composite sponge CNC cutting equipment is an automated equipment specially used for efficient cutting of various composite materials, sponges and related products. This equipment combines advanced CNC technology and high-precision cutting technology and is widely used in industries such as automobiles, aviation, home furnishings, packaging, medical treatment and audio to handle the cutting needs of various types of sponges, foams, rubbers, fabrics and other composite materials.

Sponges and foams are widely used, such as household cleaning tools, bath sponges, cleaning sponges, polishing sponges, mop sponges, etc. There are also uses for upholstered furniture, such as the sofas, office chairs, and mattresses we sit on are also made of sponges. In addition, foams are also widely used in the packaging industry. The lining sponge of the packaging can prevent the product from deformation and bumps.

There are also many products used to cut composite sponges, mainly manual cutting machines, punching machines, laser machines, vibration knife cutting machines, etc.

Manual cutting machines are cheap, but the utilization rate of composite sponges is relatively low, the operation is complicated, and the manual skills of the user are high. Moreover, it is difficult for manual cutting tools to cut special shapes and arcs. It is more suitable for straight line cutting. In addition, manual cutting has a certain risk of injury. This machine is often used to cut mattresses and sofa sponge pads, which are very thick sponges.

Punching machines are expensive, and so are molds. Therefore, they are very suitable for products with a single shape that require mass production. For example, products with a single shape and high production requirements such as bath sponges and cleaning cotton can be processed by making a square or round mold, and many products can be punched out at one time. EVA foam with a relatively high hardness cannot be processed by a punching machine. For thicker EPE foam, the edge cut by the punching machine is not vertical. However, products with larger sizes cannot be processed by a punching machine. It is impossible to make such a large mold for products over one meter long. In addition, punching machines are also very dangerous, and operators often get their hands stabbed.

Since there are many customized products on the market now, cutting, proofing, and small-batch production of special-shaped sponges are more common, and laser machines and vibration knife cutting machines, which are cheaper than punching machines, are used. Laser cutting machines are cheaper than vibration knife cutting machines, but because they are laser-cut, light-colored sponges will have yellow burnt edges, affecting the appearance of the product. In addition, sponges are flammable, and laser cutting poses a considerable fire risk.

The vibrating knife cutting machine is a new type of cutting equipment that has appeared in recent years. It cuts materials through the high-frequency vibration of the blade. It is a physical cutting method. Therefore, the cutting edge is smooth, without yellow edges, and there is no smoke or dust during the cutting process.

Working principle of composite sponge CNC cutting equipment:

CNC system: This is the "brain" of the equipment, responsible for receiving cutting instructions and controlling the movement trajectory of the equipment. The CNC system can automatically generate cutting paths according to different design drawings by cooperating with the computer to ensure the accuracy of the cutting process.

Drive system: Using high-precision servo motors and linear guides, the cutting head is electrically driven to move along the predetermined path to ensure the accuracy of the movement trajectory.

Cutting head: Different cutting heads and blades of different cutting thicknesses are used according to different materials and processing requirements.

Sensor and feedback system: In order to ensure the accuracy and quality of cutting, the equipment is usually equipped with a sensor system to monitor the position of the tool and the cutting material in real time, and provide feedback to the CNC system for adjustment.

Automatic feeding and unloading system: Some high-end equipment is equipped with an automatic feeding device, which can automatically feed the material to be cut into the workbench. After cutting, the automatic unloading system will remove the cut products.

Features and advantages of composite sponge CNC cutting equipment:

High precision and high efficiency: Traditional manual cutting methods often have errors and instability, while composite sponge CNC cutting equipment can complete large-scale, high-precision cutting tasks in a short time, significantly improving production efficiency and reducing labor costs.

Automation and intelligence: CNC cutting equipment is operated through computer programs, and can be automatically programmed according to different product requirements, reducing manual intervention and avoiding human operation errors.

Versatility: This equipment can cut many different types of composite materials, such as sponges, foams, rubber, cloth, etc. It is not only suitable for standard shape cutting in the industry, but also for complex shapes and multi-level cutting to meet customized needs.

Optimize material utilization: Since CNC cutting equipment can accurately control the cutting path, it minimizes material waste and optimizes material utilization.

Flexible design and adaptability: The equipment supports a variety of CAD/CAM design formats, can import different software files, and flexibly adapt to various product design requirements. The operator only needs to program according to the design requirements of the product, and the equipment can execute automatically.

Composite sponge CNC cutting equipment is a very important equipment in modern industry. It can achieve efficient and accurate material cutting in many industries through highly automated and intelligent control systems. With the continuous development of technology, composite sponge CNC cutting equipment will continue to develop in a more efficient, more accurate and more intelligent direction, becoming an indispensable tool for the future manufacturing industry.
