Description

4-axis CNC hot wire foam cutter

The PLOT 250 by Nettuno Sistemi is a CNC hot wire cutting machine with 4 independent axes and a vertical turntable, designed for companies that need high output in EPS, XPS and rigid foam without much floor space. Its 2,500 x 1,250 mm cutting area and 2,000 mm wire let you work standard market blocks across their full extent.

It combines reliability, ±0.05 mm accuracy, ease of use and productivity in an open powder-coated steel structure. It is the choice of construction, decoration, scenography and packaging companies looking for a versatile, affordable machine that handles small and medium runs as well as large-scale orders.

Applications of the PLOT 250 cutting machine

Full EPS blocks turned into architectural parts, signs and packaging

Thanks to its 4 independent axes and 2,000 mm wire, the PLOT 250 produces parts of every type and size, in series or to order:

  • Construction and architecture: cornices, columns, capitals, mouldings and insulating panels for façades and interiors.

  • Signage and lettering: volumetric letters and logos, signs and 3D commercial displays with a uniform finish.

  • Scenography and window dressing: sets for film, TV, theatre and events, themed settings and large-format shop windows.

  • Interior design and decoration: sculptures, ornamental elements and decorative pieces for residential, commercial and industrial projects.

  • Packaging, moulds and prototypes: custom packaging for fragile products, prototypes and models cut with repeatable accuracy.

How the PLOT 250 cutting machine works

Independent X-Y and X1-Y1 axes for complex geometries

The two carriages of the PLOT 250 move independently on recirculating ball guides, so each end of the wire follows its own path. The Nettuno software manages the 4 independent axes function with manual path association and nesting, solving large, complex shapes in a single cycle.

2,000 mm wire that uses the entire standard block

With a 2,500 x 1,250 mm cutting area and a 2,000 mm wire, the machine easily cuts standard market blocks of approximately 1,000 x 1,200 x 2,000 mm. The operator sets the depth of each cut according to the project rather than the system's limits, and can work the block from every side.

Vertical turntable for polystyrene turning

The vertical turntable turns polystyrene into columns, spheres and three-dimensional sculptures. It unlocks software functions such as turning with rotation adapted to the diameter, circular text or logos and 3D lathe work.

Nettuno Cutter control, CorelDraw and handheld keypad

The Nettuno Cutter interface lets you move the axes with a physical or virtual joystick, save positions, set pauses at corners and monitor wire integrity by microprocessor. It includes a CorelDraw licence and a handheld controller for operating right beside the machine.

Structural design of the PLOT 250 cutting machine

Open frame that makes loading full blocks easy

The PLOT 250 adopts the open structure Nettuno introduced over 10 years ago with the Infinity model. The frame leaves the table freely accessible, so loading and unloading full EPS blocks is convenient and the operator can process any type of cut.

Two sliding rollers to position EPS effortlessly

The machine features two sturdy rollers that make it easy to move polystyrene blocks onto the work table. Less manual handling means shorter set-up times between cycles.

Powder-coated steel in a 400 kg assembly

The entire frame, like the table top, is made of powder-coated steel, ensuring years of reliable performance. Stepper motors and ball guides move the axes at 13 m/min with ±0.05 mm accuracy within a 3,200 x 2,400 mm footprint.

Nettuno accessories to groove, section and complete the cutting station

The PLOT 250 comes with an operator console and accepts accessories that multiply its possibilities:

  • Shapeable wire: a profiled wire for carving grooves on shaped forms and creating unique details a straight wire cannot achieve.

  • Wedges software: develops curved cuts by sections from a DXF file, with 3D simulation and saved sections to repeat the cut.

  • Dell PC and monitor: complete the workstation to get the most out of the PLOT 250.

  • Operator console: a solid stand that provides a secure space for the PC next to the machine.

Materials compatible with the PLOT 250 cutting machine

EPS, XPS and rigid foams processed across the full block

The PLOT 250 cuts polystyrene and rigid foams with clean, even edges, both for one-off parts and for series:

  • Expanded polystyrene (EPS): cornices, mouldings, insulating panels, packaging and large stage sets.

  • Extruded polystyrene (XPS): thermal insulation parts for windows and doors and architectural elements.

  • Rigid foams: sculptures, 3D letters and decorative elements with precise details.

PLOT 250 compared with the CREAM 200 and DOUBLE CUT

Within the Nettuno Sistemi range, the PLOT 250 is a clear step up from the CREAM 200: from 2 axes to 4 independent axes, from a 700 mm to a 2,000 mm wire and from 10 to 13 m/min. It shares the 2,500 x 1,250 mm cutting area with the DOUBLE CUT, but with a single wire, making it the most balanced option when the block does not need to be cut on all four sides simultaneously.

High output without a large production hall

The PLOT 250 is the ideal combination for those who need to produce a lot but lack a large facility. It is perfect for small and medium runs and also takes on larger projects without significant additional costs. It is the result of feedback from Nettuno customers worldwide and the research of its engineering team.

Nettuno Sistemi quality and BERMAQ technical service

The PLOT 250 is manufactured by the Italian company Nettuno Sistemi and marketed by BERMAQ as official distributor. The BERMAQ team advises on the right configuration, supports commissioning and trains operators. Its after-sales service, with specialised technicians working locally and globally, resolves any issue as quickly as possible and offers preventive maintenance to extend the machine's working life.
