A robotic DIY styrofoam cutter consisting of one rotational and two translational axes. It cuts a variety of shapes out of styrofoam-like materials using a hot wire. This project documents the necessary hardware and software parts.

Don't miss the follow-up project at http://raumschaum.org
Its goal is to further develop hardware and software into an user friendly application.

Features

  • all-in-one: motor controller & GUI software
  • cuts 3D rotationally symmetric objects
  • cuts arbitray 3D objects from *.STL model
  • embedded outline editor
  • 3D (OpenGL) Model Preview
  • embedded easy to use CNC-like command language for advanced users
