Custom-built from the ground up for hot-wire foam cutting

Smart Import

Import DXF and SVG files or draw your own with our built-in CAD tool. Automatic path detection handles the heavy lifting so you can go from file to cut fast.

Kerf Compensation

Precise kerf offset calculations mean cleaner cuts and less wasted material. Set it once per machine profile and every job is dialed in from the start.

Optimized Paths

AI-based algorithm automatically minimizes wire travel time and reduces waste

4-Axis XYUV or XYZA

Full taper cut and 4-axis workflows for tapered shapes, wings, and complex 3D profiles. Cut parts with different root and tip profiles in a single pass.

3D Preview

See exactly what your machine will cut before sending a single line of G-code. Catch errors early and plan cuts with confidence using the built-in 3D visualizer.

Works Anywhere

Run FoamCut in any browser with cloud sync, or download the Windows installer for fully offline use. No internet required after install. No admin rights needed.

The Workflow

Four steps to a perfect cut
