The Shape Cutting machines with hot wires for the cut of shapes with 2 and 3 axis produced by Nuova IDROPRESS S.p.A. present
some interesting novelties: in order to make the machine maintenance always easier and at the reach of a major number of
technicians, it was decided to install on the machines motorizations and control systems more standard. As well known, the
functioning principle of the machine with 2 axis is based on the contemporaneous movement of a conveying belt on which the blocks
are laid (horizontal movement - axis x) and of a wire-holder frame (vertical movement – axis y).
The movement now depends on asynchronous motors equipped of inverter directly controlled by the same PLC that runs the normal
programming of the machine: therefore both the numeric control and the brushless type motorizations have been eliminated. All this
allows to leave unchanged the standard of precision in the movement of the conveyor belt and of the wire-holder frame, releasing
though the machine from the use of motors and control systems of difficult availability on the market and for which is necessary the
employment of purposely trained technicians for the programming operations.
