  • Hot Wire Cutting

A thin piece of resistance wire has a low voltage passed across it. This heats the wire. A piece of expanded thermoplastic material (normally polystyrene) is pushed onto the wire. The heat locally melts the material, collapsing the air pockets that it contains and allowing the wire to pass through. In this way the expanded material can be cut cleanly.
