Custom X,Y, and Z Axis Sizes


Custom cutting configurations are easy with Hotwire Direct. Cutting capacity is measured in feet by the X, Y, and Z axis. X is the horizontal (left to right) length, Y is the vertical (up and down) height, and Z is the wire length.

Hotwire Direct: CNC Machine XYZ Sizing Coordinates

We make machines as small as 4-4-4 and as large as 16-8-16. The default size is the 8′ x 4′ x 8′ machine, which is capable of cutting two standard 8′ long blocks of foam side by side. (Foam blocks can come in longer sizes)

Extra Wires


The 8300/8600 CNC come standard with 2 wires, while the 8700 CNC comes with 6 wires. We can also ‘build to suit’ when it comes to wire capacity.
