Product Overview
The Superstar CX-1330 (manufactured by Jinan Jinshengxing Machinery Manufacture Co., Ltd.) represents the most efficient way to process large volumes of styrofoam. Because the hot wire vaporizes the foam upon contact, there is zero mechanical drag. This means you can cut intricate, delicate shapes without the material breaking or shifting, and absolutely no foam dust is generated during the process.
Supported by a robust dual-gantry structure and driven by high-speed stepper motors, the CX-1330 delivers smooth, continuous wire movement. It is the industry standard for producing large architectural moldings, insulation blocks, and theatrical set designs quickly and cost-effectively.
Core Advantages
Dust-Free & Smooth Cuts: The heated wire slices through the foam by melting it, resulting in a glass-smooth edge that requires no sanding, while keeping your workshop entirely free of static foam dust.
Massive Working Capacity: With a 3-meter (3000mm) length capacity, it easily handles standard oversized industrial EPS blocks in a single setup, maximizing material yield and production speed.
Heavy-Duty Bed Construction: Built on a bed of thickened, welded square tubes that undergo precision milling. Unlike lightweight aluminum kit-cutters, this 800kg industrial frame guarantees absolute stability and eliminates vibration-induced "ribbing" on the foam surface.
High-Temperature Worktable: The 20mm thick high-density polyester board table offers excellent flatness and resists the high temperatures generated by the wire, preventing table warpage over time.

Detailed Configuration
The X and Y axes utilize dual high-precision 20# square guide rails paired with a 1.25M diagonal gear rack. This robust combination ensures that the gantry moves the hot wire with extreme smoothness, which is critical for maintaining a uniform melting kerf.
The machine is controlled via a dedicated industrial computer cabinet running MACH3. This allows for independent axis control (moving the left and right towers at different speeds), enabling the cutting of tapered shapes, cones, and complex 3D wings or columns.
The 1KVA voltage regulator provides precise control over the wire temperature. Adjusting the heat to match the cutting speed and the specific density of the foam ensures optimal cut quality without over-melting the kerf.
Applicable Industries & Materials

Why Choose Superstar CNC?
Industrial Grade Manufacturing: Unlike many desktop hot wire cutters, the CX-1330 is an 800KG industrial machine built for continuous, 24/7 factory operation.
Easy to Learn: The included operation software features automatic path planning. Once your 2D CAD file is imported, programming the cut is simple and intuitive.
Global Voltage Support: We customize the electrical components (AC220V standard) to match your country's power grid, ensuring plug-and-play installation upon arrival.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this machine cut hard plastics or wood?
A: No. The hot wire machine is exclusively for low-melting-point foams like EPS, EPP, and XPS. It cannot cut wood, plastic, or metal. For those materials, please view our standard CNC Router series.
Q: How do you cut a 3D tapered shape (like a cone)?
A: The MACH3 controller allows for "Independent Axis Control." This means the motor on the left side of the wire can move at a different speed or distance than the motor on the right side, creating angled and tapered cuts perfectly.
Q: Does the cutting wire break easily?
A: We use high-tensile heating wire (typically NiCr or Titanium alloy). While it is a consumable that eventually wears out, it lasts a long time under normal tension and heat. Changing the wire takes only a few minutes, and we provide spare wire with the machine.
