Compact 4200x1300x3800 mm Foam Block Cutter and Foam Cut-to-Length Machine at 1000 kg

The TDC-01 is a compact foam block cutter for workshops where floor space and power are limited. Overall dimension is 4200*1300*3800 mm, machine weight is 1000 kg, motor power is 6.14 kW, cutting width is 2300 mm and cutting height is 1300 mm. The machine is CE certified.

A block cutter is often the machine that has to fit into an existing plant rather than a new building. The TDC-01 is sized for that: a 4200 mm long, 1300 mm wide footprint and a 1000 kg frame, on a 6.14 kW motor that runs on a standard site supply instead of a dedicated power upgrade.

• Model: TDC-01
• Control: Digital control
• Cutting width: 2300 mm
• Cutting height: 1300 mm
• Motor power: 6.14 kW
• Weight: 1000 kg

1. Measure the bay. Confirm the 4200*1300*3800 mm footprint and the clearance around it.
2. Check the floor. Confirm the floor can take the 1000 kg frame with a loaded block.
3. Confirm the supply. Check the 6.14 kW motor against the available supply.
4. Plan the transfer. Match the conveyor height to the line or the loading point.
5. Set the length. Confirm the cut length on the digital control at commissioning.
6. Cut a test block. Measure length and squareness before production starts.

Check the transfer height before the machine is bolted down. A height mismatch shows up as a step that deforms every block, and correcting it after installation means moving the machine again.

Installation cost is often decided before the machine arrives. A cutter that needs a new bay, a reinforced floor or a power upgrade turns a machine purchase into a building project. The TDC-01 is sized so that most plants can place it in an existing cutting area.

The 1000 kg frame is part of that. It is heavy enough to stay stable through the cut and light enough to sit on a standard industrial floor. The 6.14 kW motor is matched to a normal site supply rather than a dedicated line.

None of that would matter if the machine could not cut a full block. The 2300 mm cutting width and 1300 mm cutting height mean a compact installation still takes the whole block in one pass, so the smaller footprint does not cost throughput.

• Existing bay: 4200*1300 mm footprint fits most cutting areas.
• Standard power: 6.14 kW, no dedicated supply.
• Full block: 2300 mm width and 1300 mm height in one pass.

• Compact footprint: 4200*1300*3800 mm fits an existing bay.
• 1000 kg weight: no special floor reinforcement needed in most plants.
• Standard power: 6.14 kW runs on a normal site supply.
• Full block width: 2300 mm in one pass.
• Simple installation: clear interface dimensions for the line.
• Digital control: length set on the panel, not by a manual stop.
• CE certified: export-ready guarding and electrics.

• Existing plants: a block cutter added to an established cutting bay.
• Small workshops: limited floor space and standard power supply.
• Foaming lines: inline cutting where the line layout is fixed.
• Conversion workshops: first cut before slicing or splitting.
• Export packing areas: blocks cut to container lengths.
• Rental or temporary sites: a machine that can be moved without a rebuild.

Cut-to-length faults are usually position faults, not cutting faults. Check the encoder, the conveyor and the stop before touching the blade, because a length that drifts is almost always a position problem.

Keep the walkway behind the machine clear. A compact installation often means the machine is close to a wall, and that is where the block exit becomes a pinch point.

Stop the conveyor before clearing a jammed block. Reaching between the conveyor and the blade in a tight space is where injuries happen.

• Keep the load and unload ends clear.
• Confirm the transfer height at the start of the shift.
• Check the cut length on the first block.
• Keep the walkway behind the machine clear.
• Stop the conveyor before clearing a jam.

A compact installation leaves less room for maintenance, so the access points matter. Keep the blade guard and the conveyor side panels reachable, and check the blade with the machine isolated.

The frame and mounts should be checked monthly. A machine that is loaded and unloaded in a tight bay is more likely to be bumped, and a loose mount shows up as a non-square cut.

• Check frame bolts and mounts monthly.
• Inspect blade sharpness daily.
• Check conveyor tension and tracking weekly.
• Check the door and guard interlocks monthly.
• Compare motor current with the commissioning record monthly.

The machine ships in a reinforced export crate with the frame, conveyor section and control panel braced for transport.

The shipment includes the footprint drawing, electrical requirements and a commissioning checklist, with remote support during installation.
