Robotic Sculpting and Carving for Foam/ Clay/ Ice

Industries & Use Cases

Our robotic sculpting and carving systems are ideal for industries that rely on large-scale, high-detail foam sculpting:

• Themed Entertainment & Attractions – Theme parks, museums, and immersive experiences demand high-quality foam sculptures for props, set pieces, and animatronic elements.

• Experiential Marketing & Trade Shows – Custom brand activations and event displays come to life with precision-sculpted foam elements.

• Film & TV Production – Set designers use foam sculpting for backdrops, props, and practical effects.

• Architectural & Art Installations – Artists and architects leverage robotic foam sculpting and carving for large-scale sculptures and design elements, including decorative architectural concrete.

• Signage & Retail Displays – Custom foam-carved signage and displays make products stand out in 3D lifelike states.

• Artistic/ Architectural Concrete Casting - Create architectural assets that bear the appearance of work done by highly skilled stone masons.

Types of Foam Used

Different types of foam are selected based on the project's needs:

• Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) – Affordable, lightweight, and easy to carve; ideal for large sculptures and set pieces.

• Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) – Denser and smoother than EPS, offering better moisture resistance and finer detail.

• Polyurethane (PU) Foam – Rigid and durable, allowing for intricate details and repeated handling.

• Polyisocyanurate (PIR) Foam – Fire-resistant and sometimes used in specialty applications.

Coatings & Finishing for Foam Sculptures

Since raw foam is fragile, many sculptures are coated for added strength and texture. Common finishing methods include:

• Polyurea Coatings – Provide impact resistance and weatherproofing.

• Epoxy Resins – Offer a smooth, paintable surface.

• Plaster or Fiberglass – Add durability and texture for specific applications.

Why Robotic Sculpting & Carving for Foam/ Clay/ Stone Ice?

Compared to traditional hand carving or CNC routers, robotic sculpting/ carving offers significant advantages:

• Speed & Efficiency – Drastically reduces sculpting time while maintaining precision.

• Large-Scale Capabilities – Easily handles oversized pieces without the need for multiple “sliced” smaller sections.

• High Precision & Repeatability – Delivers intricate detail with accuracy that manual methods can’t match.

• Versatile & Adaptable – Can be used with various foam types and coated for added durability.

• Seamless Integration – Works with 3D modeling software for direct translation from digital designs to physical models.
