Construction

  • The one-piece design with guides built into the table frame allows the system to be transported while assembled and guarantees fast and easy start-up
  • The cutting table is configured initially with a vacuum exhaust, or systems can also optionally be equipped with a water cutting table
  • For highest efficiency of the optional vacuum and filter system, the work area is vacuumed in segments, mechanically switched by the moving machine bridge
  • The material support grid consists of exchangeable arched flat steel elements

Guideways and Drives

  • The selection of components used guarantees high cutting functionality and process safety
  • The machine bridge is driven synchronously from both sides and travels with high dynamics and no oscillation torque
  • Powerful Panasonic AC servomotors guarantee precision contours, with no-maintenance, no-play planetary gears and precise helical gear drives
  • The high-quality linear guides on all axes are robust and accurate, easy to maintain and long-lived

The cutting systems can be equipped with plasma sources from the Hypertherm Powermax or Kjellberg CutFire series. (see Options)

Cutting capacity

  • Kjellberg CutFire 100i: cutting up to 40mm, grooving up to 20 mm
  • Hypertherm Powermax 105 Sync: Cutting up to 38 mm, grooving up to 22 mm
  • Hypertherm Powermax 125: cutting up to 44 mm , grooving up to 25 mm

Cutting head

  • The distance between plasma cutting nozzle and plate surface is determined by the Z axis height setting, which is controlled by an electric arc
  • A built-in sensor-controlled collision guard prevents damage to machine and workpiece
  • A magnetic coupling facilitates plasma burner setup and maintenance work
