Vortex 3D Head

The fully automated plasma support enables very precise bevelling and chamfering in a single sheet cutting process. Angle of rotation +/- 540° and head angle deflection +/- 52°, makes our cutting machine a universal tool able to work in three dimensions together with preparing welding phases on Y, V and K. Vortex 3D cutting head is equipped with sensors: anti-collision, electrical/mechanical touch and height sensor. This allows using technologies such as: Contour Cut®, Contour Cut Speed®, Diameter Pro® and True Hole®.

Fume exhaust system

Fume exhaust system is used to eliminate potentially dangerous fumes and dust by-products of thermal cutting operations. We offer models with filter area within the range 80 to 240 m2 and efficiency up to 15.000 m3/h. The optional spark extinguishing system guarantees damping down glowing embers and provides a longer lifetime of filter cartridges.

Automatic pallet table

Exchangeable pallet table consists of two working areas which enable the possibility of alternate entering and departing the working area allowing the unloading of finished elements and loading new material. Pallet table is equipped with belt feeder responsible for collecting elements which are to small to retain on the grate. The table is equipped with safety laser gates to realize the required safety of work.

Drilling

Drilling device is utilized for spot drilling in the cutting elements to preparing thread holes. In many manufactures it successfully replaced the manual spot drilling which was performed at a great cost of time and labor.

Punch marking

The punch marking device is mounted on the special support. The marking system is permanently applying the text inscription on sheet metals. The marking is performed by the tempered needle which is punching on the marked area.

Plasma marking

Marking lines, inscriptions and shapes on the metal sheet - facilitates welding and forming according to specified shapes. Marking is also used in technological description for traceability of some elements as it is the DIN-EN 1090 Standard requirement.

ESR System

Optional device that can operate outside the cutting machine’s working area, utilizing plasma or oxygen head. The gantry’s special extension allows unimpeded operation of the carriage over the rotator which controls the direction of pipe movement. The rotator is equipped with special gear with rotary head to cut the pipes of 50-900 mm diameter.

Gantry extension

Gantry extension broadens the machining capability of the large size elements placed in extended area. For quick and easy adjustment extended area is equipped with an additional remote control with all necessary functions.
