Plasma cutting of metals is widely used and is in high demand among customers for the manufacture of a variety of finished parts, as well as preliminary cutting of sheet or tube products. High efficiency, cut quality and speed of order fulfillment are the main advantages of this technology. А CNC plasma cutting (numerical control) on machine tools equipped with a special independent portal for laying (holding) the workpiece to be processed additionally has a whole set of advantages that the customer should be aware of when choosing a manufacturer.
Design and operation of the gantry machine
Gantry plasma cutting machines are available in the arsenal of only large manufacturers, due to the fact that they require a lot of space for installation and high power during operation. They are equipped with:
- An additional surface in the form of a desktop on which the workpiece is placed.
- Double rack and pinion drive (one on each side) for synchronous surface movement, eliminating deformation of the workpiece surface.
- The power unit is mono-drive, two-drive or stepping.
- CNC, which controls the operation of the device according to the specified parameters in automatic mode.
The use of a plasma gantry machine for cutting black or stainless steel sheets with a thickness of up to 80 mm or packed in a bundle of thinner sheets is considered to be especially effective. But, it can work with programs with a complex (artistic) cut, while maintaining high accuracy and specified parameters.
You can get more detailed information about the technical capabilities of the portal device plasma machine using the official website of the company, which has this type of equipment in its arsenal and successfully uses it to fulfill the most complex orders. The shortest terms of execution of both finished parts and cutting of blanks, as well as high quality are confirmed by many years of experience and an impeccable reputation.
