Contour CG4000 Double Drive CNC Plate Plasma Cutting Machine with Flame Torch

Equipped with one or several sets of CNC control flame torch, the Wuxi JACK CNC Plasma Plate Cutting machine can cover the widest range of workpiece in terms of material and thickness for plate shape cutting.

1. Form Up and Usage of CNC Plasma Flame Plate Cutting Machine:

1) Form Up of CNC Plasma Cutting Machine:

a) As can be seen from the attached picture, the CG4000 CNC Plasma Cutting machine has three sets of CNC control single cutting torch: One for plasma shape cutting and two for flame shape cutting. Each of the three torches occupies one set of moving carriage solely: 

Cutting torches of Wuxi JACK machine: (Fig.1) 

b) Here we stress that, in CNC-CG series machine, another way of installing cutting torches is to combining plasma cutting torch with one of the flame cutting torch, so that one set of moving carriage can be saved (Less manufacturing cost of the machine). For operation of the latter solution (Combined cutting torches), it is necessary to switch between plasma and flame shape cutting by means of toggle switch:

c) While for the set up shown in the attached first picture: Plasma cutting torch occupies an individual carriage, the operation is simpler during working period. So, which kind of set up to choose is a compromise and depends which factor weighs heavier for customer: Convenient operation or lower cost;

2) Usage of CNC Plasma Plate Cutting Machine:

a) This motor drive gantry moving structure machine also focus on metal plate shape cutting. Accommodating on three sets of CNC cutting torch, customer can have three pieces of workpiece (Same shape and size) cutting in a row;

b) Meanwhile, with add on of CNC flame cutting torch to the machine, the thickness range of plate shape cutting can also got expanded: Plasma shape cutting is for thin and medium  thickness plate (Up to 45mm, majority fall within the range of below 25 mm); And currently flame cutting is the only feasible solution for thick metal plate (Up to 150 mm and special made for 200 mm);

3) Arc voltage type cutting torch height controller plasma cutting:  (Fig.4)

    Capacitance type cutting torch height controller flame cutting: (Fig.5)

a) The workpiece (Metal plates) in often do not have flat surface, especially for long length ones;

b) In plate shape cutting, maintaining constant distance between cutting tip and surface of workpiece is the prerequisite on getting high quality cutting parts. Please check product section of “Plasma and Flame Strip 4m CNC Plasma Plate Cutting Machine” for introduction on capacitance and arc voltage height controller for controlling flame and plasma cutting torch.

2. Daily Use of Plasma Power Supply in CNC Plasma Cutting Machine:

1) Daily using and maintaining of plasma power supply is critical for normal, consistent and high standard running of the machine;

2) In this product section, first we have the topic of Plasma Power Supply Handling in the machine:  (Fig.6)

a) The plasma power supply should be cut off power before moving the CNC Plasma Plate Cutting machine;

b)  The plasma power supply should be upright placement, instead of kept downwards during transportation. Do not have it in inverted placement;  

c)  When being hoisted, the plasma power supply should be kept at upright position, not lying position;

d) During long distance transportation of plasma power supply and machine, the equipment should be protected against infiltration of rainwater / moisture/ scattered placement (The components need to be secured firmly). Use proper packing material, such as foam plastics;

3) Supplementary Notes: You may have interest on machine of plasma cutting to be equipped with strip cutting torches. For this please check product section of “Multi Purpose CG4000 Single Drive Strip CNC Plasma Flame Plate Cutting machine”.
