CNC gantry machine offers four profiling
process
Novel gantry machine offers a four profiling process capability - waterjet, plasma cutting, oxyfuel cutting and plasma marking - all programmed through one CNC system.
Esab Automation has introduced the only waterjet gantry currently available with four process capability - waterjet, plasma cutting, oxyfuel cutting and plasma marking All the process parameters are set via the machine's CNC control

Waterjet profiles and cuts rapidly
A CNC waterjet cutting machine is helping aUK fabricator to achieve a much faster turnaround on the profiles and fabrications.
The waterjet gantry features underwater plasma/waterjet cutting with height control.
When machining a component, the process can be automatically switched without any need for operator intervention.
Similarly oxyfuel and waterjet cutting can be carried out on the same part without intervention.
These two dual process options are contained within the machine's single gantry to provide the optimum cutting process combination dependent upon the type of component to be profiled - its material, required quality and accuracy of cut and production throughout requirements.
Adding a plasma marking capability allows three different processes to be used on a single part.
If required plasma marking/waterjet/plasma cutting can be used on a single part program to provide lower costs per part. Request a free brochure from ESAB Cutting Systems ...
