The customer, CU Lighting, had an old cnc plasma tube cutting machine that died, we nursed it back to life by fitting a new control system, the mechanics were old and tired and it was tricky to setup so a few years later a new machine was commissioned. We wanted a minimum setup time between different jobs and a degree of manual positioning was desired. The machine was fitted with a modified Techserv CNC system and a Hypertherm plasma pack. Each carriage can be positioned to suit the job requirements and each carriage is motorised with an individual lift mechanism.
