CNC platform introduced for cutting applications

The EDGE® Connect CNC platform now is available from Hypertherm. It features the newest version of the company’s Phoenix™ software coupled with SureCut™ technology for cutting applications.

The PLC Connect™ software-based operator’s console and embedded PLC allow for increased customization of a cutting machine. Setup through an EtherCAT communication platform and custom software configuration allow for up to 12 axes through an online configurator. The hardware platform is the foundation, and software selections enable the CNC platform to be set for various cutting applications.

In addition, cutting machine manufacturers can develop their own operator consoles and auxiliary programs using the Soft Op Con API and PLC Connect.
