Uniframe plasma cutting system has compact footprint

June 17, 2008

AKS Cutting Systems has introduced the tru-kut heavy-duty, 5-ft. by 10-ft. plasma cutting system. The rigid, fully welded steel frame provides a stable platform, the company reports.

Single setup machining of the frame and mounting surfaces helps improve system accuracy. The uniframe design provides a compact footprint and allows for quick installation without any special floor preparation.

The system features the Edge Ti CNC and includes touchscreen graphics display, onboard true shape nesting, and remote diagnostics/help capability.

The air downdraft cutting table includes three clean-out doors on each side and a parts catcher to catch small parts falling through the cutting slats.

Digitally controlled, brushless servomotors and a high-precision motion system with helical, precision-ground rack and pinions and linear guides provide quick acceleration, motion smoothness, and accuracy, according to the manufacturer.
