20mm rigid rail on all axis. 4,400 lb capacity per bearing block. This provides high rigidity for increased accuracy. Compare to other manufacturers who use v-guide, round shaft, or speed guide liner rails and you will find they have much less capacity. Avoid machines using bearings running on tubing unless it is on a plasma table.
BALLSCREW Z AXIS
Machined aluminum Z axis with 1605 ballscrew. 200mm travel. This allows for 7+ inches of useable Z axis movement. Avoid machines using a lead screw or round shafting unless it is on a plasma table.
MOTOR OPTIONS
Nema 23 180 watt integrated servo motor or nema 34 integrated closed loop stepper motor. Nema 34 stepper motors also available with separate drivers for use with Planet CNC controller. Planet CNC does not recommend using integrated driver motors.
GANTRY BEAM
We use a 3" x 6" gantry beam on all of our tables. This provides for less torsional deflection when the router is in the center of the gantry. Smaller gantry beams have more deflection which causes less accuracy and more chatter in the finished part. Compare beam sizes between manufacturers before purchasing.
CABLE TRACK WIREWAYS
Cable track wireways are used for cable management. They are easy opened for adding cables and center dividers separate the plasma torch or spindle power cable from the table wiring to prevent electrical interference.
GEAR RACK
Nema 23 straight or helical rack with 1" diameter gears. Nema 34 helical rack with 1.5" diameter gears.
DM800 HANDHELD PENDANT
Router controller which does not require a computer to be connected to the machine. Built in MPG for easy gantry movements to zero machine before cutting. Simply copy your gcode files to a USB drive, plug into controller, load file, zero part, and start cutting.
OPTIONAL MASSO CONTROLLER
Customer can supply their own Masso controller to be integrated at no extra charge. The cost of the mounting arm and other components offset the cost of the handheld pendant. This does not require a PC to run the table.
PROMA MYPLASM CONTROLLER
Plasma tables include a Proma Myplasm control package. This can be run from a laptop to save money or the control station with mini computer and monitor can be included on the enclosed base model. This is a Windows PC based system.
OPTIONAL PLANET CNC ROUTER CONTROLLER
The table can be supplied with a Planet CNC router control package. This can be run on a laptop or computer on the open leg table or can be purchased with a control station, mini computer, and monitor on the enclosed base table. This is a Windows PC based system.
OPTIONAL UCCNC CONTROLLER
The table can also be supplied with a UCCNC controller and software.
