The PythonX 6-axis robotic arm has the freedom and versatility to cut and cope intricate shapes, yet it's a rugged 'workhorse' designed for harsh industrial environments. This same robot is used in 24/7 automotive assembly and welding, so you know it's reliable. Important features include:

Plasma cutting is performed with Hypertherm's HyDefinition torch technology, featuring improved arc stability and energy for precise, yet powerful cutting. It's powered by the Hypertherm HPR 260 power supply, offering consistent cut quality with a longer life for consumables. Also included are:

Both the Infeed and Outfeed Conveyors consists of heavy duty frames supporting 4" OD drive rollers that are individually driven by serpentine chain for positive drive. The conveyors use variable frequency drive for infinitely variable speed control.

Heavy-duty drag chain cross transfer conveyors can be placed alongside both the Infeed and Outfeed conveyors to accumulate and transfer material. These optional cross transfer arrangements consist of at least four stations driven by a single variable speed AC motor through a common line shaft. The chain strands pass between feed conveyor rollers, dragging material across the rollers and to (from) the cross transfer legs.

Cross transfer control is through a manual pushbutton station.

The high-speed Measuring Cart travels the length of the Infeed Conveyor, plus the length of the robot work envelope, to position material for cutting. The Cart travels on precision, hardened and ground linear bearing rails, and is driven by a closed loop servo motor utilizing a rack and pinion drive arrangement:

The Plasma Cutting Center houses the overhead robot, torch, cutting 'table' and workholding clamps.  Made from heavy HSS tube, this 10' x 10' structure is extremely rigid to help maintain accuracy and repeatability over time.

The passline height is 28" and the entire assembled Center weighs 7700 lbs. It can easily accommodate various shielding and ventilation configurations.
