Description

Description
The Plasma-Jet AirPro Compact series delivers precise plasma cutting with low operating costs. Designed as an economical solution for single-part production and small series manufacturing, these compact machines are suited to workshops requiring a small footprint and reliable, easy-to-operate equipment.

Highlights
  • Compact design for fast commissioning
  • Compatible with air-plasma sources from Hypertherm or Kjellberg (optional)
  • Improved CNC performance via EtherCAT
  • Professional nesting software included
  • Supplied with vacuum table; optional water cutting table

Construction
  • Monobloc frame with integrated guides allows transport of the machine assembled and ensures quick commissioning
  • Cutting table prepared for connection to extraction; water table available as an option
  • Working area extracted by mechanically switched segments on the moving bridge for efficient filtration and extraction
  • Material support grid made of replaceable curved flat steel elements

Guides and drives
  • Selected components ensure cutting functionality and process reliability
  • Bridge driven synchronously on both sides for dynamic motion without tipping torque
  • Powerful AC servomotors with backlash-free planetary gearboxes and precision rack drives for contour accuracy
  • High-quality linear guides on all axes: robust, precise and durable

Plasma sources / cutting capacity (examples)
  • Kjellberg CutFire 100i: cutting up to 40 mm, piercing up to 20 mm
  • Hypertherm Powermax 105 Sync: cutting up to 38 mm, piercing up to 22 mm
  • Hypertherm Powermax 125: cutting up to 44 mm, piercing up to 25 mm

Cutting head
  • Nozzle-to-sheet distance maintained by arc-controlled Z-axis height adjustment
  • Integrated sensor-controlled anti-collision protection to prevent damage to machine and workpiece
  • Magnetic coupling for faster torch setup and maintenance

Controls and software
  • PULSER 3 CNC unit with 15" touchscreen designed for modern cutting applications and ease of use
  • EtherCAT fieldbus for fast, reliable CNC performance
  • Depending on selected plasma source: ProNest LT Essentials or IBE cncCut Nest supplied

Standard equipment (examples)
  • PULSER 3 CNC unit
  • 15" HMI touchscreen
  • ProNest LT Essentials (depending on plasma source)
  • Table prepared for filtration system (mechanical closure control)
  • Automatic torch height control with THC sensor
  • Cutting torch with magnetic coupling and collision detector
  • INVT servomotors and drives
  • Laser pointer
  • User manual

Optional equipment (examples)
  • Extraction 2,500 m³/h (extraction/filtration system)
  • Powermax 125 plasma source
  • Powermax 105 Sync plasma source
  • ProNest LT software option (additional license)
  • Water table for plasma cutting installations (instead of vacuum table)
  • Engraving/marking system for PowerMax and MaxPro
