How to Purchse CNC Cutting Machines


This article was reprinted from Yeah!Legend Blog:
At present, CNC flame and plasma cutting machines begin to be widespread among manufacturing enterprises in China. In order to improve production efficiency, expand production scale, many companies began to purchase and use CNC cutting machines. Due to lack of concepts and knowledge of CNC cutting, these companies would suffer technical problems and using difficulties when purchasing and using CNC cutting machines. Here is an article, introducing ways of purchasing or selling CNC cutting machines.
Simply, CNC cutting machine contains three parts:
一、Machine Tool
二、CNC System
三、Optimized Nest Software
1. Machine tool is the main body of CNC cutting machine, including crossbeam and guide rail, rack/gear wheel drive system, reducer, servo motor system, air circuit system, lift system, electric control cabinet, along with THC system, automatic ignition system, scoring system, cooling system, etc. Quality and processing precision of machine tool, purchase of key component (reducer, servo drive, THC, etc.) are important parts that will influence functional allocation, lifespan of machine tool, cutting quality and precision.
2. CNC system plays an important role as chief commander of CNC cutting machine. It mainly contains an industrial controller and a set of software specialized for CNC cutting and cutting controller software. The hardware configuration of industrial controller in CNC system determines the steady of CNC cutting machine and CNC system. Cutting control software in CNC system offers all kinds of cutting skill and motion control mode, determining the cutting efficiency and cutting quality of CNC cutting machines.
3. Optimized nest software is the necessary tool for efficient use of CNC cutting machine. Its key functions are as follows, 1. centralized nest of components and steels, especially the whole plate optimized nest and rest plate optimized nest, effectively improving the use ratio of steel plate nest. 2. Nesting programming and cutting efficiency. Through automatic and manual interactive fast nesting, automatic programming and efficient cutting technologies, working efficiency of nesting programming and cutting efficiency have been improved greatly.
Three main features of a CNC cutting machine:
1. Be able to cut certain plate with specific material and thickness, serving for specific products;
2. Be able to improve cutting efficiency and cutting quality;
3. Be able to save steel plate and consumables effectively.
How to choose specific type and equipment of CNC cutting machine? According to cutting materials and thickness, requirement for cutting efficiency and cutting quality, company could firstly select the type of CNC cutting machines, such as flame, plasma, laser or CNC groove cutting machine. Secondly, company should get to know the efficient pierce capacity and pierce technology in order to ensure the specific equipment of CNC cutting machines, such as types of plasma power, flame torch and preheat cutting oxygen equipment or CNC groove cutting method. Therefore, the equipment of CNC cutting machine and price can be settled.

SteelTailor Tells You How to Purchase Plasma Power and Plasma Cutting Machines


This is reprinted from Yeah!Legend Blog:

Plasma power is an important equipment of plasma CNC cutting machine. Besides of greatly improving cutting efficiency and quality, plasma power could save the purchasing cost of CNC cutting machine. We’d like to list several notes about how to choose plasma power:
First of all, we need to know the requirements. Plasma cutting power includes machine-used plasma power and hand-held plasma power. Generally speaking, CNC cutting machines need machine-used plasma power. Speaking to arcing, plasma power has two ways, touching arcing and non-touching arcing (button). At present, CNC cutting machines prefer non-touching arcing. If there is a button on hand-held torch, it means this non-touching arcing will be used. The electric current of plasma power with non-touching arcing is generally above 100A. The electric current of machine-used plasma power is also larger than 100A. It is an important feature for power supply of 100A electric current that it will cause great radiation and probably cause damage to operators.
Second, plate thickness is required to be considered when choosing electric current of plasma power. Plasma power with different Watt share will share different price.From the consideration of cost, higher the Watt is, more power consumption and higher price.
Thirdly, we choose type and manufacturer of plasma power according to the requirement of quality of cutting section. Plasma cutting would cause the cutting notch large upside and small downside because of features of plasma arc. Cutting section is always tilted and could be as vertical as flame cutting. The slant angle for common plasma is about 13 to 15 degrees. Plasma power could be classified as common plasma, fine plasma and Laser-like plasma in terms of vertical degree and cutting precision. The cutting quality is, of course, related to the price. 
Fourth, plasma power contains inverter type and SCR. The former one is lighter.
Fifth, plasma power could be equipped to hand-held cutting, as well as one part of CNC cutting machine package. To realize the clamping on CNC cutting machine, CNC straight handle torch shoule be considered in procurement.
Sixth, the length of plasma cable should be related to the distance between torch and plasma power in full width during cutting process. If the cable is too long, the arc punching and cutting capability of this machine would be reduced.
Seventh, plasma power contains domestic plasma power and imported plasma power. The model and cutting condition of plate decide the specific choice of plasma power. In order to achieve good cutting effect, the quality of cutting machine and the skilled operation bear important responsibility.

How to Maintain CNC Plasma Cutting Torch

This article is reprinted from YeahLegend blog:
http://yeahlegend.com/blog/?p=102



Plasma cutting torch is the largest consumption among the consumables from the perspective of plasma cutting method. How yo extend the lifespan of plasma cutting torch during plasma cutting process? Several tips are as follows:
1. To assemble cutting torch correctly
We should assemble cutting torch carefully and correctly to make sure all the components are matched well, gas and cooling air are circulating smoothly. All the components should be placed in clean lint before assembly for avoiding dirt. Proper lubricating oil should be added into O-Ring till O-Ring becomes bright.
2. To change the consumables before complete breakdown
The worn electrode, nozzle and swirl ring will cause plasma arc and brought destructive damage to cutting torch. Therefore, consumables should be checked in time once we found the cutting quality is not as good as before.
3. To clean the connecting thread of cutting torch
When changing consumables or making daily maintenance, cutting torch and external thread should be clean. If necessary, the connecting thread should be washed or repaired.
4. To clean the surface of electrode and nozzle
Generally speaking, the surface of nozzle and electrode is electric. If dirt was in the surface, cutting torch could not work as usual. Oxidation of hydrogen cleaner should be used to clean away the dirt.
5. To check the gas and cooling air everyday
Gas, flow and pressure of cooling air should be checked everyday. If the flow is not sufficient or gas is leaked out, machine should be shut down and solve the problems first.
6. To avoid crash and damage to cutting torch
In order to avoid crash and damage to cutting torch, programming should be made correctly and avoid the system walk out of the limitation. AVTHC (Arc Voltage Torch Height Control) or anti-collision device should be installed for avoiding crash or any damage to cutting torch.
CNC plasma cutting machine is relatively more expensive than CNC flame cutting machine. But in the long term, flame cutting machine will consume more. What we should do is to protect the cutting components and cutting torch correctly. Therefore, plasma cutting is more economical and practical than flame cutting.
