CNC Plasma build 1.2x1.2

dimanche 7 juin 2015

Ok guys thought I would chuck this up just to give you an idea on how I am doing things with this build.

Table to have a 1.2x1.2 Cut area di did look at longer but I don't really see the use with it, if I need to make it longer I ma builing this in a way that un upgrade could take place with some new rails etc.

So frist off I have been quoted turn key plasma system a well known barnd and would get no change out of 25k if it came in at 15k then I would have paid it but really that type of investment 25k on a startup just wont cut the mustard.

Table will be a heavy built table Tully mostly is completed from something I was building two years ago.

I am going to use turn key systems in it.

Hyper therm Plasma Cutter 45, purchased eta 1 week.
Snapcut Torch Holder purchased this week
Z axis from my first build from mothballed stock

Y Axis to be made from 8020 should have quote tomorrow
1 x 25 Linear guide from mothballed stock (needs a clean up)
Drive will be ball screw from from mothballed stock

X Linear Rails 20mm Need to purchase
Drive R&P Need to purchase

Y Axis to be made from 8020 should have quote tomorrow
1 x 25 Linear guide from mothballed stock

Water tub will get that quoted when I am up and running may make one myself see how I go.

At the moment I slapped together a test unit on some Chinese steppers I had sitting around all working quite well but needs to be better more or less a test bed for some of the parts I had.

I am looking at a complete plug and play system from candcnc, or a G540 plus there DTHC there are other THC's around like the Proma that cost 1/4 of the THC unit alone but the candcnc gear looks the goods from the reading I have done so far I am guessing because I will go over the 1k mark I will have to pay related taxes as well on the import so whilst the complete system would be excellent i may just go there DHTC unit coupled with a G540 or a G200 series may have to have a chat to Homann and see what he thinks, really up in the air on this.

Mach 3 for the CAM

This is the test unit, my son loves it lol.
