PlasmaCAM demo 021109

Check us at www.BrilliantDesignOnline.com
This project is cutting out cylinder head baffles for an aircraft IO-540 from 2024-T3 0.040" aluminum. The plasma cutter is a Miller 375 Xtreme and the cnc table is a PlasmaCAM DHC2(2007). This gives you a bit of a view of my shop which is in my house which is a converted one-car garage and is cramped. I wanted to give a demo of how nice PlasmaCAM makes parts. It will cut this nice out of any conductive material, not quite this fast though. Kalispell, Montana. Contact me to cut your parts.
(Be sure and watch in 'High Quality')

What's wrong with this man, use gloves man, be more professional you were getting burn, do you believe in safety? Safety first then you can keep doing your job.

@vzuani65 I do believe in safety. Aluminum dissipates heat very quickly, especially when it is this thin. I have been doing this for years now. I think I know when I need gloves. Thanks for your concern. Be sure and wear a helmet.

I rarely get burned. Last time was because I had holes in my gloves :-)

:D use some gloves man, I got burned so often on this machine .... also, I would love to find away to clamp the sheet down, because something like aluminum get dragged , kicked so easily.  Nice shop!

@schluchtification Unfortunately, I do not know which kind of servo motors are used, but they ARE servos and not steppers.

[Ochibason]

How much does it cost? Great video metal worker here.

[schluchtification]

Nice Video, very well done!

I am thinking about building my own cnc table for my Miller 375 Xtreme plasma cutter. However, i am not quite sure which dc servo motor i should use. Maybe you know what type type of dc servo motor (specs would be nice) they use to move the plasma cutter over the table?

Thanks in advance & greetings from Austria
