6000 Series CNC Bridge & Rail System - Plasma/Oxy-Fuel

Designed for manufacturers who need to cut heavy plate or need a large processing area without sacrificing accuracy or cut quality. The 6000 Series motion platform is independent of the cutting surface helping to insure that the motion platform will not be damaged from material loading or from the high heat of oxyfuel cutting. Available widths are 8’ to 20’, with lengths starting at 12’. Add additional 5’ and 10’ sections to make the 6000 system the perfect complement to your production facility. With a rapid traverse speed of 1000 ipm, the rigid, heavy, all-steel construction combined with precision guide ways makes this system one of the most accurate heavy cutting systems on the market today.

Integrated Material Database

When you change material type, material thickness, or arc current many parameters such as feedrate, pierce delay, pierce height, etc. all need to be adjusted. MultiCam has made this process simple by integrating all of these cutting values into a simple to use menu driven database on our hand held controller. The user simply selects material type, thickness, and arc current and all of the settings are adjusted automatically.
