Controller Features Scrap Cutting Option
April 1, 2016
The iCNC Performance control from Thermal Dynamics Automation enables users to build full-featured plasma systems.
Thermal Dynamics Automation offers its next-generation iCNC Performance control and Ultra-Cut XT high precision plasma power sources with the new ScrapCutter option.
The iCNC Performance control is designed to enable users to build full-featured plasma systems that deliver professional performance. The thin panel mount unit (16.1" x 19.4" x 2.9") features a 15" touchscreen, controls for plasma, oxy-fuel and auxiliary functions, built-in Wi-Fi, programmable I/O (16 In, 20 Out), 3-axis drive outputs and three encoder inputs. Optional built-in torch height control (iHC) and servo motors with built-in amplifiers are available. With the iCNC Performance, all process databases are built in to the system.
"The iCNC Performance is designed to improve operation cost, optimize cut quality and virtually eliminate operator errors," said Dirk Ott, Vice President - Global Plasma Automation, Thermal Dynamics.
ScrapCutter Option
All of the Ultra-Cut XT units, available in 100 to 400 amp outputs for automated plasma cutting, now come with a ScrapCutter option. This provides the ability to connect a manual 1Torch directly to the front of the unit for plasma cutting of plate skeletons to simplify scrap removal. The ScrapCutter option provides a constant 100-amp output, and torch lengths of up to 100' are possible. A fold back circuit automatically reduces the output to 45 amps if the tip accidentally touches the plate, which improves parts life.
