Heavy-Duty Rotary Plasma Bevel System

ESAB plasma cutting systems are the industry standard for above and underwater cutting of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Integration of ESAB’s m3 Plasma, Vision CNC, and bevel systems provides unmatched control of bevel cutting. Cutting parameters such as speed, kerf, and tilt angles are automatically adjusted for various material thicknesses and bevel angles, greatly simplifying part programming and ensuring high quality cutting results.

Using ESAB’s Heavy-Duty Rotary Plasma Bevel System, both straight and bevel cuts can be made on the same part. The bevel system can be programmed to change bevel angle on the fly, and rotation is automatically controlled so that the head is always perpendicular to the direction of travel.

Highlights

• Variable bevel control
• Bevel on the fly, interpolation of the bevel angle while cutting 
• Perform combination bevel cutting
• Multi-pass capability for "Y" and "X" beveling
• Available with m3 Plasma systems up to 600 Amps, making it ideal for all heavy-duty mild-steel, stainless steel, or aluminum beveling applications
• Automatically switch between arc voltage or tactile sensor torch height control
• Fully integrated process parameters automatically control feedrate, kerf, torch height, gas flows, and other parameters, eliminating operator or programmer intervention 
• Torch height is tightly controlled regardless of torch cutting speed or thickness
• Non-contact initial height sensing system maintains torch alignment, reduces cycle times
• Magnetic breakaway provides crash protection even at high speeds
• Heavy-duty stainless steel construction
