There are alot of other CNC plasma systems out there. There are those running in the 80IPM-1800IPM range. Pricing ranges from $7K-170K+ for larger machines. We have done alot of homework and comparisons between mfgs and options. Some mfgs will sell you a kit for 4x4 $7000+ with a bolt together aluminum table and then charge additional thousands for torch height control and much more for proprietary electronics. Some will sell you a complete package with a flimsy table and poor resolution for just under $10,000.00. Yet others want over $10K for a single drive, poor resolution table with controls and motors you can only buy from them.

We have seen many of these tables over last 20 years of business and some are better than others. Our quest was to offer the best value table without sacrificing the most important aspects of plasma cutting... Torch height control, resolution and movement. Bulltear industries coming from the motion and automation industry we originally we keep a sharp eye on changes in industry. This year the rules have changed and industry automation has finally become affordable. We can accurately move a gantry with high speed and high acceleration for alot less than we could years ago. This evolution in rails, software and digital torch height integration makes it possible to save thousands and thousands on a smooth running CNC plasma table. Our tables use the latest in software and hardware and allow a great value in CNC cutting never before seen. We build CNC tables accurately with our squadron of CNC machining centers and turning centers in house and use plasma cutting equipment from our own design.

Before you buy a CNC plasma do yourself a favor and do a apples to apples comparison and ask these important questions.

1. Does your system include DTHC and what extra does it cost
2. What is the resolution of your system (minimum travel)
3. What travel speed do you offer (rapid and feed)
4. Are your electronics, motor, driver, software proprietary?
