erlcut gantry cutting systems |
|
| Gantry |
Pipe construction with support profiles for cables and tubes |
Sandwich method of construction with internal tubes and cables ensures high stability and system availability |
| Drive |
DC motors with simple transmissions and milled gearwheels Motors with incremental value encoders |
AC servo motors with planetary transmissions with milled gear wheels guarantee high-quality cutting results even under high drive power Motors with absolute value encoders save a reference run |
| Z-Axis | Z-axis with single guide and low lifting speed |
Z-axis with recirculating ball spindle incl. double linear guide and a stroke speed of 15 m / min. Memory function for oxfuel and plasma |
| Control |
Small display with touchpad General user interface No access from the outside |
Large color display with glass surface for fatigue- and trouble-free operation User menu is customized Absolute remote maintainability |
| Process | Cutting data incomplete |
Special cutting data available for customers, e.g. material thicknesses in mm steps or special steels Permanent further development of cutting data |
| Table | Mechanical or inductive approach |
Flap control via bus-system ensures vibration- and interference-free control of the table |
| Filter | 100 % table cover required for reliable extraction, small filter surface |
Extraction volume incl. filter surface correctly dimensioned - 0 % table cover necessary. Example: Plasma process, cutting width 2 m, 5,400 m3/h & filter surface 189 m2 |
| Software | Programming software is mandatory |
Converter for any common programming software available |
| Service | Cost-intensive with long waiting period |
Reliable, also available for other makes; free telephone support |
| Production | International |
Germany - high quality of the machines and immediate availability of all spare parts |
