Heavy Metal Cutting Machine

Introduction

A Heavy Metal Cutting Machine is a precision-engineered equipment designed to cut, shape, or modify large and dense metal components with high accuracy. These machines are crucial in fabrication industries, construction, shipbuilding, defense, and aerospace where strength, reliability, and precision are non-negotiable. Depending on the technology used—plasma, laser, waterjet, or oxy-fuel—these machines can handle stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, titanium, and more.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. What types of metals can your heavy cutting machine handle?

Our machines are designed to cut a wide range of metals, including mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, copper, and alloys. Depending on the model, thicknesses from 1mm to over 150mm can be handled.

2. Is training provided with the machine?

Yes, we offer complete operator training, both online and on-site, depending on client preference. Training includes machine operation, maintenance, and software handling.

3. What is the difference between laser, plasma, and waterjet cutting?

Laser: High precision, ideal for thinner metals.
Plasma: Cost-effective and fast for mid-to-thick materials.
Waterjet: Cuts without heat, suitable for delicate or heat-sensitive materials.

4. Can I integrate this machine with CAD/CAM software?

Absolutely. Our machines are compatible with all major CAD/CAM platforms and come with built-in software that allows seamless design-to-cut workflows.

5. How much space do I need to install the machine?

It varies by model. A standard heavy-duty machine may require 15x10 ft of floor space. We provide full installation layout support before delivery.

6. What’s the power consumption of the machine?

Power consumption depends on the machine type and capacity. On average, it ranges from 5kW to 20kW. We provide full load and idle consumption specs upfront.

7. How often does the machine require maintenance?

Routine maintenance is minimal. We suggest basic daily checks and monthly servicing. We also offer AMC plans to ensure uninterrupted operations.

8. What is the cutting accuracy and repeatability?

Our machines offer cutting accuracies of up to ±0.01 mm and high repeatability, which is crucial for mass production and precision work.

9. Do you offer custom-built machines?

Yes, we offer customizable configurations based on your metal type, thickness, production volume, and budget. We tailor machines to your exact requirements.

10. How long is the delivery and installation time?

Delivery typically takes 4–6 weeks depending on customization. Installation and commissioning take 2–5 days. Faster turnaround is available for urgent needs.
