SOITAAB PLASMAtech Plasma NOVA
Heavy-duty industrial automatic plasma cutting complex for performing the most resource-intensive sheet metal cutting tasks.
- Exceptional structural rigidity and positioning accuracy High cutting precision is achieved through a rigid welded gantry, high-precision guides, and dual brushless drives with longitudinal gantry control (gantry system). A key design feature is the completely independent cutting table, which is separated from the machine's guide rails. This eliminates the transfer of vibrations, mechanical loads, and thermal deformations from heated metal to the coordinate system.
- Intuitive control via the S.H.M.I. interface Proprietary software S.H.M.I. (Soitaab Human Machine Interface) with a 15-inch touchscreen is designed specifically to simplify operation as much as possible. The intuitive interface allows even an operator with minimal experience to quickly and accurately master the machine and utilize its full technological potential from the very first days of operation.
- Flexible technology integration and modularity The equipment offers unmatched customization options tailored to business tasks. For example, the top model in the line (Plasma NOVA) is the only solution on the market that combines plasma cutting, an oxy-fuel torch, drilling and tapping heads, beveling systems (bevel head), and up to 5 different types of part marking on a single gantry.
- Highest standards of safety and environmental friendliness Operator safety is ensured by a comprehensive protection system: from laser safety scanners and physical bumpers to special silicone curtains that absorb harmful ultraviolet radiation from the plasma. Clean air in the shop is maintained by a built-in zonal fume extraction system. Special dampers for the exhaust channels open automatically directly beneath the cutting area, efficiently removing gases and dust.
