Description: 2013 Dynatorch XLR8 with a Hypertherm Powermax 105. It will accommodate 5 X 10 plate steel and will cut up to 1” thick. It also has an attachment to cut pipe as well. A nice feature when you want to cut designs out of round material. I paid $50K for it
Basic Description The Dyna-scribe system uses a carbide tipped pneumatic scriber from Chicago Pneumatics to engrave lines or marks into metal. The scribe is enclosed in a housing that is attached to an air slide assembly. Two electrical solenoids are used to control the scribe. One solenoid lowers and raises the whole assembly to a marking position. This allows the unit to retract when not in use and not interfere or be damaged by the plasma cutting process. Travel distance is about 6 inches from raised to lowered position. The second solenoid drops the marker to the material and turns on the air to the scribe itself. Each time the scribe turns off at the end of a mark, the scribe is retracted back away from the metal. The travel distance for the scribe is about 1-1/2 inches. The scribe is mounted to a linear bearing and is allowed to “float” on it’s own weight when marking. This maintains consistent marking depth and quality. A rotating knurled collar on the scribe also allows adjustment of the striking intensity of the scribe. All raise/lower and marking air functions are controlled by M codes in the part program. The system also has an offset G code that tells the system the exactposition relationship of the marker and the cutting head. This allows the system to go from marking directly to cutting without any stopping or operator intervention. You may mark the whole sheet and then cut all parts or you may mark a part then cut it and then repeat that process for the entire sheet. Each has advantages or disadvantages depending on the sheet thickness (warpage) and/or the part shape as small parts may tip up and be contacted by the marking system which does not have collision detection at this time.
