The Farley Laserlab Truedge Plasma & Drilling is a large footprint multi-torch cutting machine designed to deliver precision, X-Definition plasma & Bevel cutting, oxy-fuel cutting and drilling.
The Truedge Plasma & Drilling Machine is ideally suited to high volume cutting environments such as shipyards, steel services & distribution centres and
shops that require continuous operation – 3 shifts per day, year after year.
The Truedge is one of the latest from the Farley stable and achieves its accuracy and high productivity by utilising single piece fabricated beam construction, which eliminates bolted joints. Combined with twin side-drives through high precision planetary gear boxes, the result is a machine light enough to achieve plasma profiling speeds of 20m/min yet retaining the rigidity to accept up to 6 torches for multi-torch plate cutting of 250mm thick material.
The Truedge also has a drilling head with 16 x BT40 tools, with
the capacity to drill 40mm diameter holes, also the 30 x BT50 Tools with capacity up to 100mm
Low rails for rigidity & higher productivity
> The low level rail construction improves accuracy and stability while reducing the chances of damage from swinging loads on cranes and forklifts.
> Low rails improve operator access, speeding up loading and unloading and reducing potential safety problems.
Combination drives for greater accuracy
> AC servo drives and planetary gearboxes provide the torque and resolution necessary to ensure accurate position through the life of the machine.
> The drive system ensures high stiffness essential for accuracy, minimal backlash and easy adjustment.
> Optimum acceleration is ensured through the use of Bosch AC motors.
> Twin drive system ensures torch accuracy.
New BT40 Drill Head
> BT40 tool holder, accommodating 16 tools - Drill Up to 40mm
> BT50 tool holder, accommodating 30 tools - Drill Up to 100mm
Torch carriage versatility
> The rack & pinion primary torch carriage can be fitted with up to three lifters, to accommodate the plasma torch, oxy-fuel torch, marker and centre drill.
> Up to three additional slave torch carriages can be fitted. These are driven by the primary torch carriage by a stainless steel band and can be configured for various tools.
