How much does the ESAB Plasmarc Precision CNC Plasma System cost?

Estimated price range

Est.$65,000 – $160,000

Our best estimate for a cnc plasma cutting in this class — not a quote from ESAB. Configuration moves it a long way.

ESAB Plasmarc Precision CNC Plasma System — price

Est.$65,000 – $160,000

This is our best estimate for a machine of this type and class, built from published prices of comparable cnc plasma cutting and typical dealer pricing. ESAB has not published a list price for the ESAB Plasmarc Precision CNC Plasma System that we can cite. Treat it as a planning number, not a quote.

What moves the final price

  • Spindle, control and probing options
  • Tool changer capacity and tooling package
  • Automation — pallet changers, bar feeders, robot cells
  • Freight, rigging, installation and training
  • Region, dealer and time of year

Overview

The ESAB Plasmarc Precision CNC Plasma System is a table-and-gantry plasma machine with a 200–400A precision HD power source and cutting areas from 5 x 10 ft to 8 x 20 ft, depending on configuration. It is not in ESAB's current lineup and may be an older model. The table comes from a third-party listing, so the listed figures are unconfirmed.

On carbon steel the quality-cut limit is up to 1.5 in (38 mm), with severance to 2.5 in (64 mm). Positioning speed is up to 600 ipm (15,240 mm/min) and cutting speed runs from 20–500 ipm depending on material and thickness. The top of the cutting range is close to the positioning speed, so on thin sheet the machine spends little time waiting on rapids.

Standard beds are 5x10 ft and 6x12 ft, with larger configurations available, and the machine weighs approx. 4,000–7,000 lb (1,815–3,175 kg) depending on bed size. Add the heaviest plate you intend to load when checking the floor. Control is the ESAB Vision T5 CNC with precision plasma process tables, and the supply is three-phase.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

  • Precision HD power source of 200–400A with proprietary gas control
  • Quality cuts up to 1.5 in (38 mm) on carbon steel, severance to 2.5 in (64 mm)
  • Positioning speed up to 600 ipm (15,240 mm/min)
  • Cutting areas from 5 x 10 ft to 8 x 20 ft

Limitations

  • Quality cutting stops at 1.5 in (38 mm); thicker carbon steel up to 2.5 in (64 mm) is severance only
  • Capacity is stated for carbon steel only, with no stainless or aluminum figure
  • No positioning accuracy or kerf figure is listed, and the table is from a third-party listing

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What bed sizes are listed for the Plasmarc Precision CNC Plasma System?

Standard table sizes are 5x10 ft and 6x12 ft, with larger configurations available. The cutting area row gives a range of 5 x 10 ft to 8 x 20 ft depending on configuration. Machine weight is approx. 4,000–7,000 lb (1,815–3,175 kg) depending on bed size.

02 How thick can it cut?

On carbon steel, up to 1.5 in (38 mm) for a quality cut and 2.5 in (64 mm) for severance, from a 200–400A power source. No thickness is listed for stainless or aluminum, so ask for cut charts for those metals.

03 How fast does it move?

Positioning speed is up to 600 ipm (15,240 mm/min). Cutting speed is 20–500 ipm depending on material and thickness, the low end applying to thick plate and the high end to thin sheet.
