How much does the ESAB Vision T5 CNC Plasma Cutting System cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc plasma cutting in this class — not a quote from ESAB. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The ESAB Vision T5 CNC Plasma Cutting System is listed as a large-format plasma cutting table: up to 6,000 mm wide, up to 30,000 mm long, with a rack-and-pinion servo drive and positioning at up to 25 m/min. ESAB's current lineup does not include a machine under this name, so the listed figures are best read as a guide to confirm against the nameplate and documentation of the machine actually on offer.
Both table dimensions are upper limits, not one fixed size. A particular machine may be much smaller than 6,000 mm by 30,000 mm, and the bed has to be measured. At the top of the range the length is five times the width, a format that suits long plate, or several plates laid in a row so that one can be unloaded while another is being cut.
Cut capacity is given as 50 mm carbon steel by plasma and 80 mm with oxygen. The plasma source row names units of up to 400A and the gas system is dual-gas (O2 + N2/Air). The table does not say which amperage belongs to the 50 mm figure, or whether it is a pierce or an edge-start limit, so anyone working near that thickness should ask for cut samples in their own material.
Automatic height control is listed as standard, the control as ESAB Columbus CNC and the supply as three-phase. Nothing in the table covers machine weight, accuracy or cutting speed, all of which matter for foundation and installation planning.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Table listed at up to 6,000 mm wide and up to 30,000 mm long, room for long plate or several plates in a row
- Carbon steel capacity listed at 50 mm by plasma, with 80 mm given for cutting with oxygen
- Automatic height control (AHC) is listed as standard, not as an option
- Positioning speed of up to 25 m/min on a rack-and-pinion servo drive
- Dual-gas system (O2 + N2/Air) paired with plasma sources of up to 400A
Limitations
- Table size is given only as upper limits (up to 6,000 mm by up to 30,000 mm), so the bed of a given machine has to be measured
- The 50 mm plasma figure for carbon steel is stated without the amperage or the type of cut it applies to
- The listed figures include no cutting speed, accuracy or machine weight; these have to be established on the machine itself
- Needs a three-phase supply, and the table gives no voltage or current figure for sizing it

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The listed figures give a table width of up to 6,000 mm and a table length of up to 30,000 mm. Both are maximums for the range, not the size of every machine, so measure the bed of the specific machine before planning plate sizes or shop layout around it.
02
The table lists 50 mm carbon steel with plasma and 80 mm with oxygen. It does not state the amperage behind the 50 mm figure or whether it describes a pierce or an edge start. The plasma source row goes up to 400A, so check which source is fitted to the machine in question.
03
The gas system is listed as dual-gas (O2 + N2/Air). The cut thickness row also gives 80 mm with oxygen against 50 mm carbon steel by plasma, so an oxygen supply sized for the thicker work is something to plan for alongside the plasma gases.
04
Yes. AHC, automatic height control, is listed as standard. The drive is a rack-and-pinion servo system with positioning at up to 25 m/min, and the control is listed as ESAB Columbus CNC.
05
The actual table size, since the listed 6,000 mm width and 30,000 mm length are upper limits. Also the amperage of the fitted plasma source (the row covers units up to 400A), the three-phase supply it needs, and the machine weight and accuracy, which the listed figures do not give.
