How much does the Koike Aronson Plate-Fab cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Koike Aronson Plate-Fab that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
The Koike Aronson Plate-Fab is a unitized CNC plasma and oxy-fuel machine built around high-current plasma on a small table. Four models are listed, the Plate-Fab 510, 512, 610 and 612, with effective cutting widths of 60 in (1,524 mm) or 72 in (1,829 mm) and effective cutting lengths of 120 in (3,048 mm) or 144 in (3,658 mm). Plasma systems are 200-400 amp and the maximum plate capacity is 2 in (51 mm).
Its place in the range is defined by that plasma class. The ShopPro tables of similar size start at 45 amp; the Plate-Fab starts at 200 amp and comes with a choice of two controls, the Hypertherm EDGE Connect or the FlashCut Titanium. Koike's table gives the drive system and the machine voltage as dependent on the control chosen, so both have to be settled with the order.
The machine is simple in its tool layout. One plasma or marker station and one oxy-fuel station are the maximum, and oxy-fuel and a scribe are options. Rapid traverse is listed as 4 to 1,000 ipm (0.1 to 25.4 m/min) and the maximum contour speed is 400 ipm (10.2 m/min).
Machine width is 85 1/8 in (2,162 mm) for the two narrower models and 97 1/8 in (2,467 mm) for the two wider ones, with a machine length of 156 in (3,962 mm) or 180 in (4,572 mm). Water and downdraft tables are both offered. The product page also mentions 20 ft cutting lengths, which the brochure's model table does not show, so ask the maker which lengths are current.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 200-400 amp plasma systems on a table with 60 in (1,524 mm) or 72 in (1,829 mm) of cutting width
- Choice of Hypertherm EDGE Connect or FlashCut Titanium control
- Compact: machine width from 85 1/8 in (2,162 mm) and machine length from 156 in (3,962 mm)
- Water or downdraft table options
Limitations
- Maximum plate capacity is 2 in (51 mm)
- One plasma or marker station and one oxy-fuel station at most
- Drive system and machine voltage are not stated in the table; both depend on the control
- The model table stops at 144 in (3,658 mm) of effective cutting length

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The brochure table lists four models. The Plate-Fab 510 and 512 have 60 in (1,524 mm) of effective cutting width, the 610 and 612 have 72 in (1,829 mm). Effective cutting length is 120 in (3,048 mm) on the 510 and 610 and 144 in (3,658 mm) on the 512 and 612.
02
Koike lists 200-400 amp plasma systems for it, with a maximum plate capacity of 2 in (51 mm). Oxy-fuel is an option, limited to one station. The table shows a maximum of one plasma or marker station.
03
Either the Hypertherm EDGE Connect or the FlashCut Titanium. The specification table answers both drive system and machine voltage with a reference to the control, so the motors, drives and electrical supply follow from that choice.
04
Rapid traverse is listed as 4 to 1,000 ipm (0.1 to 25.4 m/min), and the maximum contour speed is 400 ipm (10.2 m/min). No accuracy or repeatability figure is given in the model table.
