How much does the Koike Aronson PlateProXHD cost?

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Koike Aronson PlateProXHD 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 PlateProXHD is a floor-rail CNC plasma and oxy-fuel gantry in four widths, from the PLPXHD 2000 with 72 in (1,829 mm) of effective cutting width to the PLPXHD 3700 with 144 in (3,658 mm). It sits between the pedestal-rail Plate Pro and the MasterGraph machines: AC servo drive, 1,500 ipm (38.1 m/min) rapid traverse, plasma systems from 45 to 460 amp and a table capacity of 8 in (203 mm).

The base effective cutting length is 168 in (4,267 mm) and it is expandable; Koike quotes cutting lengths of 10 to 100 ft for the range. The rail is a 22kg, triple machined section on a floor-mounted H-beam support, and the maker states that the rails can be extended to carry two or more machines on a common rail. That makes a second gantry a later addition instead of a second installation.

Station count is where it differs most from the bigger gantries. The maximum is 3 slave stations, 2 plasma or marker stations and 4 oxy-fuel stations, with a Hi-Lo or Autogas oxy-fuel system. The MasterGraph EX2 carries up to 8 oxy-fuel stations. For plasma beveling Koike offers the 3D-X Full Contour Plasma Bevel Head as an option, and a pipe rotator for 2 to 16 in pipe is also listed.

The control is the Hypertherm Edge Connect with a 19-inch glass touchscreen and ProNest CNC automatic nesting. Maximum contour speed is 400 ipm (10.2 m/min). Machine voltage is given as 208-230/1 or 3-phase/60 AMP, so single-phase installation is possible for the machine itself; the plasma source is a separate supply.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

AC servo drive with 1,500 ipm (38.1 m/min) rapid traverse, the fastest of Koike's floor-rail gantries
Plasma systems from 45 to 460 amp and a table capacity of 8 in (203 mm)
Effective cutting length of 168 in (4,267 mm) is expandable, and rails can carry two or more machines
Optional 3D-X Full Contour Plasma Bevel Head
Machine voltage of 208-230/1 or 3-phase, so the gantry can run on single-phase power

Limitations

At most 4 oxy-fuel stations and 3 slave stations
Maximum contour speed is 400 ipm (10.2 m/min), against 600 ipm (15.2 m/min) on the MasterGraph EX2
Widest model is the PLPXHD 3700 with 144 in (3,658 mm) of effective cutting width
Contour bevel head, oxy-fuel stations and marking station are options

Best For

Service centers and fabricators cutting plate up to 12 ft wide High-definition plasma up to 460 amp with occasional oxy-fuel Contour-bevel weld preparation with the optional 3D-X head Shops that expect to lengthen the rail or add a second gantry

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What widths is the PlateProXHD built in?

Four. The PLPXHD 2000 has 72 in (1,829 mm) of effective cutting width, the PLPXHD 2500 96 in (2,438 mm), the PLPXHD 3100 120 in (3,048 mm) and the PLPXHD 3700 144 in (3,658 mm). Machine width runs from 160 in (4,064 mm) to 232 in (5,893 mm), and the machine rail gauge from 114 3/4 in (2,915 mm) to 186 3/4 in (4,743 mm).

02 How long can the PlateProXHD be?

The table lists an effective cutting length of 168 in (4,267 mm) and marks it as expandable. Koike's product page gives cutting lengths of 10 to 100 ft for this machine. The rail is floor-mounted and can be extended, including for two or more machines on a common rail.

03 How many torches does the PlateProXHD carry?

The maximums are 3 slave stations, 2 plasma or marker stations and 4 oxy-fuel stations. The oxy-fuel gas system is Hi-Lo or Autogas. Koike states that a steel band clamp sets the placement and spacing of up to 4 carriages.

04 Which control does the PlateProXHD use?

The Hypertherm Edge Connect. Koike's brochure describes a 19-inch glass touchscreen and ProNest CNC automatic nesting. Drives are AC servo, with Yaskawa servo motors named in the brochure, and rapid traverse is 1,500 ipm (38.1 m/min).

05 Does the PlateProXHD cut bevels and pipe?

Both are options. The 3D-X Full Contour Plasma Bevel Head is offered for contour bevels. A pipe rotator supports rotation and beveling of 2 to 16 in pipe with a 4-jaw chuck, on track sections that expand in 10 ft steps up to 40 ft.
