How much does the Lincoln Electric Tomahawk 625 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc plasma cutting in this class — not a quote from Lincoln Electric. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Lincoln Electric Tomahawk 625 is listed here as a small CNC plasma table built around the Tomahawk 625 plasma power source, in either a 4 ft × 4 ft or a 4 ft × 8 ft configuration. Lincoln Electric's current lineup does not show this package, so the listed figures need confirming against whatever machine is actually on offer, starting with which of the two bed sizes it is.
Size drives most of the other numbers. Weight is given as approx. 450 – 750 kg depending on table size, and the smaller bed handles half sheets only, which means full sheets must be sheared or cut down before loading. Mild steel capacity is listed at 19 mm for production cutting and 25 mm at severance.
Motion is modest: positioning at up to 4,000 mm/min (157 in/min) and cutting at up to 3,500 mm/min, the latter depending on material and thickness. On thin sheet the gantry, not the arc, may be what caps the feed rate, so the package suits heavier gauge and plate better than high-volume thin sheet.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Two listed bed sizes, 4 ft × 4 ft and 4 ft × 8 ft
- Mild steel capacity listed at 19 mm production and 25 mm severance
- Weight of approx. 450 – 750 kg, depending on table size, keeps placement simple
Limitations
- Cutting speed tops out at 3,500 mm/min and positioning at 4,000 mm/min (157 in/min)
- The 4 ft × 4 ft configuration cannot take a full 4 ft × 8 ft sheet
- Only mild steel thickness is listed, with nothing for stainless steel or aluminium

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Two are listed: 4 ft × 4 ft and 4 ft × 8 ft. Cutting area matches the table configuration, and weight varies with it, from approx. 450 kg to 750 kg. With a used machine, establish which size it is before anything else, since the smaller one cannot load a full sheet.
02
Mild steel is listed at 19 mm for production cutting and 25 mm at severance. Production is the thickness for everyday work with an acceptable edge. No capacity is listed for stainless steel or aluminium, so those need the cut charts of the power source.
03
Positioning speed is listed at up to 4,000 mm/min (157 in/min) and cutting speed at up to 3,500 mm/min, depending on material and thickness. The gap between the two is small, so moves between parts take almost as long per metre as the cuts themselves.
