How much does the Lincoln Electric Torchmate 4400 CNC Plasma Table 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 Torchmate 4400 is a 4x4 CNC plasma table with a water bed, a 500 ipm (12700 mm/min) rapid rate and a material capacity of 1 in (25.4 mm) mild steel. The whole machine measures 74 x 67 x 63 in (1879.60 mm x 1701.80 mm x 1600.20 mm) and weighs 1322 lbs (599.65 kg), so it fits a corner of a fabrication shop and can be placed with an ordinary forklift.
Lincoln Electric's catalog is specific about how the table is built. The frame is 3/16 in (4.7625 mm) mild steel and the gantry carriage is milled 3/8 in (9.525 mm) aluminum. The axes ride on 20mm profile linear rail, the drive uses three 3:1 belt reductions, and the gears are held in mesh by spring loading, which takes up wear without manual adjustment. Machine repeatability is given as 0.0015 in (0.0381 mm). That is far tighter than a plasma kerf can exploit, so cut quality on this table will be set by the torch, the consumables and the cut chart settings long before the mechanics.
Gantry clearance is 5 in (127 mm). Flat plate is no issue, but formed parts, tube and anything clamped in a tall fixture must pass under that height. The water table holds 60 gallons (230 liters), and that water adds to the 1322 lbs (599.65 kg) machine weight once the bed is filled, so position the table first.
Three services are needed. The HMI and motion control want a 115V / 15A dedicated circuit. Input power is listed separately, as 200-208V or 230V single-phase, or 200-208V, 230V, 380V, 460V or 575V three-phase. Compressed air is specified at 87-109 psi (6-7.5 bar) with a flow of 380 SCFH (180 SLPM), which is worth checking against the shop compressor along with air drying.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Machine repeatability of 0.0015 in (0.0381 mm) on 20mm profile linear rail
- Compact at 74 x 67 x 63 in (1879.60 mm x 1701.80 mm x 1600.20 mm) and 1322 lbs (599.65 kg)
- Frame of 3/16 in (4.7625 mm) mild steel with a milled 3/8 in (9.525 mm) aluminum gantry carriage
- Spring loaded gear engagement and three 3:1 belt reductions in the drive
- Built-in water table with a 60 gallon (230 liter) capacity
- Accepts single-phase input at 200-208V or 230V as well as three-phase from 200-208V to 575V
Limitations
- The 4x4 cutting area will not take a full-size sheet without cutting it down first
- Gantry clearance of 5 in (127 mm) limits tube, formed parts and tall fixtures
- Piercing 1 in (25.4 mm) mild steel needs the FlexCut 125; the FlexCut 80 pierces 0.75 in (19 mm)
- Rapid traverse of 500 ipm (12700 mm/min) is a third of the 1,500 ipm of the Torchmate 5100

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The table measures 74 x 67 x 63 in (1879.60 mm x 1701.80 mm x 1600.20 mm) and weighs 1322 lbs (599.65 kg). Allow extra room around it for loading plate, for the plasma power source and for the operator. The water bed holds 60 gallons (230 liters), so settle the location before filling it.
02
A 115V / 15A dedicated circuit for the HMI and motion control, plus input power at 200-208V or 230V single-phase or 200-208V, 230V, 380V, 460V or 575V three-phase. Compressed air is required at 87-109 psi (6-7.5 bar), with flow listed as 380 SCFH (180 SLPM).
03
Lincoln Electric lists machine repeatability of 0.0015 in (0.0381 mm). The motion system behind that figure uses 20mm profile linear rail, three 3:1 belt reductions and spring loaded gear engagement. Finished part accuracy will be looser than the repeatability figure, because kerf width and edge angle vary with consumable wear.
04
5 in (127 mm). That is ample for plate up to the 1 in (25.4 mm) mild steel capacity, but it restricts structural shapes, formed parts and tall workholding, all of which have to pass beneath the gantry.
