TFP3062 6x12 Added to Twister Product Line
New to the Komatsu Twister product line is the
TFP3062.
This 6 ft. by 12 ft. machine is
similar in design to the new
TFP3051 Mark IIIα 5 ft. by 10 ft. machine,
and provides a compact
solution when larger table size is needed, but the larger
machines of the
TFPL series
would require too much space.
The Twister TFP3062 and TFP3051 Mark IIIα
feature the new model Fanuc 0i-MC CNC,
and rearranged gas setup for easier operation.
The TFP3062 and TFP3051 feature Twister 30 kW (150 Amp) Fine Plasma torch that will cut Mild Steel up to 1" thick, Aluminum up to 5/8", and Stainless Steel up to 3/4". They also include the QuickSilver process that produces superior cutting speeds and edge quality when cutting Stainless Steel.

Hybrid Plasma and Laser,
THB Series
The
Twister Hybrid THB6082
has both a 300 amp (60kw) fine plasma torch,
and a 3.2 kw laser on the same 8 by 20 ft. table.
It is capable of alternating plasma and laser cutting
on the same part. This allows you to take advantage
of the best of both cutting methods on one table without additional
setup.
The laser enables the machine to cut thinner material, and
cut smaller more accurate holes in plasma cut parts.
For many applications, high definition, Fine Plasma cutting
is all you need.
Click here to see why Twister Fine Plasma
may be all you need, or may compliment your existing
laser machine. If you really need laser, then consider
the
Komatsu Twister THB
Hybid Plasma and Laser Cutting Machine.

Twister Fine Plasma
Komatsu's
Twister Fine Plasma products represent
the latest technology in plasma cutting of metals
that started with the first line of Fine Plasma
cutting machines in 1989. In the 1990's through
today the Komatsu Fine Plasma technology has been
the backbone of the
Rasor Series
of Fine Plasma
Cutting Machines recognized for the high quality
precision cutting and outstanding service and support.
The Twister Series continues this tradition,
adding more power and patented technology enhancements that
produce superior cut surface finishes to laser
at a fraction of
the initial cost, production time, and production cost.
The Twister Series is available to expand your production
capacity and to start saving now!
Komatsu Fine Plasma power supplies, torches, and cutting machines
are designed and built by Komatsu Industries Corporation (KIC).

TFP3051 30 kW 5 x 10 ft.
The
TFP3051
features a 5 ft. by 10 ft. cutting
surface and the Twister 30 kW (150 Amp) Fine Plasma
torch. It will cut Mild Steel up to 1" thick,
Aluminum up to 5/8", and Stainless Steel up to 3/4".
It includes the QuickSilver process that produces
superior cutting speeds and edge quality when cutting
Stainless Steel. Cutting speeds are improved and dross
is reduced due to
the high power plasma unit and high speed Twister
gas. Pierce times are reduced due to incorporating
automatic gas change during the touch sensor cycle.
Cut quality is improved by control of main gas flow
and arc mode based on hole size. Spraying anti-spatter
directly through the torch improves hole cut quality
and consumables life. The push-pull zoned exhaust system
greatly reduces fumes while cutting. A mechanical
spatter splash shield is activated during piercing.
The February 2007 issue of FFJournal has an article titled
"Winds of Change, A new kind of twister hits Hickey Metal Fabrication".
This article describes Hickey Metal Fabrication's
experience with the
Twister TFP3051
Order the
TFP3051 with the High Body Factory Installed Option
to increase the Z-Axis stroke from 5 in. to about 12 in.
This allows cutting of square pipe and other structural members
without decreasing accuracy when cutting sheet metal and plate.

TFPL Series 30 and 60 kW, 8 or 10 ft. by 20 or 40 ft.
The
TFPL Series features larger table sizes,
and all of the cutting technology
enhancements described above with the TFP3051.
Tables are available in 8 or 10 ft. widths
and 20 or 40 ft. lengths. Choose either
the 30 kW (150 Amp) or 60 kW (300 Amp)
Twister Fine Plasma Unit and Torch.
The 60 kW Fine Plasma includes the cutting
capabilities of the 30 kW, but extends the
maximum cutting capacity for Mild Steel to
1.5" by using the higher plasma power unit and larger
nozzle sizes. A light curtain and tape emergency
stop are included for safety. Ultra-solid carriage,
and linear guides achieve high quality, precision
cutting.
Extended length machines are available in 1 meter increments
up to around 100 feet.
See some extended length TFPL Machines installed in China...
The TFPV Series features a bevel cutting 60 kW torch
that can be used to accurately and efficiently cut welding grooves.
A CCD Camera is used in second cut positioning to compensate
for piece movement after the first cut.

Rasor Quality Program
We want your Rasor to economically produce the best quality parts.
We offer
Preventative Maintenance Programs (PSPs), Mechanical Overhaul Services, and Operator Training Programs.
Call for details on how we can improve your machine's performance.
Planned Service Programs:
We offer
3 one year programs to fit within your budget.
Benefits are decreased down time, better part quality, and they may
save you money on service, parts, and consumables.
Mechanical Overhaul Service:
Save time and money by giving your Rasor a much needed overhaul.
Doing an overhaul now can save you money compared with service calls
to fix things later. Save time and money on the parts you cut by getting
optimum cut quality and reducing secondary operations. Save money
on consumable parts by reducing cut time, recuts, and premature
electrode and nozzle failure.
Make your old Rasor machine cut like new again. Let us overhaul your X, Y, and Z Axis. Services include new racks and pinions, rails and bearings, belts and much more.
Operator Training:
A well trained operator can make a big difference in terms of
production time, down time, part quality, and consumable cost.
