September 11, 2023 - ESAB today launched its Combirex Pro, an enhanced version of its best-selling cutting machine with improved accuracy, durability and speed for automated plasma and oxy-fuel cutting and beveling. New features include dual linear rails on the cross beam and heavy-duty crane rails mounted on H-beams on both sides of the machine for X axis movement. A redesigned side carriage increases maximum travel speeds to 1,400 ipm (35.5 m/min), a 40% improvement. The Combirex Pro will be exhibited in ESAB booth B20063 at FABTECH, held September 11 - 14 in Chicago.
“The Combirex Pro now uses the same heavy-duty crane rails as our bigger Suprarex™ large gantry cutting machine,” says Steve Zlotnicki, Global Product Manager, ESAB Cutting Systems. “Our objective with the Combirex Pro re-design was to create a more robust, longer-life and high-accuracy machine with a compact footprint. With a Combirex Pro, users can tackle more applications without having to step up to a larger machine or worry about taking up too much floor space. The redesign also enables users to gain the full speed and accuracy capabilities of our precision drives, motors and controllers.”
The Combirex Pro now offers an additional 19.7 in. (500 mm) of cross travel, which enables users to cut a 10-ft. (3m) plate even if the machine is equipped with ESAB’s DMX Beveller and a water table. The Combirex Pro is available in five different width options from 5 to 10 ft. (1.5 to 3 m) and with rail lengths from 16.4 to 65.6 ft. (5 to 20 m). It can be equipped with four tools, including one plasma torch or up to four gas torches, as well as marking tools.
The Combirex Pro comes with ESAB’s next-generation Vision T6™ CNC controller and works with ESAB’s iSeries high-precision plasma power sources in configurations from 130 to 600 amps. It also incorporates ESAB’s SmartCycle 2.0 technology to increase productivity, and it works with ESAB’s Columbus® CAD/CAM software and InduSuite CutCloud™ analytic applications.
“As part of an ESAB integrated system, the Combirex Pro delivers shorter cycle times, more precise cuts, more efficient workflow and reduced cost per part,” says Zlotnicki.
The Combirex Pro is equipped with an innovative safety package that provides full compliance with EC Machinery Directive. It features light curtains and bumper guards on the front and back of each side carriage and locates the Vision T6 controller between the light curtains.
“We made operation intrinsically safer because the light curtains will detect people within the work envelope and stop the system in the event of an incident,” says Zlotnicki. “This helps protect workers who are not aware of the moving gantry, may have fallen unconsciously on the table or who try to intentionally step over or under the light curtain.”
To improve serviceability, users can quickly and easily disengage the rail axis drives using a simple cam-lock lever. This system improves machine motion and pinion life with a fixed pinion-to-tooth engagement instead of a tension spring.
The ability to use plasma beveling on a smaller cutting table, such as the Combirex Pro, is possible because DMX Beveller reduces the size and weight of the beveling head. The DMX Beveller works in conjunction with ESAB’s SquareCut Technology, which can further improve the productivity of automated plasma cutting operations. SquareCut Technology tilts the torch to compensate for the 1- to 3-degree edge angle inherent in high-precision plasma cutting to provide three distinct benefits: a High-Speed Mode cuts up to two times faster without increasing bevel angle; a Quality Mode creates a cut surface with a 0 to 1 degree bevel and improved Enhanced Hole Technology to cut smaller holes with better cylindricity.
