Factors determining cutting quality from CNC Flame Cutting Machine:

1. Cutting Precision: CNC Flame Cutting Machine has the same cutting precision as other types of CNC Cutting Machine: Plasma cutting and laser cutting. The difference only lies in roughness of cutting kerf;
2. Production Process Technology: CNC Flame Cutting Machine has the same order to deliver value chain with other types of CNC Cutting Machine: Mechanical structure / CNC control system/ Outsourced parts. The difference only lies in specific cutting technology;
3. Cutting Torch Movement in plasma and flame CNC Plate Cutting Machine along X and Y axis are driven with servo motor, and guided with heavy duty precise linear guiderail;

4. Cutting Torch Height Controller in Flame CNC Cutting Machine:

In CNC Oxygen Fuel Flame Cutting Machine, capacitance type height controller is installed onto CNC control cutting torch;

5. Auto Ignitor in CNC Flame Cutting Machine:

Cutting torches in flame CNC Plate Cutting Machine is equipped with auto ignitor. This helps efficient and automatic ignition of cutting gas, in safe and reliable way.
