I have seen several different schemes for integrating a rotary tube cutter into a plasma table. Many use a motorized rotary stage which mounts to the table when in use, and removed when not in use. Also some versions where the tube rolls along the table surface - I think the new PlasmaCam table uses that sort of setup. I opted to build a stand-alone pipe/tube cutter that will run from my table controller, but has dedicated hardware - so it doesn't depend on any mechanisms mounted to the actual plasma table.OutlawSteel wrote: ↑Wed Aug 28, 2024 9:17 am The table looks amazing and it would definitely be one I’d like to model after when I build one. I especially like the height of the slats and water pan edges in relation to the rails of the table. Looks like you put a lot of thought into ease of use regarding material handling when you designed it! I’d be interested in your build list if you don’t mind. I have limited room in my shop, but also want to integrate a rotary somehow. Leaning more towards the Joe Jones option right now. Anyway thanks again and congrats on an awesome build!
Let us know what you come up with when you get started on your build.
