The report is taking about industrial CNC plasma cutting
machine and how to build it from zero. Because of the
significant gap between the global and local industrial
markets and it’s hard to import this kind of industrial machine
to our local market due to its very high cost and the lot
restrictions on it from Israel government this machine was built.
The machine is used for cutting sheet metals in different
thickness 1-10mm using Hypertherm PowerMax 45 plasma
cutter machine. This report will discuss the building process for
the machine from zero. Which will talk about mechanical
architecture for the X, Y, and Z axes with dimensions
(workspace) up to 280cm in the X-axis and 125cm in the Y-axis
and will talk about the principle of motion between these axes
in terms. Then, the controlling principle that used MACH3
software to control these axes and the driving motors which
these drivers are used to control stepper motors, stepper
motor is used to get a linear motion along the axes.
