ESAB offers retrofit upgrade packages to existing ESAB users

ESAB Cutting Systems is offering plasma cutting retrofit upgrade packages to users of ESAB cutting machines so that they can maximise their potential without investing in a replacement. The benefits of retrofit range from improved quality of cut and reduced operational costs to increased cutting speeds, increased cutting thicknesses and improved consumable lifetimes.

Users can select from a comprehensive range of plasma systems, torches, controllers and software packages to create an upgraded system. These include the m3 plasma system with a choice of systems for piercing up to 50 mm mild steel. They can be combined with the latest PT 36 plasma torch for cutting and marking as well as the Vision 51R CNC control system. Columbus III, the latest programming software, makes it easier to program cutting requirements as well as labelling and marking processes. In conjunction with the m3 plasma system, Columbus III can provide high cut quality with precision hole technology. The retrofit of fume extraction equipment, water tables and associated filters will help to create a safer and cleaner working environment.
