Kerf Developments’ heavy duty oxy-fuel RUM profiling machine boasts Burny CNC

Kerf Developments has announced its oxy-fuel cutting RUM series of heavy duty profiling machines for processing small or extremely large parts from 3 to 300 mm in thickness as standard.

The robust RUM profiling machine design is complemented by the innovative Burny 10 LCD plus CNC controller which enables accuracy and repeatability on customer-tailored bed dimensions typically ranging from 2.5 by 5 m up to 5 m by 100 m. The Burny CNC control fully automates the process for ease of use. Incorporating a material database, the operator can enter the material type and thickness and let the Burny 10 CNC automatically calculate the cutting parameters. Additionally, it includes nesting software that assigns tailored lead-ins, lead-outs and cutting technology for each individual component to improve part quality. Optionally, the RUM machine can be configured with up to six cutting heads to simultaneously cut six parts, which says Kerf Developments, saves material while increasing the productivity of batches or production runs. The bridge construction machine base is a rigid fabrication and the machine is driven by twin side rack and pinion drives, heavy duty servo motors and planetary gearboxes that are digitally synchronised and controlled by the Burny CNC system. As well as accuracy and repeatability, says Kerf Developments, the build quality is specified to give the heavy duty machine a long working life.
