The Silhouette® 1000 has the capacity to handle up to five cutting stations. Station configurations can include four oxygen/fuel-gas torches, one plasma torch or combine up to four oxygen/fuel-gas stations and one plasma station. Optional motorized lifts are available as well as a festoon system to ease movement of cables and hoses along the rail.

Part programs can be created directly from templates. All cutting functions and machine travel are controlled quickly and accurately. In addition, parts can be nested for even more efficient use of material.
