Extra Information
The beam is a welded, fabricated structure with numerous stiffeners that yields an extremely rigid gantry. The beam is machined to the tightest tolerance to achieve high accuracy over the life of the machine.
This low-profile dual side drive gantry sits on a 85# heavy-duty crane rail system mounted on H beams, providing a sturdy, stable foundation and easy installation. Rail systems are available in increments of 8 t. (2738 mm) up to 104 ft.
Cut quality and accuracy are dependent upon smooth, precise motion control in both axes. The Sabre DX does this by matching digital AC drive amplifiers with AC brushless motors and precision extra heavy-duty gear boxes with rack-and-pinion gearing. The gearbox features an oversized output bearing and output shaft to reduce torsional wind-up and increase torque capacity. Drive racks are mounted directly to the machined sides of the rail, ensuring consistent rack to rail alignment. All three drives are mounted on dual linear rail engagement slides, for perfect pinion alignment and very low backlash.
The Sabre DX achieves standard positioning accuracy of +/- 0.015" over a 60" area, with repeatability of +/- 0.005". A "plus" option features dual-linear rails on the Y-axis to improve accuracy to +/- 0.010", and repeatability to +/- 0.003.
Available processes on the Sabre DX include plasma, oxy-fuel, three torch edge prep, plasma marking, air-scribe, punch marking, routing and drilling.
