Industrial CNC Oxy-fuel and Plasma Cutting Machine
The PCL GROUP Combined CNC Oxy-fuel & Plasma Cutting Machine is engineered for maximum flexibility when processing large-format metal plates. Built on a heavily reinforced, stress-relieved steel gantry and driven by high-precision stepper or servo motors, this dual-head machine lets you seamlessly switch between the sheer power of Oxy-fuel (for extreme carbon steel thicknesses) and the high-speed velocity of Plasma (for rapid, dross-free stainless steel and aluminum processing). It serves as an indispensable workhorse for structural steel shops, shipyards, and heavy machinery fabrication plants worldwide.

Why Choose PCL GROUP Dual-Process CNC Technology?
🛠️ Cost-Effective Two-in-One Architecture
By blending high-speed plasma and heavy-gauge oxy-fuel cutting systems onto a single rugged gantry frame, you cover 100% of your metal processing needs without spending money on two independent machines, saving valuable warehouse floor space.
🔥 Monumental Thickness Capacity (Oxy-fuel)
The flame cutting torch utilizes a balanced oxy-fuel gas delivery mechanism (Oxygen + Propane/Acetylene) to slice through carbon steel plates up to 150mm thick with perfectly perpendicular edge verticality and clean pierces.
⚡ Blazing-Fast Speeds on Thin Metal (Plasma)
Paired with reactive Torch Height Controllers (THC), the plasma unit continuously regulates torch-to-plate distances automatically. This results in incredibly clean, high-precision cuts on stainless steel, carbon steel, and aluminum.
🧠 Automated Nesting & Smart Control CNC
The microstep system features high-efficiency nesting software that optimizes part layouts automatically. This maximizes material utilization per sheet, cuts down scrap metal waste, and lowers operating expenses dramatically.
