Messer Cutting Systems’ MetalMaster Evolution® comes outfitted with a number of standard features like The Slagger® cutting table and includes scores of optional features such as plasma beveling, oxyfuel cutting, drilling, marking, vertical pipe cutting, water table, and so much more.
MetalMaster Evolution® Highlights
The MetalMaster Evolution® is a feature-rich plasma cutting machine, offering smooth edge quality, precise hole cutting, and high accuracy.
With high-quality components and the strictest assembly and testing methods within the marketplace, the MetalMaster Evolution® will take your shop to the next level.
Global Control
The MetalMaster Evolution® has an easy-to-use Windows® 10 interface. The Global ControlS is a compact touch-screen process database featuring a custom shape library, CAD import, and True-Shape Nesting. Service experts are just a button push away via Virtual Service™. Easy-to-learn functions enable employees to become expert operators in minutes.
Axis Drives
The MetalMaster Evolution® features high machine accuracy with positioning speeds up to 1,700 inches per minute with an acceleration of 38 inches per second2 in all axes. This plasma-cutting machine also features precision rack-and-pinion drives in the X and Y axes. It also has ultra-smooth planetary gearboxes in the X and Y axes. Dual X-axis drives provide accuracy in cut parts.
Bearings Assembly
Each MetalMaster Evolution® carriage uses four-bearing way encapsulation with wide spacing to provide stable support. Gothic arch bearings on circular ways provide eight contact points per carriage for smooth precise motion. Ways and gear racks are attached to the way surfaces by special grooves in the extrusion, enabling future table extensions.
Beam Support
The MetalMaster Evolution® also features an extruded aluminum beam and X-axis ways, providing support and high strength while reducing weight. The cross-braced beam is extremely rigid, providing higher acceleration and resulting in accurate cut parts and smooth motion.
