Our Improved Heavy-Duty Construction Cutting Machine
The MPC2000 MC is a highly flexible, multi-process Messer cutting machine that can be equipped with multiple carriages for up to five separate processes including precision plasma, Oxyfuel, drilling up to 2.5”, milling, and markers, with the ability to install up to 4 tool stations.
This plasma cutter delivers clean, smooth cut part edges and precise cut holes, all with high accuracy and repeatability. The MPC2000 MC includes linear motion ways, and state-of-the-art AC servo drives provide dependable machine tool performance.
The drilling and milling high-suction chip vacuum system allows for a cleaner table surface and work area. This system prevents chips from flying off the surface table for operator safety and height-sensing accuracy. There is also a collection hopper for recycling steel chips.
Integrating the MPC2000 MC will improve your plate processing in a number of ways. Built for heavy-duty structural steel processing, in applications like truck manufacturing and tank cutting, this machine is the perfect fit for multiple types of industries such as steel service centers, shipbuilding, the rail industry, oil and gas, construction, mining, and big agriculture.

Machining Capabilities of the Improved MPC2000 MC
We can equip your MPC2000 MC with carriages to perform up a variety of functions.
Precision Plasma Cutting
For fast, accurate, high-quality cuts, the MPC2000 MC performs well as a plasma cutting table. We offer precision plasma cutting capabilities up to 800 amps on this machine. With precision plasma the lifter equipped on this machine is the PL-1 Plasma Torch Lifter with the SureStop Collision Sensor.
Oxyfuel Cutting
Oxyfuel provides consistent piercing and faster cutting results. With options for auto torch spacing, automated gas regulation, automatic height control, MPC2000 MC can achieve repeatable high standards through precision technology. This machine can be equipped with multiple torches ALFA or Turbo Flame™.
Drilling and Milling
The MD250 Drill Unit offers a 24 tool rotary drill tool changers, allowing for automatic tool replacement for faster drilling. Using the enhanced machining process allows the ability to drill up to 2.5 inch diameter on 6” thick mild steel and, tap 1.5” 6 unc for the 2.5’ drill or milling critical internal features.
Marking
When you need to mark stainless steel, mild steel or aluminum, choosing the right marking tool for the MPC2000 MC can help your company save time by cutting and marking on the same piece part. Marking equipment can easily and precisely create durable marks for long lasting legibility and permanency.
Markers:
- Inkjet Marker
- Powder
- Telesis Pinstamp.
Curve Bevel Cutting
When bevel cutting thicker plates, Oxyfuel is best for over 3”. This method is economical, accurate, and precise, granting you more control over the process.
If you are working with plates that are up to three inches thick, plasma bevel cutting is the only way to go. With plasma beveler cutters, the Delta E or the Global Rotator Infinity can cut angles K,V, X, Y, I with max bevel angles +45° to -45°.
Chip Vacuum Extraction and Collection
When cutting, drilling, milling, or marking plates, you will typically create “chips” of material that can accumulate on the workstation. The MPC2000 MC has built-in chip vacuum extraction and collection features to keep your work surface clean and clear. There is a collection hopper for recycling steel chips. A dust collector is required for chip collection.
Cutting Tables
The Slagger®
The Slagger® cutting table is like no other in its ability to move slag. Whether produced from oxyfuel or plasma cutting, the slag moves from one side of the table and deposits the slag into a collection bucket at the end of the table in just minutes.
Table Sizes Available:
- Widths from 6′ to 24′ (1.8288m to 7.3152m).
- Lengths from 10′ to 200′ (3.048m to 60.96m).
Shuttle Tables
Our shuttle burn table will enhance productivity at your business by enabling fast and easy production as well as the flexibility that is simply not possible using other plate cutting systems. Combined with Intelligent Cutting™ software solutions for Material Handling and Industry 4.0 digitization advancements, your facility will greatly benefit from harnessing the power of the whole value chain.
Shuttle Pallets Key Features
Save time by using the shortest path for material loading and unloading in material handling applications. Plate loading and unloading take place at one end of the machine and at a common height for the operator to work freely without interfering with cutting operations or machine movement. Two burn pallets load one plate or remove parts while another is cutting without interruption.
- Plate capacity: 6, 8, and 10-foot widths.
- Plate lengths: 10 to 25 feet, offered in 5-foot increments.
- Two plate thickness capacities: ¾ inch up to 2 inches.
Slat Trays for Drilling
A slat tray assembly is a fabricated structure that holds the slats and allows them to be replaced quickly in modules rather than individually. Drawings are available for users to make replacements. Optional designs include standard slats for drilling applications.
