0560954397 - ESAB Crossbow Acetylene Oxy-Fuel Cutting Package

Expand Your CNC Capabilities with the ESAB Crossbow Oxy-Fuel Kit

The ESAB Crossbow is renowned for its portability and versatility in the world of automated cutting. To fully leverage this compact CNC gantry system, the ESAB Crossbow Oxy-Fuel Kit (Acetylene) (SKU: 0560954397) is an essential upgrade for fabricators dealing with heavy mild steel plate. While plasma systems offer speed on thinner gauges, oxy-fuel remains the industry standard for piercing and cutting thick sections efficiently and economically. This kit is engineered specifically to integrate seamlessly with the Crossbow's existing architecture, providing a robust solution for mechanized flame cutting.

This comprehensive package transforms your Crossbow unit into a dual-process machine. It includes a high-quality machine torch designed for acetylene gas, ensuring a hot, concentrated preheat flame ideal for rapid piercing and clean cuts. The kit features a dedicated solenoid valve manifold that interfaces directly with the Crossbow's CNC controller. This allows for precise, automated control of the cutting oxygen and preheat gases, eliminating the variability of manual torch operation. The inclusion of all necessary mounting brackets and gas hoses ensures a straightforward installation process, minimizing downtime during the switch from plasma to oxy-fuel.

Mechanized oxy-fuel cutting with the Crossbow allows for consistent travel speeds and torch height control (when paired with the appropriate lifter), resulting in superior edge quality that often requires little to no secondary grinding. By utilizing acetylene, operators benefit from faster preheat times and reduced gas consumption compared to other fuel gases. Whether you are processing structural components, heavy machinery parts, or performing field repairs, this OEM kit ensures your ESAB Crossbow operates at peak performance with factory-verified compatibility.

Key Technical Benefits:

• Automated Control: Integrated solenoids manage gas flow for consistent start/stop cycles.
• Thick Plate Capacity: Enables cutting of steel thicknesses far beyond the range of standard portable plasma units.
• Plug-and-Play: Designed by ESAB for the Crossbow, ensuring perfect mechanical and electrical fit.
