OVERVIEW

Advanced Portable CNC Cutting Solution

The ESAB Crossbow Plasma Kit A60i is a fully integrated, portable CNC cutting system designed to bring automated precision to fabrication shops and field sites. This kit pairs the versatile Crossbow gantry system with the powerful Thermal Dynamics Cutmaster A60i plasma power source, creating a turnkey solution for mechanized cutting. Operating on 400V 3-phase power, the system is engineered for industrial environments requiring reliability and high throughput.

Technical Capabilities

The core of the system is the Crossbow gantry, which features a motorized lifter and Arc Voltage Height Control (AVHC). This technology automatically maintains the optimal torch height during cutting, compensating for plate warping or uneven surfaces to ensure consistent cut quality. The integrated CNC controller supports standard G-code and includes a built-in library of common geometric shapes, allowing operators to execute cuts immediately without external programming. For custom parts, files can be easily transferred via USB.

Power Source Specifications

The included Cutmaster A60i inverter power source delivers 60 Amps of cutting power with an impressive 80% duty cycle. It is capable of production piercing and cutting of mild steel up to 12mm (1/2 inch) and has a severance capacity of up to 30mm (1-1/4 inch). The unit features a quick-disconnect torch coupling and a lightweight, compact design that complements the portability of the Crossbow gantry. The system utilizes the SL100 SV 180-degree machine torch, known for its durability and consumable longevity.

System Integration

This kit is CE certified and designed for seamless integration. The central unit drives the stepper motors on the guide rails, providing smooth and accurate motion. The menu-driven interface is intuitive, reducing the learning curve for operators transitioning from manual to automated cutting. Whether used for structural steel, pipe fabrication, or general manufacturing, the Crossbow A60i kit offers a cost-effective alternative to full-sized cutting tables while maintaining high standards of precision.

FAQ

The A60i power source is rated for a recommended production cut of 12mm (1/2 inch) and a maximum severance cut of 30mm (1-1/4 inch).

No, the Crossbow has an integrated CNC controller with a built-in library of shapes. However, a computer is needed if you wish to create custom CAD/CAM files to load via USB.

The standard kit comes with a specific rail length, but extensions are typically available from ESAB to increase the longitudinal cutting area.

Yes, the Crossbow platform supports oxy-fuel cutting, but this specific kit is configured for plasma. You would need to purchase the oxy-fuel torch and accessories separately.

The Cutmaster A60i in this kit requires a 400V, 3-phase electrical input.

Yes, it features a motorized lifter with Arc Voltage Height Control (AVHC) to automatically maintain the correct torch-to-work distance.

The system is designed to be highly portable. The gantry and rails can be disassembled and moved by two people, making it ideal for site work.

The included SL100 SV torch uses standard Thermal Dynamics 1Torch consumables (e.g., 9-8215 electrode, 9-8210 start cartridge, and amperage-specific tips).
