Introduction
A study of industry standards reveals industry best practices as a basis for open-sourcing the techniques. Deep understanding of industry standard design rationales facilitates conversion to open source variant.
List of Available Torch Tables and Associated Cost/Performance
- Plasma CAM - 4x4 foot area - $12-15k if height sensor.
- TorchMate
XYZ Drive
- Rack and pinion with geardown on 3 axes is by far the best option for optimizing performance/cost ratios
