4 X 2 CNC Plasma Table Question
Posted: Tue Apr 10, 2018 8:24 am
Good Morning Forum members,
Starting a build on a planned 4 X 2 cnc plasma table and had a question as to a gantry height for the build. I will be using 2 inch box tubing @ .120 wall for all the major components on the table (legs, table, gantry, and gantry riser). Will have a 4 inch deep water pan with 3 inch slats flush with top of pan/table top surface. I am planning to use a straight cnc torch not a handheld style to mount on the Z lead screw and wanted to know if there is any standard height for the bottom of the gantry cross tube to clear the table top when building (6, 8, 10 inches, etc.) ? Maybe someone knows what the Plasma Cam has for clearance on theirs?
