Maximum Performance Maximum Productivity and
Maximum Value ...choose the EdgeMax from
Messer Cutting Systems.
The EdgeMax offers rugged unitized construction, multiple plasma options, and versatility to
economically meet the needs of your shop. Messer's EdgeMax does it all.
It's ideal for the HVAC, blowpipe, original equipment and fabrication shops. Whether you
require conventional or precision plasmas, the EdgeMax can be tailored to your shop's
specific needs.
The EdgeMax will be a welcome addition - not only because of its ease of operation but
more importantly, how dramatically it will improve your shops productivity.
This machine has the ability to cut mild steel, stainless steel and aluminum.
Your productivity is maximized with the EdgeMax's fast acceleration and precise motion. Its
unitized design includes a zoned and ducted exhaust table, Global "S" control on the operator
station and a very robust design that is equipped to handle up to four hundred amp plasma. This
is an extremely rugged machine at a very affordable price.
The EdgeMax sports a rugged unitized steel table and frame, full capture bearing assemblies,
low backlash planetary gearboxes, and a low mass, high stiffness aluminum beam driven
by dual brushless AC motors. This provides fast acceleration, precise motion and a very
stable cutting platform.
The reinforced aluminum beam and endtrucks provide a superior gantry. This design creates
an excellent platform for higher acceleration and provides better holes and sharper corners...plus
it reduces part cleanup.
The heavy-duty rack and pinion drive system provides long life, which maximizes value.
The table can be configured in plate widths of six feet, eight feet or ten feet and plate
lengths of twelve or twenty-four feet to suit your shop and cutting needs.
We've added a heat-resistant glare shield, which magnetically attaches to the torch to
maximize production.
With the EdgeMax you also have maximum flexibility. You can choose to have the operator's station
mounted on the left or right side, whichever works best with your shops workflow.
The EdgeMax has a low profile design - no obtrusive cabinets. No ducting along the sides
of the table - so your operator can get closer - he can easily reach over for part handling
or part identification. When the EdgeMax is in the park position -- three sides are clear
for plate and part handling.
The table is a deep design with no floor. It's designed to handle up to two and a half
inch material and up to four hundred amp power, so it's rugged enough for heavy plate.
The EdgeMax comes with a standard zoned and ducted table to extract harmful smoke. This
table uses an energy efficient, low horsepower, dust collector motor - so your shop is cleaner
and more efficient.
All tables have doors that make it easy for part recovery. Plus, "removable" modular slat
frames and "renewable" slats that make it easy to clean..... increasing your productivity.
The specially designed wave-lock slats are installed in an "S" pattern, which accommodates
a pure x or y axis move and reduces any blemishes caused by cutting over a slat. This design
improves part cleanup and edge quality.
You can also select from an optional Messer dust collector and spark trap designed to
work with your table.
The best part of the EdgeMax's unitized design is "installation". It's quick and easy! Just
take it off the truck.....drop it into place,..... level.....hookup gases....... and start cutting!
The EdgeMax uses a rack and pinion drive system with planetary gearboxes to give you
both reliability and high performance. These Alpha planetary gearboxes have low backlash
in both the X and Y-axes for sharp corners and round holes.
Large two and five eights inch diameter hardened pinions are used in both the X and Y axes,
to efficiently transmit torque to the one inch wide gear rack.
The EdgeMax uses three brushless six-hundred watt AC drives, capable of creating the high
acceleration speeds you need to get from part to part, this will maximize your cutting time
and cut quality.
The EdgeMax has a top positioning speed of twelve hundred inches per minute which increases
productivity.
The EdgeMax supports a full range of standard and precision plasma torches. As an example,
you can choose a plasma torch to cut from thirty to four hundred amps. This will allow
you to cut material from gauge thickness, through two inches.
Precision plasmas can be used with the EdgeMax because of the smooth drive motion and the
precise height control achieved with the OL200's control system. This true arc-voltage height
control system maintains consistent height over all surfaces, including warped or diamond
embossed plate.
With the built-in automatic electrode wear compensation, consistant cut quality is insured
throughout the entire life of the electrode. The lifter utilizes the "Safe Raise Height"
feature in the EdgeMax's Global Control S to increase productivity by allowing machine
motion while the torch is fully retracting.
While cutting, the magnetic collision sensor protects the torch in all three axes. The
lifter provides vertical speed up to three hundred inches per minute so it can rapidly
clear obstructions as it transverses the table.
For thin sheet metal where an economical low-power plasma is used, Messer Cutting Systems offers
a roller ball height control, which applies pressure to keep the material flat.
If you need oxy-fuel cutting, select the Messer Turboflame torch. This torch provides
cutting speeds up to twenty percent faster than other torches. The oxyfuel torch is accurately
positioned using smooth ballscrew driven lifters.
The EdgeMax lets you cut and mark with optional marking processes. A marker can be added to
reduce manual marking and increase productivity. Choose an air scribe, or non-rotational ink-jet
to provide marks for bend lines, drill points, or weld locations.
EdgeMax is powered by the Messer's Global S, CNC control with touch screen interface
and a familiar Windows screen layout.
Messer's Global S control is engineered to maximize the machines performance. This is
not some off the shelf control adapted to the machine. It's a custom control for plasma
cutting that can harness the amazing ability of the EdgeMax.
Over one hundred years of worldwide expertise in the metal cutting industry has gone into
our new PC-based control, incorporating the latest .NET technology from Microsoft. Our
easy-to-use interface with familiar screen layout and on-board material database allow
operators to set up quickly with minimal instruction and cut high quality parts time after time
- so any operator will quickly master the machine operation. And an embedded process
database makes every operator an expert.
A familiar Windows screen layout allows users to operate the control with minimal instruction.
An Ethernet based I/O bus system eliminates noise interference and reduces cabling for
high reliability.
The compact design of the Global S with its central CNC computer with integrated PLC.....provides
fast operation with fewer components.
A standard part shapes library and nesting software is included.
With regular upgrades to meet the ever-changing demands of the cutting industry, your global
control can grow with you.
Messer Cutting Systems is committed to providing quality cutting machines which is evidenced
