MultiCam Inc. (Dallas, TX) offers plasma operators an option for drilling and tapping large holes in steel plate.
The Max40 drill and tap spindle mounts next to a high-performance Hypertherm torch on MultiCam’s heavy-duty 6000 Series bridge and rail plasma system. The Max40 spindle can drill holes up to 1.125 in in diameter and has an optional 8-position tool changer for automatic tapping as well. The system also has an optional Z-axis probe to accurately determine the Z-axis plane on warped or inconsistent sheet. This option allows the system to drill and tap blind holes very accurately.
Coolant is applied through the center of the cutting head, allowing operators to extend the life of the tooling and improve the amount and location of lubricant applied.
