What did you think of the Nova 24?
I started with Nolan in China, and then found the US distributor in Texas. After working with both, Thunderlaser, China has advised me to purchase through the US distributor.
I am a retired engineer, and have started seriously investigating a laser cutter/engraver for hobby work. I just wanted to complement Thunderlaser on their pre-sales support, both Nolan in China,...
I just purchase a TD SL100 Machine Torch and received two shield caps. The 9-8245 Machine cap was installed, and the 9-8243 Deflector cap was in a bag.
I can't find any information in the torch...
I just placed an order for a 4 x 4 plasam table from Presicion Plasma, and electronics from CandCNC.
My existing plasma cutter is a Thermal Dynamics Cutmaster 51, with the SL60 hand torch. To...
Very interesting. judleroy you are correct. The metric line on VXB is less money. They also do not carry the NB label, which I hadn't noticed before. So they appear to be an unnamed brand. Also...
Your comments on cost are interesting. I priced a pair of THK SSR15XTB1SS cars and SR15-1480LY rails for ~$700 on their Online store. I compaired this to the NB Ball Bushing TWD10WUU cars and...
The catalogs for Linear Ball Bushing rails typically show either end supports suspending a rail for a closed carriage, or continuous supports with an open carriage. The continuos supports add...
Glacern,
P.S. Can you say at this time which Manufacturer you are going to carry, Thomson, NB, Pacific Bearing???
Thanks for the info.
I think it was THK that I asked about linear ball bushings vs. linear rails, as they manufacture both. They said that the higher load rating of the linear rails made them...
I am in the process of designing my own CnC Plasma Cutting Table, starting with a 4x4 table that could be expanded to 4x8'. A small shop table aimed at general cutting and some art work.
I find 3...
Thanks Jim,
Just to make sure I'm clear, this is 0.04 x g, or 0.04 x 32.2 ft/sec^2 ~= 15.5 in/sec^2. This is much less than the min. 50 in/sec^2 listed in one fabricators specs.

I am in the process of designing my own CnC Plasma Cutting Table. I have estimates for the mass of the Gantry. What I am not sure of is the acceleration / decceleration I should design for to size...
