I bought a Crossfire XL with water table, limit switches, THC, laptop stand, and the Razorweld 45 with machine torch. I'm actually hoping to have first fire this evening. I've wanted for one for a while, and after I added some auxiliary hydraulics on my tractor, I decided I didn't like the bracket that came with it, so I'd cut my own :). On the topic of high quality air, google for "compressor aftercooler". Basically, it's taking an automotive transmission cooler and water separator, and then plumbing it between the compressor head and the tank check valve. The advantage to this is it keeps water out of the tank, reducing corrosion. I've got a two water separators, a dessicant stage, and a Motor Guard 60 micron filter at the moment, but I'm going to add the aftercooler as soon as I can start cutting some brackets. FYI: It's your fault I bought the Crossfire :)

Finished building my JDsGarage plasma table about a month ago. Been fighting my little HF 3 in 1 Tig, Stick and Plasma machine with all the CNC EMI hardening stuff. It does cut but cannot plunge as initial torch height is critical for arc start. So I finally pulled the trigger on this Arcfony CUT53N cnc! Should be here today! I had watched this video a few months back but wasn't thinking of a plasma cutter at the time. Found this video again on researching the Arcfony, LOL. Great video as usual! Keep it up.

Just before Covid (spring of 2019) we bought a Crossfire basic table and a Miller 625 X-treme, had a terrible time with the software. Fusion 360 was terrible to use in our setting because it's internet based and our connection was very slow. Also the old Mach 3 which isn't dedicated to plasma cutting was less than user friendly. During the 1'st year of Covid our shop was shut down and the machine sat. The 2'nd April of covid (2021) we opened our shop and it was either get the Crossfire going or get rid of it. We threw Fusion away and bought QCAD and Sheetcam, meanwhile Languire came out with their ArcFire software. In about 2 weeks very part time we learned enough software and got everything running. My advice is Fusion is way more program than you need for simple 2D parts, SheetCam works and ArcFire is a game changer. Once you can CNC cut you look at projects completely differently.

Super interested in a comparison video, especially between the Arcfony and Razorcut. I still have the Crossfire Pro that I got right after seeing the one you got but the Razorcut plasma cutter has been giving me fits. I got one of the early ones that had the flawed circuit board and I took it up to Kent where one of the guys at Jasic did the mod that was supposed to fix it. Unfortunately it still doesn't like to pierce while stationary. As soon as the torch starts to move it makes it through, so I make my lead ins as long as possible and about half of the running feed rate. This only works on stuff that's less than .125" thickness with larger hole diameters. Thank you so much for doing all the work and making videos. I watch them all.
@Mikefestiva Жыл бұрын
It definitely sucks when the plasma cutter misses a a start, I have experienced that on occasion with the Titanium 45 and the Hynade. This is probably one miss start out of 50 starts or so. The Arcfony has been really good, it’s only missing a few starts out of hundreds I have made so far. So far I think it’s the most affordable CNC plug and play available on the market. The thing I like more about the Arcfony CUT53N then the Hynade CUT60DN is the Arcfony coming with an adjustable regulator and the Hynade is fixed at one air pressure. The Hynade has a really nice torch lead but I think the Arcfony’s lighter duty torch lead works better for the arcdroid because it’s built lighter and is more flexible for the arcdroid arm to easily move it. I’m sorry you are having so much trouble with the Razor weld plasma. For the cost of the Arcfony I think you would use your CNC table a lot more. Ps what software are you using? I have only used Fusion 360 but have heard a few others mention they use Sheetcam and QCAD. I’m thinking of looking into those programs.

Hi Mike, loved the Vid! Yes, would like to see a comparison on the Langmiur table and the ArcDroid. While at it, might also address which Langmiur table to get. For example, I think you have a larger one but not the Pro? A comparison maybe of the smaller table (4'x4' ?) and the ArcDroid would be particularly interesting since they are both kinda competing in the smaller size part space whereas the advantage of the larger Langmiur tables is obviously that one can do large parts. Another thing to consider is maybe being able to free hand manual plasma torch cutting of the main features of a large part (for example the outer perimeter) and then see about registering the large part to the small Langmiur table or ArcDroid to cut out small registered detail (like a plurality of precisely placed holes or features). I saw the registration trick done on another channel, so he could cut a 4'x8' sheet with a 4'x4' Lamgmiur table. I think most folks would probably be doing smaller parts more often (I kinda think that is what you are getting at with the ArcDroid), but may have need to do larger parts on occasion, so would like the capability to do those larger parts, even if it means fiddling with some gyrations. Thanks for all you do!

@Mikefestiva Жыл бұрын
Right on man that’s great you started a channel! Well I would say either CNC cutter will be a complete game changer for you. I would say the learning curve for the software on the arcdroid is much faster to learn and start cutting, although it’s pretty basic software. The Arcdroid is smaller so it takes up less room but you need to build a cutting table for it. The Crossfire pro is built into a water table but does take a lot more room in a shop. You also have to build the table/CNC. The learning curve for the third party software is slow to learn. Over all if you want to make projects around your place and for YT videos and maybe a little side work cutting parts the the Arcdroid is probably best. If you want to do all that plus start a side business cutting custom CNC parts the Crossfire is probably the best, table size is much bigger and I feel you can get more work done when cutting with it, but the down side I mainly see is the third party software is really slow to learn and slow to make simple changes to the design. Hope this helps 👍

I think this is the best value for a blow back pilot arc start plasma with CNC pugs on the market.consumables are also very affordable. Consumables can get fairly pricey on most name brand plasma cutters. So far I haven’t had any issues with it, time will tell? The plasma I have had the most time cutting on my other table is the Titanium 45, it’s cut a few thousand feet of metal so far and it’s still going good after 4 plus years but it doesn’t have CNC ports and it’s about $900. As long as most of the metal you plan to cut is 1/4” and under I think the Arcfony would be a great plasma for your CNC table.👍

Mike, love the video. I apologize if this has already been answered, can you tell me the tolerance the Arcdroid can hold?

Hi Mike. Can you please share you machine setups? Cut speeds, amps, etc. Just ordered the same machine 😊 Maybe in Arcdroid forum? Im new to plasmacutting and arcdroid.

What are your thoughts on connecting and using the Hynade CUT60DN with the ArcDroid? I bought it sometime back after watching your video.

I think the Hynade CUT60DN will work great with the Arcdroid 👍 I have my Hynade CUT60 hooked to my Langmuir table. The Hynade will have a better duty cycle then the Arcfony but I haven’t ever hit the duty cycle on either unit yet. 😊
