Thanks to powerful air plasma technology, you can manufacture components quickly and economically. Straight cuts, cylindrical holes, and slotted holes? No problem—thanks to the integrated angle correction feature.
XFLARE
Benefits of plasma cutting
All-in-1
The plasma cutting system comes ready to use and pre-configured with a calibrated torch hose package and power source.
Quick start system
The XFLARE is immediately operational via Plug & Play: simply connect power and compressed air and start after a short learning phase.
Versatile application
Perfect for various requirements and for a wide range of materials and sheet thicknesses – starting from just one piece!
Wear parts
Accelerated workflow through quick tool-free wear part replacement.
Less post-processing
Minimal post-processing due to pre-configured process parameters and active angle correction saves time and costs – while maintaining consistently high quality.
Weld preparation
Components can be precisely beveled using the 6-axis head.
Active angle correction
Angle errors of the plasma arc are compensated, enabling straight cuts and cylindrical holes.
Integrated marking
The plasma power source allows marking with the cutting nozzle, without any conversion or change of process gas.
Probing & finding
With the integrated sensors, any components on the table can be easily located.
Intuitive operation
The user-friendly software requires little process and programming knowledge.
High reproducibility
Precise cuts, minimal tolerances, and straight edges ensure consistently high quality.
Unmanned production
The integrated sensors, process monitoring, and control enable largely autonomous operation, saving personnel costs and relieving your employees.
Plasma cutting with XFLARE
Plasma technology allows processing a variety of materials with high cutting speeds. Air plasma power sources offer lower operating costs compared to lasers. Both individual pieces and larger production quantities can be realized easily and cost-effectively.
1. Plasma generation
An electric arc is generated between an electrode and the workpiece to be cut. Simultaneously, a gas (usually air, oxygen, nitrogen, or argon) is forced through a nozzle at high speed and ionized. This creates a high-temperature plasma jet.
2. Cutting process
The hot plasma melts the metal at the cutting point. The ionized gas blows the molten material out of the cut, resulting in a clean and precise cut edge.
3. Control & Guidance
The XFLARE moves the plasma beam along the workpiece contour at the optimal feed rate. At the same time, the process parameters and the distance are controlled to achieve the best cutting results.

Technology & Equipment
The XFLARE CNC-controlled plasma cutting system is equipped with a wide range of intelligent features to ensure the most efficient and fastest possible operation. Thanks to these innovative technologies, even cylindrical holes and slotted holes can be produced precisely without the need for additional drilling.
Real-Time Process Control
Fully automated process control continuously monitors the process and responds immediately to changes. This ensures precise and reproducible process control.
Preselectable cutting parameters
Adjustable parameters for various materials and sheet thicknesses enable efficient, high-quality machining right from the start.
Pre-calibrated Tools (TCP)
The tools have already been measured and calibrated, so they are ready for immediate use.
Automatic Height Control
The integrated torch height control system, which uses arc voltage, maintains a constant distance between the nozzle and the workpiece, ensuring consistent cuts and extending nozzle life.
Active Angle Correction
Angle correction compensates for the angular errors of the plasma arc by precisely adjusting the torch angle. This produces straight cuts and cylindrical holes.
Nozzle Wear Tracking
Advanced nozzle wear tracking allows operators to respond to wear in a timely manner.
Tool-Free Nozzle Replacement
We enable quick, tool-free nozzle changes. This saves you time and minimizes downtime.
Cutting & Marking Without Any Modifications
In addition to cutting, the plasma power source can also mark using the same cutting nozzle, without any modifications or changes to the process gas.
Probing via Cap or Laser
The cutting head features an integrated sensing system that detects workpieces by means of ohmic contact detection on the torch shield. For non-conductive surfaces such as film or enamel, height detection via a laser distance sensor is available as an option.
Plain-text error messages
Plain-text error messages are displayed via the graphical user interface to enable precise monitoring and diagnostics during the cutting process.
Sectional Exhaust System
The sectional underfloor extraction system automatically adjusts the airflow to the position of the plasma torch, thereby capturing a large portion of the welding fumes as they are generated.
Pull-out drawers
Pull-out drawers make it easy to empty out slag and scrap material and quickly retrieve good parts that have fallen inside, especially during prototype production.
