PASSTHROUGH PLATE PROCESSING MACHINES

PASS-THROUGH VS. MOVING GANTRY PLASMA PLATE PROCESSING

Choosing the right machine style is crucial for optimizing your fabrication workflow. The two primary designs are the pass-through system and the moving gantry system. Voortman Steel Machinery offers specialized machines in both categories, such as the V320/V325 (pass-through) and the V303/V304/V310 (moving gantry), each optimized for different production demands. Your choice dictates workflow, material handling requirements, and overall throughput. Understanding the differences is essential to maximize your part production and minimize lead times.

PASS-THROUGH MACHINE

VOORTMAN V320, V325

• Non-stop, highly automated production. Continuous material flow, material is pulled through the machine.
• Best for high-volume production of small to medium parts. Unmanned operation is maximized by automatic unloading.
• Unmanned Running is the key advantage with automatic part removal conveyor. Significantly reduces manual intervention and crane time.
• Minimal material handling required; automatic unloading of finished parts.

MOVING GANTRY MACHINES

VOORTMAN V303, V304, V310

• Flexible work zone and workflow. Plate remains stationary; gantry moves along the plate.
• Best for complex, large parts or multi-process jobs (e.g., drilling, beveling) where the plate must be firmly fixed.
• Processing flexibility as a key advantage. Optimal for single-plate processing and easily integrating multiple heavy tools like drills and advanced bevel units.
• Requires crane for loading and unloading the entire plate.

SELECT YOUR IDEAL PLATE CUTTING SOLUTION

Select a pass-through plate processing machine like the V320/V325 for non-stop, unmanned cutting and drilling with automatic part removal. Choose a moving gantry plate cutting machine like the V304/V310 for maximum processing flexibility, heavy-duty drilling, and handling very large or extra-thick plates.

HYPERTHERM XPR SERIES: NEXT-GENERATION X-DEFINITION PLASMA

The Hypertherm XPR plasma power source is the industry standard for achieving superior cut quality, reduced operating costs, and enhanced speed in plate fabrication. Voortman CNC plate processing machines, including the V303, V304, V310, V320, and V325, are engineered to maximize the performance of the Hypertherm XPR series.

X-DEFINITION CUT QUALITY

The XPR series delivers a new level of cut precision on mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum, surpassing previous high-definition plasma. This results in smoother surface finishes, sharper edges, and improved hole cylindricity, often meeting or exceeding ISO range 2 and 3 standards.

LOWER OPERATING COSTS

Advanced arc response technology and features like PowerPierce ensure dramatic improvements in consumable life, sometimes triple that of previous systems. This reduces downtime and slashes your overall cost per part by up to 50% in many applications.

ENHANED PRODUCTIVITY

The XPR system, including models like the XPR300, provides faster cutting speeds and thicker piercing capabilities, allowing your machine to handle heavier plates with higher efficiency. Features like True Hole technology guarantees excellent bolt-ready hole quality automatically.

PLASMA VS. LASER CUTTING: CHOOSING THE RIGHT TECHNOLOGY

The choice between plasma and fiber laser hinges on material thickness, required precision, and budget. While plasma remains the workhorse for heavy steel, advanced fiber laser systems, such as the Voortman V342 (entry-level) and V353 (XXL heavy-duty), have significantly expanded laser capability for thick plate and bevel cutting.
