All in ONE - Thermal Processing System

  • Plasma and Oxyfuel cutting system for 48" (1.2m) wide material

    This is the only system capable of processing copes, cut-to-length, AISC approved bolt-hole connections, marking, scribing, and fully cutting shapes up to 48" (1.2m) wide and capacities up to 1,000lb per foot. The Controlled Automation Revolution machine comes standard with laser scanning to provide more than 60% faster processing than probing machines. For even greater productivity, the Revolution also has an automatic tool-changer to switch from high definition plasma to an oxy-fuel torch station to process thicker material beyond plasma capabilities. This is the ONE machine manufactured for steel and metal fabricators to process all of your structural shapes.

  • Why a Controlled Automation robot?

    The Revolution thermal processing machine is very unique in its utilization of a cartesian style design instead of a generic robot. There are several benefits to thermally cutting structural shapes with our system. The Revolution can process structural shapes faster and in fewer movements, sometimes processing in as little as two movements compared to other generic robots that have to move 7 axes' of motion for the same processing. This simplified robotic motion reduces cable wear and increases the longevity of the overall machine. The incorporation of laser scanning also improves overall processing time in comparison with other designs requiring continuous probing of material when processing. While the speeds are much greater than other machines, the capabilities are also greater with the incorporation of an automatic tool-changer to provide additional options such as oxy-fuel cutting for heavy members and difficult shapes such as "rat holes".

  • Process all sides of material

    The Revolution is able to reach all 4 sides of material automatically for cutting, marking and scribing without operator intervention. This process allows for convenient and easy tube cutting as well as marking on the top and bottom web of structural beams and channels.

  • Simplified mechanics, operation and maintenance

    Controlled Automation utilizes off-the-shelf parts for easy maintenance and less expense on component replacements. Self calibration, web-cam service connectivity, free phone support, and remote operation are all standard features for easy maintenance and service of the machine. We fully service the entirety of the machine from the software, controls and mechanical build of the machine. Controlled Automation is the only coper manufacturer in the world to design the software, build the entire robot, controller, and machine!

  • Marking to perform layouts - not just cope!

    Using our own SICAM 3D software, the Revolution can process and nest (mult) all coped parts, hole processing, cut-to-length AND mark for layout of welded operations. Using the HPRXD series torch, the Revolution utilizes Argon scribing for an improved scribing method as compared to stand-alone marking systems with ArcWriters. This process produces cleaner marks and better accuracy of layout through the use of laser scanning and a length measuring probe.
