Background
We currently have a decent CNC milling capabilities at PS1, what we don't have is CNC cutting of sheet metal and plate. Adding a CNC plasma cutting table would allow us to utilize our existing plasma cutter for high quality CNC cut sheet and plate metals.
This vote is to purchase the following from procut CNC:
- HD4400R 4'x4' PLASMA READY TABLE - http://www.procutcnc.com/procutcnc.com/drupal/product/hd4400r-4x4-plasma-ready-table
- CNC PART TRACER/ SCANNER - http://www.procutcnc.com/procutcnc.com/drupal/product/cnc-part-tracer-scanner
- Wireless MPG Handwheel for Mach3 Controller - http://www.procutcnc.com/procutcnc.com/drupal/product/wireless-mpg-handwheel-mach3-controller-0
- Water table
This setup includes all of the required components to setup the plasma table including the PC. It also includes capabilities to scan existing parts into DXF files to allow for modification and copying.
Language
Authorize the Board of Directors to spend up to $11,500 on a CNC plasma cutter table and accessories. Also authorize the Board of Directors to start a fundraising campaign to recoup some of the costs of the machine. Authorization expires 6 months after the vote is accepted.
