A Cutting System That Fits Where Others Won't

You've got a workshop where every square foot has a job. Or you're moving between sites and need a cutting system that travels without taking over the truck bed. This compact CNC portable cutter solves the space problem while still handling real production work. It's a numerically controlled cutting system that uses oxy-fuel or plasma to cut steel plate, but the whole package fits into a footprint about the size of a pallet. Running on 220V single-phase power, it handles mild steel up to 100mm with oxy-fuel, or up to 25mm with plasma, giving you CNC precision without the space demands of a stationary gantry.

The Space-Saving Design Philosophy

Most portable cutters are still bulky. The manufacturers take a stationary design, bolt some casters on it, and call it portable. We started with portability as the primary requirement and built everything else around that.

The gantry frame is welded steel, but we kept the cross-section optimized for rigidity without excess weight. The rail system is shorter than typical – just enough travel to handle most plate sizes you'll encounter in mobile work. The control box mounts directly to the gantry, eliminating a separate cabinet that takes up floor space.

The trade-off is capacity. You're not cutting 4x8 sheets on this machine – the travel is limited to what fits on the rail system. But the compact size means you can cut plates that other portable systems can't reach because they're too big to fit through a standard doorway. We've had customers set this machine up in shipping containers, on construction floors, and in maintenance bays with low overhead clearance.

The Rails and Why We Made Them Shorter

This comes down to an engineering decision. Longer rails mean more cutting capacity but also more weight, more shipping volume, and more setup complexity. We looked at what our customers actually cut on portable systems and found that 80% of their work fits within a 1.5-meter cutting length.

The rail system uses hardened steel guides, same as our larger machines. The bearing carriages are pre-loaded to eliminate play. The rack is cut from solid steel, not formed. The shorter length means we can use heavier cross-section rails without making the machine too heavy to handle.

What you get is a machine that's easy to move, easy to set up, and accurate where it needs to be. What you give up is the ability to cut full sheets in one pass. For most portable applications, that's a reasonable trade.

Membership Plans

Choose the plan that suits you best.

Mild steel – The machine's primary target. Oxy-fuel up to 100mm for structural work and thick plate. Plasma up to 25mm for faster cutting on thinner material. The plasma option on this compact unit uses a 65-amp power source, which is sufficient for most field fabrication.

Stainless steel – Plasma only, up to 20mm. The compact frame handles the weight and motion requirements, and the plasma torch produces clean edges.

Aluminum – Plasma cutting up to 20mm. The reflective properties of aluminum don't affect plasma like they do laser, so it's a straightforward application.

Cast iron – Oxy-fuel works well on cast iron, though the cut quality is slightly rougher than rolled steel. The preheat needs to be longer to bring the material to ignition temperature.

Product Features

Compact welded frame – Designed specifically for portability, the frame is rigid enough for accurate cutting but small enough to fit through standard doorways.

High precision positioning – The servo-driven rack-and-pinion system delivers ±0.2mm accuracy through the full travel range.

Low power requirement – Runs on 220V single-phase, no three-phase needed. The plasma power source is also designed for single-phase input.

Dual cutting method – The torch mount accepts both oxy-fuel and plasma torches, giving you flexibility for different materials.

Tablet-based control – The 7-inch touchscreen mounts on the gantry, keeping controls accessible at the cutting position.

Quick setup – Half-day installation with standard tools. The compact design means less assembly time.

Small footprint – The machine stores in about the same space as a large toolbox.

Continuous operation – Runs full shifts without derating. Gas supply and consumables are the only limitations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the main benefit of the compact design compared to standard portable cutters?

The compact size means the machine fits in spaces where larger units won't – through standard doorways, in shipping containers, on construction floors with limited clearances. It also ships in a single crate and stores in a smaller footprint, making it practical for job-site use and shops with tight floor space.

Can the machine handle full 4x8 sheets?

No. The rail system is designed for smaller workpieces – typical applications are individual plates, beams, and structural sections. The travel length is sized to handle the majority of portable cutting jobs without the extra weight and bulk of a full-sheet system.

What power source options are available for plasma cutting?

We offer a 65-amp single-phase plasma power source. This is sufficient for cutting steel, stainless, and aluminum up to 25mm thick. The single-phase input eliminates the need for three-phase power, which is a key consideration for job sites and smaller workshops.

How does the control software work on the tablet?

The tablet runs a full-featured CAM program that reads DXF files, SVG files, and standard G-code. It includes a shape library and path optimization tools. The interface is touch-friendly and designed for the tablet form factor. You can import designs, preview toolpaths, and run the machine from the tablet.

What warranty and spare parts availability is there?

The complete machine has a 1-year warranty covering manufacturing defects. Consumables – nozzles, electrodes, hoses – are covered only for initial supply. We stock spare parts at our main facility and regional distribution points. Express shipping options are available for urgent repairs. Our engineers provide remote video support for troubleshooting.
