Those machines are expensive, he said they paid a million for the one he runs 9 years ago.

We paid 1.4 mil for the first HTX and the auto loader and 60k stock bins and 900k for the second HTX, they inline and use the same loader,stock bins and finish table. Also have a Amada but its a old 98 model.

This was made on the Mazak Space Gear tube laser that we made when i went to Chi town for school last year. Sorry litte out of focus.

Yeah my dads made some really cool stuff like that on his laser, I have a really nice Indy type race car he made, he also made this really cool T-Rex that you built yourself, it was like a wooden model you'd buy where you break off each piece then assemble it.

Yeah my dad said the Trumpf he runs is a 4 KW 3030, he said that your 5040 must be a newer model.  He said that he's never run one with RotoLas because they don't cut pipe, but his also is self loading & runs lights out.

Those machines are expensive, he said they paid a million for the one he runs 9 years ago.

They are much more efficient than they were 9 years ago. We bought ours when we built our new facility in 2008. This machine will put you out about 1.3 mil if you can swing a good deal. Not including shipping or installation. The beds on it will handle sheet/plate to 158" x 79".
Early last year we also had a bulk nitorgen tank with a trifecta system installed out back. We cut and etch all types of metals. We have also cut wood for a couple of countertop/furniture manufacturers.


I have a couple MAZAK's HTX's with auto load and stock bins, but i am wondering if the mazak will out run the trumpf's IPM.?


The 5040 is rated up to around 2000 IPM cutting and almost 12000 IPM positioning.

Here is a short video I shot of our machine. I shot it with my cellphone while we were cutting some 12 ga 316 SS parts for a customer. The customer can be heard in the background. When the machine positioned towards the glass, he almost fell over backwards.  :lol

Flying optics machine traverse rate is faster but cut speeds are pretty much the same. Although i have run into things at 5000 Ipm i would hate to see what happens at 12000 IPM. You do the programming or just operation?

I found a new shotgun I really want, It is a 12 guage, on an AK-47 frame, 25 round mag.  THat would be worth putting a rail system with a lazer and a Tact flashlight on it.

so a shotgun with a 25 round mag.. and you need a "lazer" on it?

Im pretty sure even Ray Charles could hit what he wanted with such a weapon with no need for a laser.


that's like rubbing poison on the tip of a 2000 pound bomb.
