Root Twister TFPV Bevel Cutter Torch Root Twister TFPV Series Bevel Cutters

The Root Twister TFPV Series cutting machines feature the Twister Fine Plasma Torch with Bevel Cutting Head. Using the bevel cutting head, one or two pass cutting can be used to produce beveled edges for welding. A CCD Camera mounted above the torch is used to compensate for piece movement after the first cut. This produces very accuate welding grooves.

Twister Fine Plasma
Komatsu's Twister Fine Plasma products represent the latest technology in plasma cutting of metals that started with the first line of Fine Plasma cutting machines in 1989. In the 1990's through today the Komatsu Fine Plasma technology has been the backbone of the Rasor Series of Fine Plasma Cutting Machines recognized for the high quality precision cutting and outstanding service and support. The Twister Series continues this tradition, adding more power and patented technology enhancements that produce superior cut surface finishes to laser at a fraction of the initial cost, production time, and production cost. The Twister Series is available. Expand your production capacity and start saving now!
TFP3051 5x10 30 kW TFP3051 30 kW 5 x 10 ft.
The TFP3051 features a 5 ft. by 10 ft. cutting surface and the Twister 30 kW (150 Amp) Fine Plasma torch. It will cut Mild Steel up to 1" thick, Aluminum up to 5/8", and Stainless Steel up to 3/4". It includes the QuickSilver process that produces superior cutting speeds and edge quality when cutting Stainless Steel. Cutting speeds are improved and dross is reduced due to the high power plasma unit and high speed Twister gas. Pierce times are reduced due to incorporating automatic gas change during the touch sensor cycle. Cut quality is improved by control of main gas flow and arc mode based on hole size. Spraying anti-spatter directly through the torch improves hole cut quality and consumables life. The push-pull zoned exhaust system greatly reduces fumes while cutting. A mechanical spatter splash shield is activated during piercing.
TFPL Series 30 and 60 kW, 8 or 10 ft. by 20 or 40 ft.
TFPL6082 8x20 60 kW The TFPL Series features larger table sizes, and all of the cutting technology enhancements described above with the TFP3051. Tables are available in 8 or 10 ft. widths and 20 or 40 ft. lengths. Choose either the 30 kW (150 Amp) or 60 kW (300 Amp) Twister Fine Plasma Unit and Torch. The 60 kW Fine Plasma includes the cutting capabilities of the 30 kW, but extends the maximum cutting capacity for Mild Steel to 1.5" by using the higher plasma power unit and larger nozzle sizes. A light curtain and tape emergency stop are included for safety. Ultra-solid carriage, and linear guides achieve high quality, precision cutting.
