TMC4500 DB

Features

The TMC4500 DB is a heavy-duty dual box-beam constructed gantry cutting machine, built to perform in your rigorous production environments. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) design methods assure that your TMC is up to the task of cutting with multiple plasma and oxy-fuel torches. With many options available, your TMC is customized to fit your cutting needs to improve your shop’s productivity. Torch options include vertical torches, Triple Torch Oxy-fuel Bevel Units, and plasma beveling with the unique compound Skew Rotator. The TMC4500 DB utilizes precision plasma, oxy-fuel, and drilling up to 4” diameter holes plus a wide variety of marking techniques. Add an additional Pipe and Tube cutting package for round pipe beveling. This durable performer has proven its dependability in the demanding surroundings of shipyards, service centers, contract shops, and OEM manufacturers.

Why is the dual beam design beneficial? The dual beam design allows for the placement of process tools on both beams. In applications requiring a large variety of tools, the cross axis beams grows in width to accommodate the coverage of each process. The dual beam design allows for a narrower footprint by utilizing both front and rear beams necessary to fit within limited work spaces.

Additionally, the dual beam design is a strong enough to support Messer’s 65HP drill with a 24 tool changer, capable of drilling four inch diameters holes. The TMC4500 DB can support all of Messer’s process tools including precision bevel and straight plasma, laser, oxyfuel cutting, marking, grinding, and drilling up to 4″ diameter holes, pipe and tube cutting, and so much more.
