For our clients with plasma cutting machines, certain third-party stores carry THC Z-axis torch lifters that are driven by a DC motor (like the one pictured below):

Such a device is a popular choice with some of our clients, as it allows for an affordable THC solution without sacrificing too much in the way of accuracy.

The myCNC team is ready to provide a driver board for connecting the torch lifter to the ET7, as well as the additional initial positioning procedures and a modified THC process to work with such a lifter.

For more information on the driver board as well as the modified PLC commands, please reach out to the myCNC team via our Contact Us page.
