Not a clue how old it is but as the DeVILBISS seems to be fine I will just use that.If your Olympian set is current enough then the filter elements for it aren't badly priced. We use them for all instrumentation as well as SBA equipment.
So far I am very happy with it but not done a huge amount of cutting yet. If I had got it up and running the few weeks previous I would have cut a fair amount but I had to do that with the TecArc.
I should be doing some 10mm Aluminium in the next few days, maybe next week, so I will see how it performs with that.
I have done small bits and pieces with it in the last week, yesterday I cut some small bits of 3mm stainless up and it was nice and the good thing is the nozzles seem to be lasting better or at least so far they have. Whether that is because I am now using the 80-90 amp ones instead of the 40-70 I got with it or it could be the air dryer or even a combination of both.
Yes, well the CNC connections (Start/Stop, Arc Ready and divided voltage) are. I specified I wanted a CNC torch, I think normally it is supplied with a hand torch.So it comes with the full cnc kit , divider and 180° torch ?

I was around about £1200 + VAT with extra consumables and the machine torch instead of the hand torch.Can i ask how much the complete kit has cost ?
I have done 20mm Alu in the past but piercing on the TecArc was 16mm max so it had to be an edge start, the Jasic is capable of 20mm pierce.That looks good. I haven’t tried anything thicker than 3mm aluminium.
4" x 4" x 1/4" wall 6082 with about a 3m span.That’s quite a solid gantry you’ve got there isn’t it
I would love to shove the Trafimet torch on to see how it would perform on the Jasic but warranty is stopping me even though it works in exactly the same manner ie a blowback ignition.In theory drier air would make more of a difference on the aluminium but I think that must be a smoother arc from the new machine.
