Torchmate 2x2 Prototyping System
Every once in a while a product is introduced that changes the world. The purpose of the
Torchmate 2x2 CNC Prototyping System is to do just that. The Torchmate 2x2 is
designed to change the way you make parts in your home, school or small fabrication
shop. It is designed to be versatile, mobile and easy to use. It is designed to bring CNC
Plasma Cutting, CNC Routing, CNC Drilling, CNC Milling and CNC Engraving to you
in one tight little package. Everyone knew that the time would eventually come when
shops everywhere could look at CNC Technology and Robotics as another tool, just like
a Mill, Lathe, Router, Bandsaw or Drill Press rather than some daunting thing that is out
of their reach. That time has come.
Every Torchmate 2x2 CNC Prototyping System is designed as a multi-use platform to
which you may mount secondary tooling for which you would like robotic control and
repeatablility. The Torchmate Driver software is included with every system, into which
you will import your file to be cut. A generic mounting plate is included to accept your
chosen tool holder, be it for plasma cutting, routing, drilling, engraving or milling.
Included: Routing package and hand torch
