single torch vs. triple torch

What is the difference between a single torch and a triple torch CNC beam coping machine?

A single torch CNC beam coping machine is a machine that uses only one torch to do all the coping.

When coping a beam, the single torch will start cutting at the web and then move on to the flanges. It moves from the web to each flange in sequence.

The 5-axis torch is able to move in an almost infinite number of directions and positions, allowing the most complex of copes.

The 5-axis torch and will accomplish double miter/bevel cuts on both flange and web - something that multi-torch systems are unable to do.

Multiple torch or triple torch CNC beam coping machines typically have three torches, and each torch is dedicated to a flange or web.

Even though there is less positioning time with the triple torch machine than there is with the single torch machine, the single torch machine can do a lot more cuts than the EXISTING triple torch machines due to the versatility of the 5-axis movement of the cutting head.

In addition, most triple torch machines cost 3-4 times more than our single torch CNC beam coping machine. And the Ocean Liberator can do a LOT more than any 3-head machine!
