This SAF Plasmatome 5 C is a used plasma cutter — also referred to as a plasma cutting machine — designed for precision thermal cutting of metal plate and sheet. SAF is a well-established French manufacturer with a long history in welding and cutting technology, supplying equipment to fabrication, metalworking, and industrial manufacturing sectors.
This is a portal-type (gantry) machine, meaning the cutting head travels across a fixed table on an overhead bridge structure. The table measures 4,000 × 3,000 mm, and the cross travel on the Y-axis extends to 5,000 mm, providing generous working area for large plate work. The rail width is 3,900 mm and the rail length is 5,700 mm. The machine features double traction drive, which distributes the drive force across both sides of the gantry for stable, accurate motion.
The plasma source is a Nertajet HP120A, a high-performance plasma generator. Cutting capacity varies by process gas: with argon-hydrogen the machine cuts up to 40 mm; with oxygen up to 20 mm; and with water vortex up to 20 mm. The seller's notes also indicate cutting capacity of 40 mm with argon/helium and 25 mm with oxygen under a separate specification entry, reflecting the range achievable depending on process configuration.
Machine control and read-out is handled by a Burny 5 CNC controller, a recognised system widely used in profile and plate cutting applications. The machine is located in Belgium and is offered in used condition.
