The Voortman V304 is a used plasma cutting machine — sometimes referred to as a CNC plasma cutter — designed for the precision thermal cutting of steel plate and structural material across fabrication and steel processing applications. Voortman is a well-established Dutch manufacturer of steel processing machinery, supplying plate processing, profile cutting, and sawing equipment to the steel construction, shipbuilding, and general fabrication industries.
Built in 2015 and currently located in Germany, this machine is equipped with both a plasma 3D bevel unit and an oxy-fuel cutting unit, making it capable of handling a wide range of cutting tasks on a single machine. The plasma bevel head achieves a bevel angle of ±50° depending on torch type, with a positioning accuracy of ±0.5°, and supports material thicknesses from 6 mm up to 50 mm. On the z-axis, both the plasma bevel unit and the Voortman height control system share a maximum acceleration of 2,000 mm/s² and a maximum speed of 365 mm/s. Overall machine acceleration is rated at 1,000 mm/s², and power per servo drive is 26 kW.
The plasma system delivers a maximum pierce capacity of 40 mm, with dross-free cutting up to 35 mm. Plasma gas for mild steel cutting is O₂ (99.9% pure, clean, dry, and oil-free), while marking operations use argon gas or O₂/air of the same purity standard. Shield gas is included, and an automatic gas console is fitted. Marking lines are supported using the same consumables as cutting. Cutting speed data for mild steel gives a useful picture of throughput across thicknesses: approximately 3,700 mm/min at 90 A for 6 mm plate, 3,600 mm/min at 200 A for 12 mm, 1,600 mm/min at 300 A for 25 mm, 720 mm/min at 300 A for 40 mm, 400 mm/min at 300 A for 50 mm, and 100 mm/min at 300 A for 80 mm.
The oxy-fuel cutting unit is a nozzle-mix type fitted with a magnetic valve and backfire protection on the gas supply, along with automatic external ignition. Maximum cutting thickness for a single piece or two pieces is 200 mm, reducing to 125 mm for three pieces, 100 mm for four, 75 mm for five, and 60 mm for six pieces. The standard cutting gas is acetylene, with propane available as an option, and O₂ serves as the cutting gas.
Working height is 705 mm (±20 mm), and the machine is designed to operate within an ambient temperature range of 0–35°C at a maximum of 95% relative humidity. Grounding must be established within 6 m of the machine, with AC power, PE, and service grounds compliant with applicable local and national codes. A voltage stabiliser is not included. The machine is reported to still be under power.
