We are designing a Oxyfuel and Plasma Cutter called CUTTY SPARK 2800/1400mm controlled by LinuxCNC.
Here is the dump of our present work.

The Motenc Lite Testpanel.
We used the Motenc Lite PCI Card with two 7535 IO Boards
and one 7525 Encoder DAC Board.
This Testpanel is meant to test the Motenc Card Configuration.

Encoder losing Pulses
While testing the Z & X Joint we experienced losing pulses.
After some extensive measures in reducing EMF, we decided:
-to leave quadrature encoders and install differential encoders.
-to reduce the PPS from 2000 to 1000 since 20kHz became critical in our setup.

Plasma Cutter Probe for Sheetcam
Sheetcam uses the LinuxCNC feature of Probing by G38.
Based on the Renishaw Patent we developed a Probe for our Plasma Cutter

Some Comments about the Pricing:
For your imformation, we recommend the quantity for the other consumables, and the price as below:
electrodes and nozzle:5 pces-1.2mm, 10 pces-1.6mm and 5 pces-1.8mm: 20 pcs each: 2*20=40USD
shields 5 pcs: 3.8*5=19USD
small cap 2 pcs: 3.8*2=7.6USD
big cap 2 pcs: 5.5*2=11USD Because shield, small cap and big cap are not often damaged.
The total price is 40+19+7.6+11=77.6USD.

we could offer the torch with/without cable. Do you need the torch?
If you need this torch, what model do you need?
The price as below:
100A torch without cable: 80USD. 100A torch with 7m cable: 129USD
