In this video I cover building a simple DIY down draft plasma cutting table for my Arcdroid CNC plasma cutter, I also cover tips on using the Arcdroid.
I go over a simple air dryer for plasma cutters and how to get the most out of plasma consumables.
Finally I cover the Arcfony Cut53N plasma cutter with plug and play CNC connections. It’s the best value blow back pilot arc start I have ever used.
Here's a video covering the Langmuir Crossfire PRO CNC table For over 3 years.

Damnit Mike you are a damn genius. I have been waiting for someone to post a "real" video on the Arcdroid use and demonstration. Seriously your videos are always top notch. I want one of these so darn bad right now it hurt!!!!

@Mikefestiva Год назад

Right on thanks Jon 😊 I will cover more about this Arcdroid in the near future, I will go over the touch screen and how to draw simple parts and the trace features. This way you and others have a much better idea of what is possible with the simple software and what would be better to draw in a computer program. Take care and have a great weekend 😊

I first came across your channel when looking for bandsaw mill stuff. I've since pretty much watched every video you've put out, regardless of content. For me it's the presenting style and video production that make your channel very watchable for me, that and the great information and no nonsense explanations of what you do. Keep up the great work!

@afmoa Год назад

I would be interested in a video comparing the two. It's funny how you started with the smaller Langmuir table, then went to the big one and now going back to a smaller unit that the Arc Droid is. Of course your projects were much different with each unit. I'm still diggin' the Mini Pinzgauer build.

@Mikefestiva Год назад

Thanks for checking out my new video! Yes I will make the comparison video, seems like many people showed interest in that topic. Haha yes I went from small to bigger then back to small again 😂 I have been so busy with my two kiddos and my main job I find it harder to get as much time in my shop. The Arcdroid is so quick to draw and cut basic parts I just use it a lot more these days the the Crossfire. Take care and have a great weekend 👍

I bought a Crossfire XL with water table, limit switches, THC, laptop stand, and the Razorweld 45 with machine torch. I'm actually hoping to have first fire this evening. I've wanted for one for a while, and after I added some auxiliary hydraulics on my tractor, I decided I didn't like the bracket that came with it, so I'd cut my own :). On the topic of high quality air, google for "compressor aftercooler". Basically, it's taking an automotive transmission cooler and water separator, and then plumbing it between the compressor head and the tank check valve. The advantage to this is it keeps water out of the tank, reducing corrosion. I've got a two water separators, a dessicant stage, and a Motor Guard 60 micron filter at the moment, but I'm going to add the aftercooler as soon as I can start cutting some brackets. FYI: It's your fault I bought the Crossfire :)

@michaelpolimer2128 Год назад

Just before Covid (spring of 2019) we bought a Crossfire basic table and a Miller 625 X-treme, had a terrible time with the software. Fusion 360 was terrible to use in our setting because it's internet based and our connection was very slow. Also the old Mach 3 which isn't dedicated to plasma cutting was less than user friendly. During the 1'st year of Covid our shop was shut down and the machine sat. The 2'nd April of covid (2021) we opened our shop and it was either get the Crossfire going or get rid of it. We threw Fusion away and bought QCAD and Sheetcam, meanwhile Languire came out with their ArcFire software. In about 2 weeks very part time we learned enough software and got everything running. My advice is Fusion is way more program than you need for simple 2D parts, SheetCam works and ArcFire is a game changer. Once you can CNC cut you look at projects completely differently.

@Mikefestiva Год назад

Yes Fusion 360 is way overkill for simple 2D stuff, I definitely have been looking into other programs. 😊👍 I will take a closer look at QCAD and Sheetcam. Thanks for checking out my new video.

@michaelpolimer2128 Год назад

@@Mikefestiva Hi Mike............enjoy your videos.....QCAD is pretty intuitive and all you need for 2D cut drawings, Sheetcam is also 2D and works fine, we loaded both on the laptop that drives the Crossfire table so it's all right there and resident with our table......... we also have copies on home computers so w can design & post process there as well.....works for us.......73 MP

@p.t.anderson1593 Год назад

@@michaelpolimer2128 I'm using F360 for my Crossfire pro, w/ THC, right now and it's way more hassle than I'd prefer, overly complex and they are pretty restrictive with the hobby license. What is post processing like with QCAD, SheetCam and ArcFire? Is it pretty straight forward like F360? Do you still use FireControl from Langmuir Systems? I did a quick look for ArcFire and didn't find it. Where can I find it?

Hi Mike, I'm a huge fan and have learned a lot from watching your channel. Matter of fact I bought the Arcfony from watching your video. I took your advice and wired 220 in my garage. I've also, used the same filter/dryer you have. I could sure use your help hooking up my Arcfony for my first cut. I bought the X2 and hoping to make my first cut by Friday. I have a 60 gal Mega Compressor which should do the trick. My plasma table is almost ready except for the final down draft addition like yours. Getting really close and would be forever grateful to you for some of your knowledge hooking this thing up. Glenn Green from Corpus Christi, Texas

@xt1200z1 5 месяцев назад

Finished building my JDsGarage plasma table about a month ago. Been fighting my little HF 3 in 1 Tig, Stick and Plasma machine with all the CNC EMI hardening stuff. It does cut but cannot plunge as initial torch height is critical for arc start. So I finally pulled the trigger on this Arcfony CUT53N cnc! Should be here today! I had watched this video a few months back but wasn't thinking of a plasma cutter at the time. Found this video again on researching the Arcfony, LOL. Great video as usual! Keep it up.

I just picked up the same Arcfony as well. Really impressive unit for under $400 CDN. Hope to have my DIY table up and running this week!

@Mikefestiva Год назад

Nice! Yes for the price and quality I’m also really happy with it. What I really like about it is it always starts on every cut, I have had blow back pilot arc start plasma cutters sometimes miss a start in the past when cutting out a CNC part with many different Pierce points. This Arcfony hasn’t missed a start yet and I have made hundreds of cuts with it so far. 😊👍 That’s awesome your are building your table!

@hu5116 Год назад

Hi Mike, loved the Vid! Yes, would like to see a comparison on the Langmiur table and the ArcDroid. While at it, might also address which Langmiur table to get. For example, I think you have a larger one but not the Pro? A comparison maybe of the smaller table (4'x4' ?) and the ArcDroid would be particularly interesting since they are both kinda competing in the smaller size part space whereas the advantage of the larger Langmiur tables is obviously that one can do large parts. Another thing to consider is maybe being able to free hand manual plasma torch cutting of the main features of a large part (for example the outer perimeter) and then see about registering the large part to the small Langmiur table or ArcDroid to cut out small registered detail (like a plurality of precisely placed holes or features). I saw the registration trick done on another channel, so he could cut a 4'x8' sheet with a 4'x4' Lamgmiur table. I think most folks would probably be doing smaller parts more often (I kinda think that is what you are getting at with the ArcDroid), but may have need to do larger parts on occasion, so would like the capability to do those larger parts, even if it means fiddling with some gyrations. Thanks for all you do!

@p.t.anderson1593 Год назад

Super interested in a comparison video, especially between the Arcfony and Razorcut. I still have the Crossfire Pro that I got right after seeing the one you got but the Razorcut plasma cutter has been giving me fits. I got one of the early ones that had the flawed circuit board and I took it up to Kent where one of the guys at Jasic did the mod that was supposed to fix it. Unfortunately it still doesn't like to pierce while stationary. As soon as the torch starts to move it makes it through, so I make my lead ins as long as possible and about half of the running feed rate. This only works on stuff that's less than .125" thickness with larger hole diameters. Thank you so much for doing all the work and making videos. I watch them all.

@Mikefestiva Год назад

It definitely sucks when the plasma cutter misses a a start, I have experienced that on occasion with the Titanium 45 and the Hynade. This is probably one miss start out of 50 starts or so. The Arcfony has been really good, it’s only missing a few starts out of hundreds I have made so far. So far I think it’s the most affordable CNC plug and play available on the market. The thing I like more about the Arcfony CUT53N then the Hynade CUT60DN is the Arcfony coming with an adjustable regulator and the Hynade is fixed at one air pressure. The Hynade has a really nice torch lead but I think the Arcfony’s lighter duty torch lead works better for the arcdroid because it’s built lighter and is more flexible for the arcdroid arm to easily move it. I’m sorry you are having so much trouble with the Razor weld plasma. For the cost of the Arcfony I think you would use your CNC table a lot more. Ps what software are you using? I have only used Fusion 360 but have heard a few others mention they use Sheetcam and QCAD. I’m thinking of looking into those programs.

Nice video I just received my Arcfony today and just ordered consumables from there too so they are in stock. I'm just waitining on my Arcdroid to get here. Looking at your video you used the 5 pin connection. This is all new to me and I dont quite understand the wiring so how did you connect yours to the Arcdriod. I see two red wires and 2 black wires???

Hopefully you will do some more fusion 360 tutorial videos

A comparison would be great also a more detailed video on the arc droid

Would love to see the pros and cons of both systems versus cost point.

@mocarp1 Год назад

Would be interested in seeing more about the arcdroid and of course more on the Langmuir

@Mikefestiva Год назад

Cool! I will start on that comparison video soon 😊👍

Great video, but where/how do you get consumables to the IPT-53 torch? I now you have a link to it here, but amazon says it`s unavailable for a very long time. Is there other consumables who will fit, like the IPT-60?

Hi Mike, I'm a new subscriber to you channel.....love your content. Quick question....I just ordered the Arcdroid and the Arfony Cut53 N Pro as well as the exact air drier/filter because of what you shared on your video. My next purchase is an air compressor. I'm a hobbyist in my home shop and would like your opinion on what size air compressor would work best with my set up.

Mike, for your fan, you might have been able to use the fan from a clothes dryer. They move a lot of air, but for an electric dryer, your motor would probably be 240v.

Mike, love the video. I apologize if this has already been answered, can you tell me the tolerance the Arcdroid can hold?

@Mikefestiva 11 месяцев назад

Cool 👍 I definitely will start working on that video! Thanks for checking out my new video 😊

Hi Mike. Can you please share you machine setups? Cut speeds, amps, etc. Just ordered the same machine 😊 Maybe in Arcdroid forum? Im new to plasmacutting and arcdroid.

@curtnesseth6194 8 месяцев назад

I have the same arc fony plasma. How do you hook up the cnc ports in the back? Do I need a relay? What wires between the two red and two black go to the vcc and what ones go to the pmw? My cnc light is on but torch won’t fire

@jasongarland3165 11 месяцев назад

The one thing I'll add as a comment is about that Costco shelving. Those shelves are GREAT and are pretty heavy duty. But if you want to set up a workbench or a CNC router or something on them, bolt the shelf legs down. The shelving is great for storage but may want to wobble or tip on you if you do much work on them.

I would like to see a comparison video.

@genek1341 6 месяцев назад

how is the repeatability? accuracy on the acr droid ?is the cut quality ,dimensional size equal to the crossfire gantry table. when you trace something how accurate is the trace and can you edited the trace to make the part smaller or larger? would like to see a comparision between arc droid and crossfire . on the fence now which one to order. Thanks

@Hustlerhotrod 7 месяцев назад

Do you have any basic cut settings for this setup?

@richardkelleher1711 11 месяцев назад

Please do the comparison video.

@FlawedOffroad 11 месяцев назад
