Explore Different Types of CNC Cutting Machines

Gantry systems are engineered for large-scale plate cutting, providing the reach and stability required for oversized and high-volume work. Koike CNC cutting machines are simply better built; designed for dependable performance, engineered for efficiency, and built to last. Each type of cutting machine has its own advantages and use cases that are determined by their cutting method. Explore what makes these plasma/oxy-fuel, waterjet, and fiber laser cutting machine types stand out from one another to find the right machine for your application.

Plasma & Oxy-Fuel Cutting Machines

Plasma and oxy-fuel cutting machines generally serve as a cost-effective entry point into the world of CNC cutting. These machines are ideal for sheet metal fabrication shops, especially those who process thick plates, looking to keep operational costs low. Koike provides a wide variety of plasma and oxy-fuel cutting machines that can be further customized to meet your facility’s exact fabrication needs.

Waterjet Cutting Machines

Waterjet cutting machines can cut through a wide variety of materials, including nonmetals like stone, composites, and textiles. By utilizing pressurized water and abrasives rather than heat to cut, waterjet machines can help operators avoid work hardening and distortion around the edges of cut parts. These gantry waterjet cutting machines are designed for larger parts that require more space than compact, unitized machines can accommodate.

Laser Cutting Machines

Koike fiber laser cutting machines are built for large plate cutting, delivering high-quality parts with exceptional precision, speed, and consistency. Compared to traditional CO₂ lasers, fiber laser systems offer lower operating costs through reduced maintenance and lower power consumption, while providing higher output power (up to 40 kW) for cutting thicker materials. Designed for oversized plate processing, Koike’s gantry-style fiber laser machines combine advanced beam control, fast cutting speeds, and superior edge quality to minimize secondary operations and maximize productivity. Integrated automation capabilities support lights-out operation, allowing continuous production with minimal operator involvement, reducing labor costs while increasing throughput and machine utilization.
