We are thinking of getting some plate cutting equipment for aluminium and stainless steel. Thickness up to 20mm, size at least 4x8 feet (1200x2400mm) but preferably 5x10 feet (1500x3000mm). It will be used for small series production and prototype work.
Plasma seems to be the best alternative? How does it compare to say water jet cutting as far as speed, precision and running costs go?
What are good models/ brands and do anyone have a ballpark cost for a system? Any input appreciated!
