The Modular Drive Programmable Shape Machine is an easy-to-use 2-axis machine which can be programmed to run any contour or pattern for both welding and cutting applications. A handheld terminal is used to program the required shape and operation sequence. Other functions besides moves can be programmed, such as repeats, starts, stops, delays, and rapid traverse. Twenty programs can be stored in the machine’s memory at any one time. An optional computer software program is available. With this program, you can select pre-programmed shapes or create your own custom shapes, and store and edit any number of them on disk. Selected shapes can then be downloaded to the machine as needed.
