Starter Questions

Getting Started

How easy is it to set up the ArcDroid™?

The Arcdroid works out of the box, no assembly required. Setup and calibration takes less than 15 minutes.

Do I need to already have a Plasma Cutter?

Yes you will need to provide your own Plasma cutter. The ArcDroid does not come bundled with a plasma machine, you will need to run a simple calibration routine on initial setup to ensure it is matched to your machine and plasma torch.

Do I need any additional software to operate the ArcDroid™?

No additional software is needed. The ArcDroid™ comes with its own easy-to-install and use software, ensuring you can start cutting right away. Regular updates are provided to keep your system running smoothly.

What materials can I cut with the ArcDroid™?

The ArcDroid™ can cut a wide range of conductive metals, including steel, aluminum, stainless steel, and brass. It's perfect for various projects, from metal art to industrial parts.

What plasma cutters are compatible?

Most plasma cutters can be used with ArcDroid™ as long as a two-wire switch can be provided for turning the torch on and off. We cannot guarantee compatibility with High Frequency start plasma cutters. THC requires a divide-by-20 or divide-by-15 CNC voltage output. Check your machine on the Will It Work? page.

Trace It. Cut It.

If you can trace a line, you can cut steel.
