5x10 Plasma Table Maintenance Tips for Long-Term Performance

Image
When you invest in a powerful tool like the 5x10 Plasma Table , proper maintenance isn’t optional — it’s essential. A well-maintained table ensures clean, precise cuts, minimizes downtime, and extends the machine’s lifespan. At STV®CNC , we believe in building machines that last — and that starts with how you take care of them. 1. Daily Cleaning After Each Use Metal dust, slag, and debris build up quickly during plasma cutting. At the end of each shift or project: Wipe down the cutting area and gantry Vacuum or remove slag from the water tray or downdraft table Ensure there’s no obstruction in the torch path Keeping your 5x10 Plasma Table clean daily helps prevent wear on moving parts and maintains cut quality. 2. Lubricate Moving Components Regularly The gantry, bearings, and lead screws all experience constant motion during operation. Regular lubrication reduces friction and prevents early wear. Use manufacturer-recommended lubricant on linear bearings, gear racks...
