Revolutionary New Controller Design
Decades of experience and dedication went into designing a new controller that will break the mold of traditional steel processing by allowing for more possibilites than ever before. Our controller offers multi-torch cutting, drilling, and 5-axis bevel cutting with the capability of expanding to even more processes. With an interactive 3D interface that's uniquely designed for each specific machine, you can view machine progress and diagnostics in real-time.
Next-Gen Software
The InSight Controller comes equipped with our powerful Steel Solutions™ nesting software and our advanced machine controller software, featuring a plethora of nesting options, real-time 3D machine interface, full CAD/CAM editing package, and much more!
Steel SolutionsAdvanced Machine Software
Full 3D Environment
Three dimensional recreation in real time of machine, it's operations, and nest being cut.
Advanced Laser Mapping
With the accuracy of our measuring laser, complex 5-axis bevel cuts are easily achieved, along with the ability to process and cut structural material.
Jump to Part Processing
With the ability to skip parts, mark parts as complete, and jump to specific parts in the nest, operators have complete control over cut orders, in order to meet certain production requirements on the fly.
Temporary Marking Solutions
If you are in search of a way to speed up production, lower labor cost while improving worker safety, and efficiently keep track of part numbers, job numbers, etc. whether you need a single-dot or 16-dot, our systems can handle the most complex of your plate marking needs.

Permanent Marking Solutions
When an economic and efficient permanent marking solution is desired that can even work with hardened steel and is still visible after galvinization processes, the Dot Peen system could be the answer you are looking for.
Dot Peen Marker
Reliable, Economic, & Efficient
With the use of only one consumable(Stylus) and without the need for other materials such as used in ink markers, the dot peen marker is an excellent economic choice for your marking needs. Capable of marking part numbers, heat numbers, etc in a matter of seconds.
Full 360° Marking Capabilities
Capable of marking at angles from 0° to 360°, solving problems with difficult and unconvential diagonal marking solutions.
Adjustable Force, Speed, & 'Quality'
With fully user adjustable paramaters for force, speed, and quality, the Dot Peen marking systems allows you to streamline your workflow for different materials and sizes of characters based on the job at hand.
5-Axis Torch Beveling
Our compact 5-axis plate beveling unit gives the plasma torch a full 360 degree range of motion. When designing this system, our goal was to build an industrial quality bevel-head that would expand beyond the capabilites that are typically offered on a plate cutting machine.
Robust Bevel Lifter
Designed for the high-speed and precise movements that are required for beveling applications, our robust bevel lifter takes height control to another level. This lifter is built to handle the tough demands of production bevel cutting.
- Bearing design and preload for beveling application
- Gravity compensation pnematic counterbalance
- High speed to get that torch to the next orientation
Crash Detection System
One of the unique features of this revolutionary design, the entire assembly is protected by a magnetic-mounted crash detection system.
This system protects both your valuable equipment and people operating the machinery.
Dual-Bevel Capabilities
Unlock the potential to double manufacturing throughput with dual-plasma torch capabilities. With the ability to incorporate multiple beveling torches, you can push your to the next level.
Oxy-Fuel Compatibility
Introducing our oxy torch plate beveling system! This system uses an interchangle torch design with an adapter for the bevel unit.
- Easily Cut Thicknesses Well Beyond Conventional Plasma
- Wide Variety of Bevel Cuts: Simple to Very Complex
- X-Bevel, Top-Y Bevel, K-Bevel, and Many More...
- Excellent Cut Quality
Drilling Options
Our new drill system line-up includes 2hp, 10hp, and 20hp units. Our extremely versatile drills process high quality parts by utilizing carbide drilling, helical milling, and rigid tapping abilities.
Our New Drill Line-Up
Our new drill system line-up includes 2hp, 10hp, and 20hp units. Our extremely versitile drills process high quality parts by utilizing carbide drilling, helical milling, and rigid tapping abilities.
Carbide Drilling
Precision carbide drilling gives you accurate holes even for the lowest tolerances. Our 10hp unit drills up to 1-1/2" diameters with proper tooling.
Helical Milling
Process accurate slot and counterbore operations with consistent results every time using the helical milling feature.
Rigid Tapping
Rigid tapping synchronizes feed and rotation to give you smooth bolt-ready holes with clean threads from start to finish.
Angle Cutting
With precision laser scanning to establish a datum, you can be sure that repeated cuts are accurate. From straight cutting, beveled cutting, slots & notches, miters, coping, etc, all your angle cutting needs are covered with our system.
Pipe & Dome Capabilities
With advanced laser mapping, sophisticated motion control, and multi-axis beveling, get ready to push beyond what was previously possible in the realm of pipe processing. With our system, you can easily achieve beveled holes, miter end cuts, saddle cuts, lateral nozzle cuts, and more!

Slide-Out Components
The slide out panel, which is unique to our console, simplifies any repairs or upgrades that may need to be done on the controller. If necessary, the entire panel can be quickly swapped out to easily handle upgrades in the future.
The aluminum monitor support also serves as a heat sink. Cooling fans in the controller circulate air through the tube and radiate heat out of the computer chamber.
We offer single and dual monitor controller configurations that include a variety of screens available which range from 20" to 27" across.
