Here we go through the concept design of Open Source Ecology's CNC Torch table, which includes auto ignition, gas control, and auto height sensing.

This is a modular, scalable design - built on 5'x5' size modules extensible readily to 5'x10' and longer torch tables.

This is based on a fully open source toolchain: Marlin firmware and RAMPS 1.4 hardware, Universal Axis, Universal Controller, and FlatCAM or Inkscape for toolpath generation. Lulzbot Cura may be used for toolpath visualization and pre/post workflow processing. See https://wiki.opensourceecology.org/wiki/CNC_Torch_Table_v19.10

Join us for 9 days of immersion training where you can learn how to design and build industrial machines of all types, along with CNC machines to help you in the process. We are looking to expand this program to many locations. If you are interested in running workshops of this nature in your location, you can begin here and begin your deep dive into public-interest technology that matters.

Presented by Dr. Marcin Jakubowski, William Neal, and Dr. Catarina Mota.
