Plasma cutter on shapeoko xxl

Can I install a plasma cutter on the shapeoko xxl

Possibly. It will void the warranty and is not supported.

A dedicated unit purpose-designed for this would be the better option.

If you think EMI is hard with the current system, buckle up before adding a plasma cutter! The newer models can be a lot cleaner (even the mid-market cutters), but older and cheaper hardware can wreak havoc.

You’ll need a totally different bed setup too. I’d recommend checking out Langmuir Systems. For your money you’d get a dedicated machine larger than the XXL (sans the cutter and air compressor).
