|---|---|
| Torch assemblies | 2 independent, each on its own axis |
| Productivity | Up to 10x faster than manual layout |
| Throughput | Up to 150 profiles per shift |
| Labor equivalence | Work of approx. 6 layout technicians |
| Surface detection | Mechanical roller probe, continuous |
| Measurement | Roller Feed Measurement system |
| Control | Peddinghaus CNC control with Siemens electronics |
| Software | Raptor 3D CAD/CAM |
| Markable surfaces | Rust, scale and shot-blasted steel |
Description
The PeddiWriter automates the layout and fit-up marking that fabrication shops traditionally perform by hand. Two fully independent plasma torch assemblies, each on its own axis, let the machine write unique characters on two surfaces at the same time and reach speeds far beyond carbide scribing. A mechanical roller probe continuously tracks the material surface so the marking distance stays constant without repeated probing sequences, while the Roller Feed Measurement system holds positional accuracy despite deviations in the stock. Because the marks are produced by plasma arc, they stay clearly legible on rusty, scaled or shot-blasted steel and reliably designate where cutting and welding must occur. Siemens drive electronics, the Peddinghaus CNC control and Raptor 3D CAD/CAM programming let a single machine replace the layout work of several technicians.
Use Cases and Best Fit
PeddiWriter layout marking machine is a strong fit for teams evaluating Peddinghaus machines and looking for a practical choice with clear technical positioning and straightforward production integration.
- Useful for buyers comparing machines in the Peddinghaus segment before moving into quote and specification review.
- Best fit for technical and commercial teams that want a faster path from machine research to validated project discussion.
