CNC Water Jet Retrofit Control

Centroid offers 3 different retrofit control packages for CNC water jet control upgrades. Purchasing from Machines in Motion Inc. means: 

1. You'll receive Centroid's full "professional level" control software, not some down graded copy. 
2. M-400 & M-39 cnc water jet control systems purchased from Machines in Motion Inc. are quoted with the same size servo motors. (we do not mislead you)
3. Machines in Motion Inc. offers our customers the choice of professional retrofit control integration or customer installation with full technical support, only a phone call away.
4. All components provided and installed by Machines in Motion Inc. include a 12 month warranty.
5. All available cnc water jet retrofit control options are presented to you with our first quote. Machines in Motion Inc. has a strict "no surprises" pricing policy. 
6. Free control use training is included with every professional installation. We want your business, up to speed, A.S.A.P.
7. Machines in Motion Inc. is focused on providing for the professional "money making" machine shop whether in your garage or huge factory. As such, we do not offer stepper motor "hobby" type cnc water jet retrofit control systems.
8. Machines in Motion Inc. can upgrade most any machine tool with today's PC based cnc water jet control, from lighter duty cnc water jet cutters, to very large, high speed, production Water Jet machines.
9. Mechanical upgrades such as programmable positioning for the Z axis, and custom M-codes for machine specific functions are all available.

Centroid water jet controls handle all machine sizes.

Photos displayed on this website are representative of the product being referenced. The cnc retrofit control system we quote for your specific water jet cutter may include servo motors that are larger or smaller than what is displayed in our product photos. It is our goal to provide you with a properly sized and engineered cnc retrofit control system. Machines in Motion Inc. can easily supply servo motors from less than 500 watts to over 5 Kw.

Typical pricing for a cnc water jet retrofit control

For this example we have chosen a 2 axis cnc water jet, with 2 servo motors on the Y axis.

1. M-400 control system includes 3 servo motors, encoders, cabling, electrical enclosure, 3 servo drivers, PLC, CNC computer, CNC software, Conversational programming software, Professional CNC console with mounting hardware, color LCD monitor, push button jog panel, and computer keyboard. This system includes our optional rollaround floor stand. Most water jet cutters do not have a good mounting location for the electrical enclosure so we provide this solution. The servo motors will bolt onto your current cnc water jet with ease. You can also expect the highest level of reliability from Centroid's M-400 or M-39 factory built cnc water jet retrofit control package.

M-400 base price is $10,960.00 (2010)
Typical price with commonly purchased features is $11,904.00

2.  Our M-39 cnc water jet retrofit control is $1,200 less than the same size M-400 cnc water jet control. With an M-39, the customer will supply his own LCD display and computer keyboard. We still include the CNC computer and software with the model M-39. Machines in Motion includes the push button jog panel with every M-39 water jet control system.

Professional cnc water jet control installation includes machine testing & adjustments for best performance plus control use training to get you started quickly. as low as $2,590.00.

Travel related expenses may be additional.

Component level CNC water jet control kit

3. Machines in Motion Inc. offers low priced cnc water jet control kits. It's difficult to compare these unwired parts with the completely wired M-400 or M-39 water jet control systems. More knowledge is required to wire up your own cnc controller. Expect longer machine down time when choosing this path to upgrade of your cnc water jet. With our component level, cnc water jet control kit, it is possible to retain some of your machine's old components, further reducing the costs.

Kit prices start as low as $1,995.00 when you provide the computer, servo motors, servo power supply, encoders, and cabling.

On occasion, it may simplify the upgrade project for us to install a component level kit. When this has value for the customer we will make that recommendation.
