Ordering a new plasma table - Arc Light

[jtindall]

I have a grant in the works for a new plasma table. Norco did quotes for a new Arc Max Elite 4×8 CNC Plasma Table. I have run Plasma Cam 15 years ago then at another school I worked at we purchased an Arc Light 9600 in 2016 ran it for about 6 years and am currently back to the old 4 x 4 Plasma Cam. But pretty sure I am going to get to purchase the Arc Max Elite 4×8 CNC Plasma Table. Is it as good as they say???? they being other welding shop teachers. Would take any advice if anyone has experience with this machine.

I have had some limited experience with the Arclight tables and have been pretty impressed with the build and operation of them but I have no long term experience. Was your experience in 2016 with them a good one? If so I would certainly go that route over the Plasmacam.
