Benefits of Upgrading a Used CNC Plasma Table:
- Cost-Effectiveness: Upgrading can be more affordable than buying a new system, especially if the table’s core structure is still in good condition.
- Customization: Upgrades allow customers to tailor the system to their specific needs, such as adding advanced software or improving cutting capabilities.
- Familiarity: Retaining the existing table means operators don’t need to learn a completely new system, saving time on training.
- Sustainability: Upgrading reduces waste and promotes the reuse of existing equipment, aligning with eco-friendly practices.
Advantages of Purchasing a New System from Fab-Cut Systems:
- Latest Technology: Fab-Cut Systems offers cutting-edge CNC plasma tables with advanced features like high-definition plasma cutting and integrated software
- Reliability: A new system comes with warranties and technical support, ensuring peace of mind and minimizing downtime
- Efficiency: New tables are designed for optimal performance, with faster cutting speeds and improved precision
- Scalability: Fab-Cut Systems provides modular and customizable options, allowing businesses to scale their operations as needed
Ultimately, the decision hinges on your budget, operational requirements, and long-term goals.

Upgrade Your Existing Oxy/Fuel or Plasma Tables
Its easier than you think to upgrade your old CNC system with our Retro Packages. Fab-Cuts Retro Packages include new motors, cables, controller, computer, and our easy to use 3in1 CAD/CAM/CNC software or you can simply install a turnkey custom-sized gantry kit to fit on your existing table.
We offer upgrade packages to many brands in the marketplace including: Koike, Machitech, Esab, Messer, EZ Cut, PlasmaCam, Fastcut CNC, Multicam, CANDCNC, Tracker, TruCut CNC, DynaTorch, Northern Plasma, Westcott Plasma Inc, Precision Cutting Systems, and many others. If you are currently using a Mach 3 software platform then you would find that upgrading to our Flashcut 3in1 CAD/CAM/CNC software is much easier to learn and use.
As an example, below is an older 6×52 ft water table system with our High-Def Gantry installed at the Customers shop. This kit allows customers a new plasma system for a fraction of the price.

For Torchmate Owners
If you have a system that was purchased after 2009 or before December 2015, we can easily upgrade your software and operating system so that you have the most updated operating available. Please note that the all-in-one CAD/CAM/CNC is NOT AVAILABLE from Torchmate as you are running version 4.0 software and we will upgrade you to the powerful version 7.0 software.
If you have a Torchmate 4400 or 4800 that is fitted with an Accumove controller and are considering a system upgrade, we can help support you in upgrading your system. Give us a call to discuss your options.
For existing owners of Kickass Machines
We offer an easy upgrade solution for your Kickass Machine (formerly from Edmonton, Alberta).
- Retain Stepper Motors: Existing stepper motors can remain in use, saving costs.
- Upgrade Components: Assistance is available for upgrading cables, controllers, computers, and CAD/CAM/CNC software for enhanced functionality.
- Torch Height Control: While manual adjustment using a hand pendant is compatible, an upgrade to automatic torch height control is strongly recommended for improved ease of use and superior cutting quality.
