About the Star Lab 4×8 CNC Plasma Cutting Table

USA-Built Industrial Platform: Precision linear rails, fast torch height control, and heavy-duty frame. Configure stepper or servo motion, waterbed or downdraft, plus routing and tube cutting capabilities.

Why Fabrication Shops Choose Star Lab

The Star Lab 4×8 isn't just another plasma table—it's a proven industrial platform built to handle everything from delicate 26-gauge work to 2" steel plate. Every component is engineered for precision and longevity.

🏗️ Industrial Build Quality

Fully welded OSHA-blue frame, unitized and CNC bridge-milled after powder coat for perfect alignment

⚡ Precision Motion

Hardened & ground profile linear rails (no wheels on rod) with scrapers and wipers

🎯 Rigid Z-Axis

Proton Z with twin 25mm rails, speeds up to 500 IPM, magnetic breakaway with collision stop

📈 High-Speed THC

Tracks height at recommended cut speeds with hole slowdown and presets for all materials

Choose Your Motion Package

Stepper Motion (Standard)

  • Resolution: 0.0004″ precision
  • Speed: Rapids ~600 IPM, cutting up to ~400 IPM
  • Range: 26 gauge to 2″ steel
  • CNC-machined reduction units with wide gear rack for longevity

Servo Motion (Premium Option)

  • High Speed: Rapids 1600+ IPM, Z-axis 450+ IPM
  • Precision: Closed-loop encoder feedback, 0.0002″ resolution
  • Efficient: Runs on standard 120 VAC
"The servo upgrade transforms productivity—especially for high-volume shops running complex parts all day long."

Table Systems

Water table cutting thin sheet, minimal distortion

Waterbed (Standard)

Controls smoke and vapor while cooling parts and stabilizing geometry. Typical depth of ~3″ on smaller tables, with deeper options available for specialized applications.

Downdraft (Optional)

Perfect for HVAC shops—parts come off dry and ready for immediate handling. Especially strong for 20-26 gauge work at recommended speeds.

Height Sensing & THC

Ohmic Sensing (Standard)

Ideal for thin materials with minimal deflection for precise start points

Floating Head (Available)

Fast plate reference (≈125 IPM) for submerged cutting or heavily rusted stock

Expand Your Capabilities
