Laguna Plasmas
The Laguna SmartCut plasma CNC machines cut steel, aluminum, and stainless on a welded steel frame with helical rack and pinion on X and Y axes and ball screw on Z. Both the SmartCut and SmartCut+ use NEMA 32 servo-capable drives, a 24-inch control screen, torch height control, and automatic lead-in on restart. The difference is the table: the SmartCut uses a down-draft table; the SmartCut+ uses a water table for cleaner fume capture and reduced slag on thicker plate.

SmartCut vs SmartCut+: Choosing Your Plasma Table
Both Laguna plasma machines share the same welded steel frame construction — no aluminum extrusion, no bolt-together table. X and Y axes run helical rack and pinion; Z runs ball screw. The drive system uses NEMA 32 stepper motors with an optional servo upgrade. Both include torch height control (THC), a 24-inch control screen, automatic lead-in on restart, GH20 Hiwin bearing carriages, a laser precision pointer, and lifetime phone support.
The difference is the table system. The SmartCut uses a down-draft table with 7-gauge mild steel slats that pulls fumes and particulate downward for extraction. The SmartCut+ uses a water table — slats sit in a water bath that captures slag and suppresses fumes at the source. Water tables are preferred for thicker plate cutting and shops that want to minimize airborne particulate without a separate extraction system.
Frequently Asked Questions
What metals do the Laguna SmartCut plasma cutters handle?
Laguna SmartCut plasma machines cut mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and other conductive metals. Cut capacity depends on the plasma torch unit paired with the table. Contact us for torch options and recommended cut thicknesses for your application.
Should I choose the SmartCut down-draft or SmartCut+ water table?
Down-draft tables work well for thinner material and shops with existing external fume extraction. Water tables are better for thicker plate where slag accumulation is heavier and for shops that want integrated fume suppression without a separate exhaust system.
