The CombiCut series
Built for the most extreme environmental variables
The CombiCut series | Reliable & flexible
The CombiCut series is a cutting machine that can combine numerous technologies and torches on one portal. Due to its extremely resistant and robust design, it is the ideal production helper even under hard environmental variables and impresses with its enormous reliability even in three-shift operation. Designed for precise oxyfuel cuts, it enables the cutting of material thicknesses up to 300 mm and can also be extended with an additional support for plasma cuts. If required, up to 8 oxyfuel torches can work on the robust portal for the fastest possible parallel cutting operation.
Additionally, the CombiCut can be equipped with the technologies plasma rotator for bevel cuts, 3-torch unit (oxyfuel), drilling units up to 40 mm diameter or various marking tools. The processing of profiles, beams and domes is possible optionally.
"We were convinced by the combination of pipe and sheet metal cutting machine. Of the technology, we liked MicroStep best. We are satisfied with the system, it runs very well," says Pierre Ruble, Production Manager Mecasem – Groupe MM.
These customers rely on MicroStep and benefit from the CombiCut
"The system works very well, it really runs great. I would buy it again with the exact same configuration."

Software
Software from MicroStep® – developed especially for cutting
To allow you to concentrate fully on your production, our MicroStep® software solutions, drawings and cutting plans help you to intuitively convert them into finished components. Part of our product range also includes automation solutions for the organization of your entire cutting process.
Asper Basic
Asper Basic is the ideal tool for an easy and fast creation of NC programs for different cutting technologies (plasma, oxyfuel, laser or waterjet).
Asper Nesting
With Asper Nesting, you can easily and intuitively nest component drawings into efficient cutting plans.
MicroStep mCAM
mCAM is an efficient tool for the automated 3D production on pipes, profiles, domes, IPE carriers but also flat sheets with cutting systems of different technologies.
MPM Production Management
MPM forms the basis for automated cutting. It automatically nests complex cutting jobs and projects on the right material and distributes the cutting plans to cutting machines for processing.
Control
Handles even the most complex cutting tasks – the iMSNC® machine control
iMSNC® from MicroStep is one of the most advanced control systems for CNC cutting machines. It was developed to easily, reliably, and efficiently turn cutting plans into finished parts with the help of a clear and modern user interface.
MicroStep iMSNC® machine control
The intelligent solution for multi-technology work
iMSNC® from MicroStep is one of the most advanced control systems for CNC cutting machines. It was developed to easily, reliably, and efficiently turn cutting plans into finished parts with the help of a clear and modern user interface. The system’s hardware consists of a stand-alone control console with a TFT touchscreen and a control panel with an LCD display mounted on the gantry. In order to achieve maximum utilization and flexibility of our machines, the ergonomic control console offers the opportunity to nest new cutting programs and generate new CNC codes during an ongoing cutting process. As the iMSNC® control system and all CAM software solutions come from our company, the software with its versatile modules can be individually customized for your production. Parameter databases for individual technologies enable consistently high quality under various circumstances. iMSNC® comes with multiple efficient evaluation tools for production process optimization. These provide you with the much-needed overview of current cutting orders, cutting times, cost calculations and machine utilization in day-to-day production.
