ABSTRACT:
A metal plate cutting machine has a transverse bridge which carries a master torch which is selectively driven therealong. A torch bar is suspended from the front side of the bridge by end slides which are freely movable along the bridge, with the bar carrying a plurality of slave torches. Both the master torch and the slave torches are clampable to the torch bar. The end slides are cantilevered rearwardly to form supports to which a torch supply cable festoon system is mounted. The supports also form part of a mount element which carries the cable manifold, electronic controls and the like. When the master torch is clamped to the torch bar and driven along the bridge, the torch bar and its related cantilevered slides and the festoon, manifold, and controls will likewise move along the bridge. When the torches are unclamped from the torch bar and the master torch driven along the bridge until it pushes the adjacent slave torches into a torch bar stop, the same elements will also subsequently be moved along the bridge.
