- I finally found enough time to finish assembling my Crossfire Pro. Over all, my first impressions are very positive. Absolutely amazed at the FireControl software...
Awesome video Joshua, glad to see you up and cutting. Let us know if you ever have questions or need support!
Can't wait to get mine... in my case, waiting for the new house and workshop to be built... I have no space where we live now, to have it... But in the words of that famous philosopher: "It will be mine. Oh yes. It will be mine!" - Wayne Campbell
can't wait to get mine...... still jammed up in the que somewhere between now and june.....
Really? Says they should ship may if u order today feb 18
I need one of these!
I found out about the product from Mike Festiva a couple weeks ago. You were doing a good job with your review so I gave you a Like & Subscribe! I hope that you can get your numbers up!
Awesome! Thank you!
Got to get me one of those
Do you have problems with the gantry bearings? I know this video is older but it's old enough to review the bearings
This machine has been in continuous service and used nearly every day since this video was uploaded. In that time frame, I have never replaced a gantry bearing or had one go bad on me. It is my opinion that the people that have gantry bearings fail, have the bearings drawn up too tight to the rail and don't allow for the inconsistencies of the tube. This table works as good today as the day this video was recorded. Absolutely no complaints!
@@joshuazimmerman8631 awsome, rank you!!! I have one on the way, so I was curious
Josh I'd like your opinion on the hypertherm 85 v/s the 65 as far as quality of cut and capability. Is it worth it in the long run. Im thinking I can be in the 85 set up for cnc mahcine for maybe 3800.00 or so. Would you do the same thing if you coul do it over? Still happy with the pro?
Our shop had a Hypertherm 65 when I started working there. Shortly afterward we upgraded to the 85, and have since bought a second 85. It's worth every additional penny, both in speed and capability. It's the most powerful plasma cutter in the world that can be run on single phase current. Now that I have access to three phase I wouldn't mind upgrading to the Hypertherm 125.
And yes, I'm still very happy with the Pro. A few things here and there that are to be expected with a first generation product but still an amazing value.
Ordered my pro on Dec 29th, still waiting on the frame..I hope it's as good as you say with the torch height control...I got their Razorweld 45 plasma cutter and was wondering if I should have got a Hypertherm ot HTP instead.
Hypertherm if you can afford it...
Where can I download which program installed instead of laptop mach3
Is there any other way of getting in touch with you down the road as questions come up? Thanks
I'm a member of both the Langmuir Support group and the Crossfire Owners group on Facebook. it's literally the only reason I'm on Facebook. If you're considering a Crossfire, I recommend you join...
Josh are they still using the same R&R controller board in the electronic controller case
The USB motion control board is a custom PCB made by Langmuir Systems. It contains all the inputs for torch height control all on one board.
I get my Pro this week. I have a Hypertherm Powermax 65 with a hand torch. Are you implying that an extra card is needed in the plasma machine to get the torch height control to work? I heard you said yours had one in it?
Yes, torch firing is accomplished through a CPC port in the back of the plasma cutter. It's a six-wire cable that connects to that port and the voltage divider card that gets installed inside the plasma cutter. The whole kit costs about $100 from hypertherm. And yes you will need it to run your torch height control....
To use the CPC port you also have to be using a machine torch. The torch fire terminals are locked out electronically when a hand torch is connected.
Joshua Zimmerman I have a Crossfire table now and upgraded like you. I was able to go into the machine and tap into the torch firing signal. Works great. Thanks a lot for the feedback.
I will need to get the voltage divider card though.
I probably followed your write up. I found it online on how to do it. Thanks for sharing and I will check out that cable set up.

That's awesome! 👍
You have any pictures of how u hooked up the voltage divider?
I don't believe I do, however, you should be able to find all the information and pictures you need on their website...
@@joshuazimmerman8631 ten four I found it thanks
Is the software hard to use? Will a 60gallon air Compressor work will this? Also does it give off a lot of smoke and sparks?
The software definitely has a learning curve, but once you've learned it it's fairly straightforward. As far as an air compressor, you need to check what CFM it is putting out. And as far as smoke and sparks, The water table greatly reduces the smoke and fumes, but there will always be sparks with a plasma...
Joshua Zimmerman what cfm do I need? Thanks so much for the replay.
Do any of you guys have the 100$ off coupon code ?
Still got this system?
Yes I still have the very machine in this video. It runs everyday.
Looking to get my a table. Traveling is getting old. Plus me and the wife have a retail buzz already. I can add to it with plasma cutting.
Pravoooooo
Who has had neighbours complain about hearing or smelling this machine run??
This is a horrible company to deal with. In a nutshell I ordered what was advertised as a no hassle pre-order cancellations. Well long story short they 1. I requested to cancel the pre-order 2. They updated their return policy, removed the no hassle bit and then stuck on a cancellation fee. Thats some shady business practices. What kind of a company does this??
Before you buy, do your research and you will find this is chinese junk
I haven't experienced anything you're describing. Nothing but top notch support and I've ran both the Original and the PRO machine continuously for nearly 2 years... I'm sorry you had a bad experience...
I would have to disagree. I have a feeling you are hard to please. If you didn’t get the machine how can you say it’s Chinese junk?
@@jasongrinnell1986 Promised a 100% cancellation/refund. Not refunded 100%. How am I hard to please exactly? I just want what we agreed on.
Fact is, they are made in china. Why do you think they do them in 'batches' aka slow boat from china.
