CLN no longer manufactures plasma tables.
As cutting technology has advanced, we have transitioned to a more precise, efficient solution designed for modern fabrication environments. Our current focus is on CNC laser cutting tables, which deliver cleaner cuts, tighter tolerances, and improved production efficiency across a wider range of applications.
If you are currently evaluating plasma tables, the next generation of cutting performance is available in our laser systems.
Plasma cutting has been a reliable solution for many years, but fabrication shops are increasingly moving toward laser systems for better performance and long-term efficiency.
CLN made the shift to laser cutting technology to provide:
For shops focused on quality, repeatability, and scaling production, laser cutting offers a clear advantage.
| Feature | Plasma Cutting | Laser Cutting (CLN) |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | Moderate | High |
| Edge Quality | Rougher finish | Clean, minimal finishing |
| Material Flexibility | Strong for thicker metals | Wide range with more control |
| Speed | Fast for certain cuts | Faster with higher consistency |
| Automation | Limited | Advanced integration |
| Maintenance | Higher | More efficient long-term |
Laser cutting systems have become the preferred solution for many fabrication environments that previously relied on plasma.
CLN laser tables are designed for shops that need precision, efficiency, and reliability at scale.
Our systems combine advanced motion control, high-performance laser options, and rugged U.S.-built construction to support demanding production environments.
Featured System: XB-97 Blacktip
The XB-97 Blacktip represents the next generation of CLN cutting technology, built to handle a wide range of materials and applications.
CLN laser tables are used across a wide range of industries and production environments, including:
Every CLN machine is backed by a support system designed to minimize downtime and keep production moving.
If you originally came here looking for plasma cutting equipment, you’re not alone. Many shops are still familiar with plasma, but are now upgrading to laser systems for better performance and efficiency.
Our team can help you determine whether a laser table is the right fit for your workflow and production goals.
Plasma cutting uses ionized gas to cut material, while laser cutting uses focused light. Laser systems provide higher precision, cleaner edges, and require less post-processing.
CLN transitioned to laser cutting systems to provide more advanced, efficient, and precise solutions for modern fabrication shops.
CLN laser tables can cut materials including steel, aluminum, copper, plastics, and composites, depending on the laser configuration.
For most applications, laser cutting offers better precision, cleaner cuts, and improved efficiency compared to plasma.
Laser cutting systems are used in metal fabrication, sign making, marine manufacturing, industrial production, and plastics processing.
Plasma cutting played an important role in fabrication for years. Today, laser technology offers a more advanced path forward.
If you’re evaluating your next machine, now is the time to move toward a system built for precision, speed, and long-term efficiency.
