Swifty CNC cutting machines
The Swifty is a versatile CNC plasma cutting machine that offers great value for smaller workshops, education and artists. It’s easy to use, with a variety of cutting capabilities. All that’s required from the customer to operate it is a power source, an air compressor and a laptop or PC.
The Swifty is an industry leading self-assembly, easy install CNC plasma cutting machine. Lightweight and compact but seriously robust – it’s changing the way workshops and studios are cutting metal on a global scale and bringing metal cutting in-house for more and more businesses.
Ideal for small artists workshops to colleges right through to the manufacturing industry, the Swifty is the low-cost machine with big potential. Self-assembly is easy with the online installation manuals and ‘How To’ videos, and the aftercare and support that Swift-Cut is renowned for comes as standard.
