FEATURES

The Trident incorporates the best technology available. With high-quality, high-performance features as standard, the Trident provides the best return on your investment.

Features

Choice of Knife Tools

Oscillating Knife: Easily slices materials such as soft or hard foam. Operating at an increased speed of 12k and 1.5mm per stroke, it delivers a clean-cut edge in a faster, quieter cutting process.

Tangential Knife: Cuts a wide range of harder, heavier material with its multiple blade options. Combined with the new tool changer, it brings a new level of automation to your business.

Router Spindle Options

Choose from manual, quick-release, high-power and high-speed spindles which can operate at speeds up to 40,000rpm. These allow effortless processing of tough materials such as aluminum, acrylic and woods.

Solid Machine Base

The Trident shares the same modular frame design as our popular AXYZ Infinite model. This means a stronger structure to support the most demanding cutting processes.

Zoned Vacuum Deck

All Trident machines have machined aluminum vacuum decks to maximize material hold-down for quality cutting and reduced waste.

Helical Rack and Pinion with Servo Motors

The helical rack and pinion provides superior high-speed performance delivering greater accuracy, smoother cutting and quieter running. For high-volume applications where cycle times need to be kept to a minimum, the powerful servo drives can increase productivity.

SmartConsole

Full machine control at your fingertips for fast and easy machine setup in an intuitive and compact package.

Pumps and Blowers

Select from a range of high-power pumps or blowers to suit machine size and application requirements.

MACHINE OPTIONS

You can customize the Trident with a multitude of options to improve accuracy, flexibility, productivity, and quality. Call an AXYZ Technical Specialist today and choose the options that best meet your business needs.

Process Areas

Choose from 4 different configurations:

• 60” x 98” | 1.5m x 2.5m
• 60”x120” | 1.5m x 3m
• 72”x120” | 1.8m x 3m
• 85”x120” | 2.1m x 3m
• Additional lengths available ‘a la carte’

Spray Mister

Certain materials, in particular Aluminum and other non-ferrous metals, often cut better with a small amount of lubricant or coolant. The Unist Mister option will automatically apply a pre-set amount to the tool during cutting and is compatible with all pressure feet options.

Dust Collection

When using routing spindles the removal of dust and debris is vital for good quality edge finish and for health and safety. The AXYZ High Capacity and Universal 5Y Pressure Feet are designed to assist material hold down and also maximize extraction under all types of cutting conditions.

Tool Length Sensor

In addition to the standard automatic tool-length sensor, which ensures accurate cut depths of your tools, a knife tool sensor that eliminates the need to manually qualify the knife.
