One-line value prop: Clean, chip-free scoring with an auto-tangential C-axis, on-table sheet alignment, and integrated oil/air and breakout controls—nest in S-CAM, cut on the machine.
Who uses it: Architectural/flat-glass fabricators · furniture/appliance glass · shopfitters & small OEM lines.
Works with: X-Y gantry tables with a C-axis rotary cutting head (pneumatic wheel up/down, oiling) and optional breakout/peeling hardware.
Works with: 2-axis flat-bed plasma/oxy-fuel cutters (XY). Optional Z lifter for pierce-safe approach.
Compatible controllers: PC-SMART 4A / PC-SMART 3AS / PC-PRO LAN 4A
Supported files: DXF (via Radonix SimpleCAM) and standard G-code.
XY gantry + C-axis head keeps the wheel exactly tangential to the path—no angle programming needed.
Absolute/Relative X, Y, C readouts, Velocity (mm/s) display, Home / X0 / Y0 buttons, and per-axis V (mm/s) & L (mm) step boxes for precise jogging.
Table Up status, soft limits, and a gridded preview frame for quick visual checks.
Outputs: Oil (G-OilPin), Blower, Z-Axis head Up/Down solenoid, Corner Jack Up/Down, Breaker bars 1–3.
Inputs: HomePin X/Y/C, Emergency, Z-Axis sensor, Corner Jack sensor, Foot Pedal (G-Pedal), optional Laser edge sensor.
Operator keys: Run / Pause / Reset, Speed 100% override slider, Blower and Peeling buttons, Frame / Auto Align tools.
SimpleCAM (S-CAM): define Sheets and Parts, set quantities and margins, Nest, Preview, choose feed (V mm/s) and Export to the interface.
On-machine: Open File, choose Sheet from the list, jog with X± / Y±, set X0/Y0, and (if needed) run Auto Align using the LaserSensor (SearchPrecision / SearchVelocity).
Start oil/air, confirm Z-AxisDelay, then Run; use Pause/Resume, Speed % override, and Peeling/Breaker helpers for controlled breakout.

In the standard XYC Glass Cut interface, Z is not in the toolpath (it’s a pneumatic up/down).
If you need Z to be planned and controlled during motion, choose XYZC Glass Cutter.
What it adds: A servo Z axis that is included in the motion plan (X-Y-Z-C), maintaining constant score depth/standoff on uneven sheets.
How it works: Uses a laser/capacitive sensor or pre-scan mesh to modulate Z in real time; supports TargetGap/Force, Gain/Deadband, Corner-hold, SafeZ retract, and manual Z trim.
When to use: Wavy/warped glass, coated/laminated sheets, or processes that require precise depth control (e.g., deep scoring, seaming/grinding heads).
Benefits: Uniform score depth, fewer chips, cleaner breakouts, higher first-pass yield.
Seamlessly load and execute DXF files without the need for G-code conversion — streamlining your workflow and reducing setup time.
Select specific parts from complex drawings and customize cutting order with intuitive control over toolpath sequencing.
Scale, rotate, and mirror parts directly within the interface — with live toolpath previews to ensure precision.
Manually drag and drop parts onto your material sheet to accommodate irregular shapes, pre-cut stock, or remnant reuse.
Set up to three independent pause points — before the cut, during the cut, and after the cut — for manual checks or operational adjustments.
Execute toolpaths in reverse to minimize material warping or adjust final exit points based on design needs.
Perform a complete motion test without activating the torch. Ideal for verifying the toolpath before live cutting.
Add sheets/parts, nest, preview, and export to the machine in one step.
Automatically sets X0/Y0 on the sheet using sensors—no manual probing.
Detects sheet edges/corners and rotates/shifts the program to match the actual placement.
Built-in I/O and timing for loaders/unloaders, with safety interlocks and up/down delays.
Ready for machines with a servo Z (XYZC Glass Cutter+) to manage standoff/depth on uneven sheets..
Drives proportional valves to regulate cutting-wheel pressure (and oil/air) for clean, chip-free scores.
