Indexing Tip for PTM/IPT-60 Torch Tools

7 Like
Summary

Indexing tip for PTM-60. Screws onto torch head in place of retaining cap/shield cup. A standard electrode can remain on the head. This would be a cheap easy alternative if you have access to a 3D printer, instead of installing and aligning lasers. May even assist in aligning lasers. Should work with any torch that takes the same retaining cap or shield cup. If the attached DXF is used, it needs to be 'Revolved' and threads added to inside shoulder in Fusion 360 or other editing program. The STL file can be found in the Langmuir Forum: https://forum.langmuirsystems.com/t/3d-printed-indexing-tip-for-ptm-ipt-60/15703 Threads are M18 x 1.0. Initial thread-on will be a little tight as male torch head cleans up the printed threads. This leaves a small amount of plastic shavings on the torch threads that needs to be cleaned off.
