and insulation of the torch handle. Then isolate the workbench
from the ground, Or install no-load open-circuit relay in the
electrical control system.
-4. The cutting operator and assistant must wear labor protection articles by regulation and take
safety measures to prevent electric shock, high-altitude falling, gas poisoning, fire or any other
accidents.
-5. The site should build rain-proof, damp-proof and sun-proof machine shed, and install

1. Stinger Description
1.1. What is Stinger?
The CNC plasma cutting machine, Spark Pro, has a very lightweight structure. The total weight is
just 200kg, but it is in a higher working size. And it is also higher configured with THC for plasma
cutting. It is a very good choice for the studio and for the university and for smaller workshops.
If you have such a working scene, for small parts production, furniture decoration, or any other
metal works, stop outsourcing your cutting needs and put a production-capable machine in your shop
at a fraction of the price. COMPACT, SMART, AND AFFORDABLE. Spark Pro takes its advantages to the
limit.
