A profile cutting apparatus comprising:
- a cutting head supporting a nozzle through which a cutting medium passes, and at least two drives that drive the cutting head to tilt relative to a vertical axis while driving the cutting head to rotate about the vertical axis, wherein the tilt of the cutting head is achieved by the relative difference in motion between the two drives.
A profile cutting apparatus comprising:
- a cutting head supporting a nozzle through which a cutting medium passes, at least two drives that drive the cutting head to tilt relative to a vertical axis while driving the cutting head to rotate about the vertical axis, and a delivery column through which cutting medium passes from a top thereof and which rotates with the cutting head so that a conduit can deliver the cutting medium from the bottom of delivery column to the cutting head without twisting.
