Proven Optical Tracing Technology. Westinghouse-branded Linatrol “Magic Eye” scanners have long been the go-to solution for optical tracing on profile cutting machines. With models like the HL‑71B, HL‑90 and HL‑93, fast and accurate cutting is achieved. Easy to calibrate, they reliably convert hand-drawn lines into CNC-cut paths.
Simple, Effective, and Cost‑Efficient. These systems need minimal operator training and no software. The robust optical tracer and servo drive mechanism allow quick setup and consistent results. Making them a budget-friendly upgrade compared to modern CNC retrofits.
Ideal for Retrofit and Ongoing Support. Still in use on legacy cutters like ESAB, BOC Minigraph, or Koike, Linatrol systems can be fitted to older plasma or oxy-fuel machines. We stock complete units, drives (Pittman 2.5 etc.) and controllers. As well as other spare parts to support aftermarket improvements and machine longevity.
Field-Tested Durability. The scanners and drives are built to withstand workshop conditions. With proper lighting and alignment, scanners like the HL‑90 perform reliably. Field technicians note the importance of spare lamps and correct height for optimal performance.
