Hypertherm Plasma Cutter Features and Benefits
Cut metal quickly and cleanly
Plasma is created when gas is ionized by electrical energy. In Powermax systems, its intense heat (up to 22,000° C) is used to melt metal. Compressed air or nitrogen blows the molten metal away, leaving a clean edge that’s ready to weld in most cases.
Cut or gouge any electrically conductive metal
Whether in a shop, factory, at home, or in the field, Powermax systems cut and gouge all metal types and forms. Most Powermax models are available with a handheld or machine torch exactly tailored to your application.
Powermax advantages:
- Best performance in its class
- State-of-the-art consumable technology delivers faster speeds and better cut quality to help you get more done in less time
- High portability, simple controls and a stable plasma arc make Powermax systems easy to operate, even for beginners
- Long consumable life and fast cut speeds lower your cutting and gouging costs
Powermax system requirements:
