| New Powermax compact plasma cutting system Hypertherm has unveiled new compact plasma cutting system, the Powermax30. The Powermax30 is designed for true on-the-job use with an array of operator friendly features. These include a tapered torch engineered to provide improved arc visibility and flexibility in hard-to-reach locations. The 20 lbs. Powermax30 is compact and portable, yet powerful, capable of cutting up to 3/8" and severing up to ½" metals. The new system is designed for tough environments and ideal for applications in the automotive, aviation, steel construction, farming, site maintenance, HVAC fabrication/installation, plumbing, and any other job requiring flexible, on-the-spot metal working. It is available with a carrying case that includes a circle-cutting guide, gloves, system shoulder strap, and additional consumables. The plasma technology behind the Powermax30 is ideal for manual cutting of mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum across a wide range of thicknesses. The Powermax30 has high cut quality, small heat-affected zone, and simple user interface. The new manual 30 Amp plasma cutting tool is small, light, and powerful. An operator can easily carry the 12 x 6.6 x 14" wide tool, while efficiently cutting through a maximum 3/8" metal, with a speed up to ten times higher than the oxyfuel or other traditional methods using nibblers, snips and cutting wheels. Advanced software design delivers increased re-firing capability on expanded metal, up to 3 times. The Powermax30 also has a superior versatility and performance, delivering high cut speed and quality. With its auto-voltage, the Powermax30 combines the convenience of 115 V operation, with the added capacity supported by 230 V input. The post-flow cooling feature provides longer torch life and greater flexibility in consumable handling. An interrupt feature automatically stops the post-flow cooling for rapid re-firing. Safety interlocks deactivate the torch when consumables are removed. A built-in parts compartment keeps consumables close at hand. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
