Key advantages of Powermax® systems
- Superior speed of plasma cutting results in shorter cut times and greater productivity over processes such as oxyfuel or saws.
- Easy to set up and operate.
- Piercing capability makes starting interior cuts easy.
- High cut quality reduces or eliminates secondary operations, such as grinding.
- Drag-cutting technology makes it easy to follow a line or template.
- Gouging process efficiently removes existing welds with reduced noise and smoke over conventional methods.
- System portability offers ease of use at various locations.
- Controlled arc and high cutting speeds reduce heat-affected zone and warping.
- Cut a variety of ferrous and non-ferrous metals including mild steel, stainless and aluminum – painted or rusted.
- FineCut® consumables deliver higher quality cut with less dross, narrower kerf and smaller heat-affected zone.
