A word on Hypertherm’s cut capacity ratings
There is no industry standard for capacity ratings; be sure to understand the basis for competitive claims. Capacity ratings for mechanized applications are determined by piercing capability. The recommended capacity is the thickness that can be pierced without excessive wear on the consumable parts. The maximum capacity is the thickness that can be pierced, though with reduced consumable life.
