I am extremely impressed with the Hypertherm Powermax. I believe it is a machine that can be used efficiently and effectively all across the world. The quality of the cut is excellent too. Is very efficient. I find it a lot quicker than using the oxyfuel and the grinder. And it is a lot safer.”

Education

Benefits like avoiding consumable loading mistakes, quicker part change-outs, better cut quality, and longer consumable life. The system makes it easier for students to learn and make changes as they complete their jobs. Instructors claim it is more cost-effective because the cartridge data lets them see when the cartridge is ready to change out, taking the guesswork out of plasma consumables.

Our operation became much faster and cheaper after we acquired the Powermax SYNC, as in addition to being able to work with a single cartridge for many hours, we can also get information about the cuts we have made to further optimize our processes.”

Torches and cartridges

SmartSYNC torch family

With simple cartridge installation, automated set-up, and RFID technology, Hypertherm’s SmartSYNC torches are the smart choice when plasma cutting and gouging. Controls right on the handheld torch make it easy to adjust your amperage and change consumables without returning the power supply.

Hypertherm cartridges

Hypertherm’s new cartridge consumable completely eliminates the traditional five-piece consumable stack-up with a single color-coded piece that you simply twist onto your torch. The result is a simplified consumable inventory and maximized performance.
