Powermax SYNC beats oxyfuel
When it comes to cutting metal, two widely used thermal processes are oxyfuel and air plasma. While oxyfuel is a proven method, Hypertherm’s Powermax SYNC® air plasma systems provide many significant advantages over oxyfuel, including easier and more versatile operation, faster speeds, better cut quality, and lower operating costs.
Some of the Powermax SYNC benefits:
- Single-piece, color-coded cartridge consumable simplifies inventory and reduces operator errors and training time.
- Advanced torch communication sets correct amperage and operating mode, eliminating setup errors.
- Convenient controls right on the SmartSYNC™ torch make it easy to adjust your amperage and change consumables without returning to the power supply.
Common applications
- Drag cutting
- Bevel cutting
- Gouging
- Cutting complex shapes or fine features
- Flush cutting
- Extended-reach cutting
- Scrapping and skeleton cutting
