Construction and heavy equipment
Quicker, easier, and safer than oxyfuel, saws, and cut-off wheels, Hypertherm systems play an important part in the manufacture and repair of heavy-duty equipment like bulldozers, dump trucks, and other construction vehicles. Proprietary Hypertherm technology such as True Bevel™ helps manufacturers cut parts with beveled angles, enabling tighter fit-up when welding. FlushCut™ consumables can safely remove mounting brackets and implements without damaging the machine; they’re also suitable for hard facing removal.
Typical uses include:
- Manufacturing new equipment
- Repairing and replacing cutting edges
- Rebuilding damaged buckets and implements
- Gouging out old welds for quick on-site repair
- Gouging of hardfacing
- Fabricating new brackets for worn out equipment
- Automated plate edge finishing of A, V, Y and K bevel angles for weld preparation
